With ever increasing demand for wireless data services and pressure for wireless carriers to expand their network coverage areas, the wireless backhaul has become a hot topic. The recent interest in wireless backhaul stems from the growing need to connect base stations with the core networks. With wireless average revenue per user (ARPU) flattening or even declining and the current leased T1/E1 backhaul solutions getting more expensive, carriers are looking for cost effective alternatives.

Alloptic's GEPON solution provides the bandwidth of a fiber network, the flexibility of packet or TDM transport, and the ability to serve wireless backhaul applications as part and parcel of your network. A separate network is not required to provide the high-reliability, high-bandwidth, long reach required to provide wireless backhaul service.
