Genexis expands FiberTwist Series with next-gen ONT with two 10GE LAN ports: XGS2418
Genexis, a leading PON Optical Network Terminal (ONT) vendor in Europe, continues to expand its FiberTwist portfolio by introducing FiberTwist XGS2418. Known for its Do-It-Yourself (DIY) installation due to the mechanism of a single “twist,” FiberTwist XGS2418 is a new-generation premium XGS-PON ONT. In the growing trend of high-speed open access networks, customers have asked for a solution that enables seamless transitions between Internet Service Providers (ISPs) without any service downtime, supporting speeds of up to 10 Gbps.
Featuring two 10GE LAN ports and two 1GE LAN ports, this ONT empowers end-users to effortlessly activate, upgrade, or switch between ISPs by simply plugging into the appropriate port, eliminating the need for costly truck rolls or interruptions in service. Tailored specifically for network operators adopting an open-access model, the FiberTwist XGS2418 enables the provision of multiple ISPs on a single ONT, further enhancing flexibility and choice for end-users.
Integrated across the entire FiberTwist portfolio is TrueTalkTM, Genexis’ innovative Passive Optical Network (PON) autosensing software. Interoperability is seamless, as TrueTalkTM automatically detects the Optical Line Terminal (OLT) and connects to different OLT brands and line cards in your network via a single firmware version.
Key features of FiberTwist XGS2418:
- XGS-PON ONT with 2x 10GE LAN ports and 2x 1GE LAN ports
