The Calix E7-2 GPON-8, line card provides eight ITU G.984 compliant Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) interfaces and four Gigabit Ethernet (GE) interfaces, along with two ports of integrated 10-Gigabit Ethernet. The E7-2 GPON-8, line card can be plugged into one or both of the two universal slots within a Calix E7-2 shelf. In a 1RU chassis, E7-2 supports sixteen PON's, up to 64 Optical Network Terminations (ONTs) for a total of 1024, plus eight point-to-point Ethernet subscribers and two 10GE ports. The E7-2 GPON-8 card supports a full set of Ethernet services and network topology protocols on the Ethernet ports and can be used interchangeably with other E7-2, line cards to create a redundant system configuration.
