Optical Transport for Digital Headend

The CHP Max5000 converges hub, headend, and digital transport onto one scalable platform. It is the perfect platform where the demand for HDTV, ever-increasing data downloads speed, VoIP and digital multicast are pressuring HFC operators. The CHP provides the highest density headend platform on the market, with up to 52% greater density than alternate offerings.

The latest addition to the CHP Max5000 product line is the 1 GHz CWDM 1291nm and 1311nm Forward Path Transmitters, the first in the industry to be ITU G.695 compliant for CWDM 20nm spacing.

This digital headend is, we believe, the first in the industry to be ITU G.695 compliant for CWDM spacing. This advanced CWDM transmitter is ideal for national broadband network and broadcast service providers looking to leverage their existing network architecture - without incurring the significant construction costs associated with additional fibre deployment - to support residential and business services.

1550 nm Broadcast Optical Transmitter

In August 2010, ARRIS released a cost effective stand-alone broadcast optical transmitter. Compared to others, it delivers more wavelengths with more reach.
