U10 XGS-PON OLT

Key Features

Carrier-grade PON, without the chassis

U10 packs high-density XGS-PON into a 1U standalone unit — easy to install, easy to commission, and ready for multi-vendor networks.

Dual-mode PON, hot-switched

Each of the 8 PON ports runs XG(S)-PON by default (XGS-PON 10G/10G, XG-PON 10G/2.5G) and can be hot-switched to GPON mode individually — upgrade or reuse existing fiber without hardware swaps.

Full line-speed forwarding

1×GE (RJ45) + 4×25GE (SFP28) + 2×100GE (QSFP28) uplinks on a 1,960 Gbps backplane with 566.9 Mpps forwarding — no bottleneck at the aggregation layer.

Complete L2/L3 feature set

32K MAC, 4K VLANs, QinQ, LACP, QoS, IGMP snooping, DHCP server/relay, static + OSPF/RIP routing, T-CONT DBA and x-GEM — the full carrier feature stack in a pizza box.

Hardened for the field

6 kV power and 4 kV interface lightning protection, −20°C to +60°C operating range, 4-fan cooling, and AC 100–240 V power — built for central offices and remote sites.

Applications

Deployed your way

Three reference topologies — each built from UGrid products that work together end to end.

Carrier FTTH / greenfield

U10 feeds 1:256-split PON trees to UGrid XGS-PON or GPON ONTs. Dual-mode ports let you mix both on the same chassis during migration.

Enterprise / campus PoL

U10 aggregates FiberTrix GPON PoE switches — fiber to the floor, PoE to APs and cameras, all managed from one OLT.

Monitored FTTx

Pair with the uFT intelligent fiber testing system — real-time OTDR fault detection plus AI degradation forecasting on the same outside plant.
