Positron Access' Breakthrough Delivers 800 Mbps over Copper at Real Service Distances

By Anshu Shrivastava, TMCnet Contributor


Metro Ethernet provider Positron Access has announced a breakthrough solution that delivers up to 800 Mbps Ethernet over copper at real life service distances.


A disruptive solution, FlexStream 800 delivers ultra high-speed business Ethernet services and LTE (News - Alert) wireless site backhaul. Company officials said that it’s in deployment trials at Tier 1 customers.

“With FlexStream 800, we have cemented our leadership in providing the highest bandwidth available on bonded copper. Service providers can now expand their footprint and their range of services offered,” said Claude Brisson, chief operating officer at Positron Access.

FlexStream 800 expands Positron’s Aktino (News - Alert) Ethernet over copper solution, which enables service providers to deliver bandwidth over the existing copper infrastructure and avoid long schedules of deploying fiber facilities.

In addition, Aktino delivers fiber-like reliability that meets the demanding requirements of wireless service providers and their customers’ demand for bandwidth, with over a ten-fold ROI advantage over fiber.

Positron’s FlexStream 800 is touted as the ideal solution for bandwidth intensive business services and LTE backhaul. The current Positron Aktino family of products will continue offering long reach performance up to 100 Mbps with line powering for SMB business services, DSLAM backhaul and 3G/Metro mobile backhaul, said company officials.

 “FlexStream 800 combines our revolutionary MIMO-on-DMT (News - Alert) technology with VDSL2 vectoring to deliver Ethernet over copper at rates that have not yet been practically achieved,” said Hossam Salib, vice president of product management and marketing at Positron Access.

The company now offers a true multi-service, symmetric/asymmetric bonded copper solution that provides bandwidths ranging from 100 Mbps to 800 Mbps at reaches from 1,000 to 65,000 feet, all from the same product platform, Salib said.
