SEBA/VOLTHA-based whitebox vOLT with the multi-PON capability

SAMBHA16 vOLT is a 16-port multi-PON whitebox virtual Optical Line Terminal supporting Combo-PON, GPON, and XGS-PON with software based on the ONF’s SEBA/VOLTHA reference architecture to build flexible, high-performance, and real-time responsive networks in a cost-effective and sustainable manner.

SAMBHA16 vOLT is based on the 25G-PON ready Broadcom BCM68650 Aspen silicon and comes with a 300Gbps full-duplex switching capacity, including 2 x 100Gbps/40Gbps QSFP28 ports, and 16 x 12.5Gbps SFP+ ports in a 1RU height. The QSFP28 ports can be configured as 4 x 50Gbps or 8 x 10/25 Gbps using DAC breakout cables. SAMBHA16 vOLT has 2 redundant, hot-swappable, and load-sharing PSUs, offers carrier-class features such as VLAN tag manipulation and QoS, and is pre-loaded with Open Network Install Environment (ONIE).
