Calix, expands its comprehensive Aggregation Service Manager (ASM) portfolio for the Calix Broadband Platform with the Intelligent Access™ ASM1001 system while adding new operational efficiency capabilities for Calix Cloud®. The ASM1001 drives advanced Layer 3 routing deeper into the network, enabling broadband service providers (BSPs) to build a resilient, distributed service aggregation architecture that optimizes performance and streamlines operations. Updates to Calix Operations Cloud (part of Calix Cloud) give BSPs extensive monitoring, insights, and troubleshooting on service aggregation system health and VPN service connectivity.

Designed for the access network edge, the ASM1001 joins the centralized, high-capacity ASM5001 and ASM3001 subscriber management systems in helping BSPs simplify network operations and improve efficiency across any network, location, or technology. With unprecedented state and federal funding available to expand broadband access—especially in rural and underserved areas—BSPs can leverage the ASM1001 and new cloud capabilities for the Calix Platform to help scale and grow their businesses. The Calix ASM portfolio and additional Intelligent Access systems create an end-to-end solution for broadband service delivery that is fully eligible for Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program funding.

Leveraging Calix Platform updates and the new ASM1001, BSPs have:

  • More flexible options to build efficient, resilient networks in remote locations. Expanding the Calix ASM portfolio, the ASM1001 gives BSPs flexibility to deploy service aggregation and routing functions deeper into the network for better performance, streamlined operations, and improved network uptime. The ASM1001 for Intelligent Access is powered by AXOS® and offers temperature-hardened, Layer 3, 100G aggregation in a compact form factor. This optimizes performance, simplifies provisioning and management, and eliminates the need to add remote cabinets or utility buildings—lowering project costs and accelerating time to market.
  • End-to-end visibility with Operations Cloud for faster troubleshooting. New enhancements in Operations Cloud improve visibility for the Calix ASM portfolio, ideal for growing networks. With centralized VPN status monitoring, operators can easily identify impacts to the network without troubleshooting individual systems. Additionally, enhanced health monitoring and reporting capabilities seamlessly monitor network utilization and proactively identify and notify BSPs of XGS-PON and GPON service-impacting issues. Both innovations result in fewer trouble calls, faster issue resolution, and a more reliable experience for subscribers in dispersed, rural communities, complementing the innovation of the ASM1001.
  • Hands-on success and guidance to future-proof their network. Leveraging best practices from Calix Success™, BSPs can tap into deep technical expertise for the Intelligent Access solution. Success Guidance can assist Calix customers with planning and executing best practices to achieve their growth and performance goals, accelerate time to market, and modernize their network architecture.
