844G and 854G GigaCenters | ANSI

D E S C R I P T I O N
The Calix 844G and 854G GigaCenters are next generation residential
premises service delivery platforms that extend the access network into
the home and act as a strategic location for control of the gigabit
experience. Supporting broadband connectivity within the home and
managing subscriber voice, data and video services, this intelligent,
high-performance service platform integrates a 2.5 GPON optical
interface with switching and routing functions that manage premises
network traffic at speeds up to 1 Gbps. The GigaCenter service
interfaces include: carrier class wireless networking with 802.11ac Wi-Fi
and four Gigabit Ethernet (GE) ports for IPTV video and data services,
two integrated voice lines supporting carrier grade VoIP and network-
based TDM voice circuits, a USB port for home networking services, and
an option for RF video.

GIGABIT SUBSCRIBER EXPERIENCE: The 844G and 854G GigaCenters are integrated access and gateway solutions that
deliver advanced network management and software features to unleash the gigabit experience throughout a subscriber’s
home. The GigaCenter service delivery platform terminates a GPON fiber optic link at the subscriber's premises and provides
carrier class Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for customer multi-media devices. The 844G and 854G GigaCenters enable
residential subscribers to receive gigabit broadband data, IP video, and VoIP or TDM based voice on a single fiber. Using the
latest 802.11ac 5GHz technology incorporating 4x4 multi-user multiple-input and multiple-output (MU-MIMO) and
beamforming, the 844G and 854G GigaCenters allow service providers to extend the access network inside the home and
establish a strategic location for the delivery and control of broadband services. A USB port is available for home networking
with other Ethernet appliances. The GigaCenter family also includes the option of RF signaling for broadcast video services
over existing Hybrid Fiber Coax (HFC) networks.

Calix engineered the 844G and 854G GigaCenters for optimal whole-home coverage with simultaneous dual-band 2.4GHz
and 5GHz operation and dynamic beamforming at 5GHz. For maximum performance, the GigaCenter supports high-power
2x2 MIMO spatial diversity at 2.4GHz and 4x4 MU-MIMO at 5GHz. The 844G and 854G GigaCenters support the entire
5GHz band including DFS channels and can be provisioned to support 80MHz bandwidth at 5GHz. The GigaCenter solution
delivers HD video and data throughout a subscriber’s home with control and management of an increasingly video-rich and
mobile broadband environment.

EASY TO INSTALL, ACTIVATE, AND MAINTAIN: With the 844G and 854G GigaCenters, Calix has redefined how to
install and activate residential services at a subscriber’s premises. Using the Calix Smart Activate feature and a phone or
laptop, a field technician can install and apply the subscriber’s service profile without special equipment or assistance from
the central office. Calix also provides the innovative Compass software portfolio, including Consumer Connect, which allows
the service provider to configure, activate and upgrade the GigaCenter quickly from a remote location using in-band
management or TR-069. Extensive troubleshooting capabilities, remote software downloads, and easy-to-use service
activation ensure that services are delivered and maintained without needless truck rolls and hardware upgrades. Employing
GigaCenters allows service providers to reduce their operational expenses while effectively delivering the gigabit experience
to their subscribers.

TRUE CARRIER GRADE VOICE SOLUTION: The 844G and 854G GigaCenters deliver a truly agile and responsive service
platform with lifeline voice in the event of local AC power loss. A carrier grade 120-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz AC to 12 VDC
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) provides battery backup of voice services compliant to Telcordia GR-909. The 844G and
854G GigaCenters can monitor battery status, battery charge and battery life, and report results through the Calix
Management System (CMS).
