Adtran has announced that Pulse Fibre has chosen its 10Gbit/s XGS-PON fiber access platform for the next phase of its network expansion. Focused on new housing developments, Pulse Fibre aims to deliver Gigabit and multigigabit services with symmetrical speeds of up to 10Gbit/s to over 250,000 homes in both rural and urban areas. This new network allows Pulse Fibre to provide property developers with early-stage connectivity for essential systems such as EV chargers and security networks. The strategic deployment utilizes Adtran’s scalable broadband technology, ensuring a flexible, future-proof network that can adapt to evolving subscriber demands.
“We’re excited to see our technology driving Pulse Fibre’s growth. Our solutions are designed for rapid deployment and comprehensive network management, empowering Pulse Fibre to provide fast, reliable internet to a wider range of subscribers,” said Stuart Broome, GM of EMEA sales at Adtran.
“This collaboration with Adtran is a pivotal step in our mission to deliver fast, reliable broadband to new housing developments across the UK. Adtran’s compact, energy-efficient technology enables connectivity during the construction process through our Construction Mode, allowing developers to seamlessly integrate smart infrastructure,” stated Robert Buckingham, operations director at Pulse Fibre. “For residents, we offer day-one connectivity, supporting work-from-home and smart home needs while aligning with our sustainability goals to minimize environmental impact and build a greener, more resource-efficient future.”
Pulse Fibre’s new solution is set to bring high-speed connectivity to an increasing number of households across the UK. It features Adtran’s high-performance optical network terminals (ONTs) and software-defined optical line terminals (OLTs), all supported by the Mosaic Cloud Platform (Mosaic CP). Adtran’s SDX 6320 OLT simplifies the expansion of services across diverse environments, from rural villages to densely populated urban centers, with a strong focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. The Mosaic CP adds intelligence to the network, enabling flexible, programmable management that accelerates service activation, reduces operational complexity, and maximizes profitability by shortening revenue cycles.
“It’s about creating a network that meets the high-speed streaming and gaming demands of today while ensuring future readiness. Our technology will enhance the digital experience for Pulse Fibre’s customers and support economic growth and innovation in the communities they serve,” Broome added.
