The Calix 100-05610 XGS-PON optic is a high-speed optical transceiver module designed for use in XGS-PON (10 Gigabit Symmetrical Passive Optical Network) environments. Here's a breakdown of its key functions and features:

🔧 Primary Function

• Acts as an ONT (Optical Network Terminal) in an SFP+ form factor, allowing it to be plugged directly into compatible networking equipment.

• Supports XGS-PON technology, which delivers symmetrical 10 Gbps bandwidth over fiber, ideal for high-demand residential, business, and mobile backhaul applications.

⚙️ Technical Specifications

• Transmitter wavelength: 1270 nm

• Receiver wavelength: 1577 nm

• Interface: SC/APC connector

• Processor: MaxLinear PRX126 SoC running at 400 MHz

• Memory: 128 MB NAND flash and 1 GB LPDDR3 RAM

• Network support: 10G Ethernet PCS & MAC, SERDES/CDR

• Management access: HTTP(S) and SSH via HLX-SFPX interface

🚀 Use Cases

• Plug-and-play deployment in switches or routers with SFP+ ports

• Ideal for service providers upgrading to 10G fiber networks without replacing entire infrastructure

• Supports coexistence with GPON and NG-PON2 on the same fiber, enabling flexible network evolution
