7-Port Gigabit Industrial Managed Temperature Hardened Layer 2 Ethernet Switch

Broadband Amplifiers (BBA)

Actelis Broadband Amplifiers (BBA) are field proven, high-performance solutions that enable service providers and enterprises to extend and expand the delivery of high-bandwidth, high-quality Carrier Ethernet services over DSL (VDSL2, ADSL/2/2+).  In fact, Actelis BBA products have demonstrated overall rate gain downstream improvements of greater than 100% over non-amplified lines.

Our Broadband Amplifiers can be used to extend residential broadband, business Ethernet services as well as Ethernet transport services for Mobile/WiFi/DSLAM backhaul. The Actelis BBA can work with any vendor’s DSLAM connected to an Actelis’ Ethernet Access Device such as our GigaLine 800 or MetaLight 600 for high speed link or to any other CPE/NTU. The BBAs are remotely powered either from POTS, sealing current or using express powering. Express Powering  can be used to power more than one line. The BBAs are transparent to Vectoring and bonding.
