FiberHome AN5516-06 Overview
The FiberHome AN5516-06 is a compact carrier-class MSAN/GPON integrated access product with intermediate capacity, deployed in central offices and equipped with 6 service slots to suit moderate-density access scenarios where large-capacity access equipment would be underutilized; as part of the AN5516 product series that offers three different sizes for diverse application scenarios—large-capacity (AN5516-01/AN5516-06B), medium-capacity (AN5516-06), and small-capacity (AN5516-04)—it supports multiple services including VoIP, TDM, data, IPTV, and CATV to meet triple-play requirements, and when used in conjunction with remote-end ONUs, it forms a complete convergence layer function.
Product Features
- Platform & Capacity: Hybrid MSAN/OLT platform supporting EPON, GPON, 10G PON, and P2P. Supports high-density access, with some configurations reaching 256 PON ports. Large backplane capacity (e.g., 3.52T or 1.92T) and switch capacity (e.g., 976G). Standard 19-inch rack design with 6-10 service slots.
- Access & Services: Provides broadband (FTTH, FTTB, FTTC), voice (VoIP, TDM), IPTV, and CATV. Supports various uplink options (GE, 10GE) and downstream interfaces (up to 16x16GE). Long-haul transmission with split ratios of 1:32/64/128 and Class C+ modules.
- Reliability & Management: Carrier-grade reliability with redundant power supplies, control/uplink cards, and hot-swappable components. End-to-end protection (RSTP/LACP on uplink, Type B/C on PON). Supports IEEE 1588v2, OSPF, RIP, VRRP (Layer 3 protocols). QoS guarantee with SLA/priority-based management for low latency.
- Design: Full front-board, front-line design for easy maintenance. Environmentally friendly with low power consumption and intelligent fan control.

Application Scenarios & Real-World Cases
Scenario 1. Suburban Triple-Play Deployment in Brazil
A major Brazilian telecom deployed FiberHome AN5516-06 OLTs in suburban São Paulo to deliver triple-play services. The medium-capacity device’s 6 service slots and support for VoIP, IPTV, and data services catered to 5,000+ households. Its compact design (550×460×380mm) fit small local exchange rooms, while compatibility with GPON/10G PON modules enabled flexible bandwidth scaling. Paired with remote ONUs, it formed a complete convergence layer, ensuring stable 4K streaming and video calls. The 1:256 splitting ratio and 60km transmission capability optimized coverage for spread-out suburban communities, aligning with the operator’s digital inclusion goals.
2. Enterprise & Residential Convergence in Southeast Asia
An Indonesian ISP adopted AN5516-06 OLTs for mixed-use developments in Jakarta. The carrier-class platform supported FTTH for residences and dedicated data/PBX services for small businesses via its MSAN/GPON integration. With 96 GE access capacity and Layer 2/3 wire-speed forwarding, it handled high-bandwidth demands from office cloud applications and home streaming. Dual power protection and hot-swappable components minimized downtime, critical for business continuity. Its ability to intermix GPON/EPON/10G PON modules allowed future-proof upgrades without replacing the chassis, reducing long-term investment costs.
