The GFTL is a 16-port XGS-PON OLT interface board compatible with N1/N2a modules, which can be applied to ZTE ZXA10 C600/C650/C680 OLTs and features a maximum optical split ratio of 1:256, along with support for optical power monitoring, the ALS function of optical modules and hot swapping to ensure efficient and reliable network operation and maintenance.
1: Urban FTTH Upgrade in Madrid, Spain
A top Spanish telecom deployed ZTE GFTL 16-port XGS-PON boards on ZXA10 C650 OLTs for Madrid’s dense residential broadband upgrade. Using N1 modules to reuse existing ODN, the GFTL achieved a 1:256 split ratio, serving 4,000+ households per board with symmetric 10Gbps speeds. Optical power monitoring and ALS ensured stable service, while hot-swappable design enabled zero-downtime maintenance, meeting the city’s surging demand for cloud gaming and home offices.
2. Smart Campus Deployment in Singapore
A leading Singaporean university adopted ZTE GFTL boards on ZXA10 C600 OLTs for its full-campus fiber transformation. Equipped with N2a modules, the boards delivered high-bandwidth connectivity to classrooms, labs, and dormitories via a 1:256 split ratio. Optical power monitoring simplified O&M, ALS protected equipment in shared server rooms, and hot-swappable capability guaranteed uninterrupted service for critical research data transmission and online courses.
