GiaX announces new
products for its Ethernet
over coax solution, HelEOS
/////////////////////////////

iaX, a German technology startup
bringing innovation to coaxial
networks, is introducing two new
additions to its product portfolio; the
ES1440-BK and the HelEOS Switch Node. the introduction of the Switch Node, cable
operators could use the HelEOS solution for
a single service only, typically Distributed
Access Architectures (DAA), Mobile Backhaul,
Fibre to the Business or Distributed PON.
The ES1440-BK is a versatile, feature rich 4
port 10G and 4 port 2.5G Ethernet Switch.
The HelEOS Switch Node is a HelEOS Gateway
with an integrated ES1440-BK Switch. By using the Switch Node cable, operators
can now use the HelEOS solution for multiple
services at once, significantly increasing
the versatility of the HelEOS solution and
bringing Node-as-a-Platform capabilities to
the BK architecture.
The Switch Node provides cable operators
with the capability to deploy the GiaX
HelEOS solution as a Virtual Node Split
solution. Both products are now available
for the BK network architecture. Prior to

“Deploying fibre for re-segmentation
purposes can be a serious CAPEX burden as
this is often associated with digging into the
ground, which tends to be labour-intensive,”
said Jörg Hellwig, CEO and Founder of GiaX.
“At GiaX we have developed an innovative
solution, HelEOS, that allows cable operators
to re-use the existing Coax network, re-
energising that network to offer standard-
based 10G Ethernet backhaul capabilities
for deployment of DAA architectures,
while having the flexibility to adapt to new
requirements in the future, such as FDX.
The HelEOS Switch Node is the latest
addition to the HelEOS solution, making
HelEOS ready for use in cable networks all
over the world.” n
