The newest addition to the Calix ESAN family, the B6-006 chassis incorporates design advancements that simplify chassis installation, reduce turn-up time, and increase operational flexibility by integrating the intelligent interconnect architecture connections directly into the physical backplane. The B6-006 is designed for medium density deployments, featuring six line card slots and supporting up to 288 point-to-point Gigabit Ethernet / Active Ethernet subscribers or up to 768 GPON subscribers. The chassis features an integrated backplane with up to 20 Gbps of bandwidth capacity per slot. Local connections are provided by ten 10/100/1000BaseT Gigabit Ethernet ports and network transport is provided by pluggable 10GE and GE fiber transceivers. Any B6 line card can be deployed in any slot and in any configuration, with self-discovery and network configuration settings automatically loaded in the B6-006 chassis. The B6 chassis is 7 RU high and can be horizontally mounted in a 19-inch or 23-inch relay rack or OSP cabinets.
