Mixed-source
•Showcases AI-powered network intelligence, remote OLTs and back-office integration platform
•Cuts deployment costs and power use for rural operators managing multi-vendor networks
The fact
Harmonic will showcase new fibre network technologies at Fiber Connect 2026 in San Jose. The portfolio includes an AI-powered network operations intelligence solution, a Pearl-1XL R-OLT module, a Jetty-3 remote node switch module, and a back-office fibre integration platform. The company also introduced Fin-Lite and Fin-2 within its Fin SFP-based OLT family, managed by the cOS virtualised core.
The Assessment
Harmonic is structuring its fibre portfolio across network intelligence, access hardware and orchestration software layers. The AI capability shifts operators away from reactive fault management towards predictive detection. Remote OLT and node products cut cost and power constraints in rural deployments. The integration platform tackles multi-vendor complexity to accelerate service activation.
What to Watch
Track operator trials of Harmonic's AI intelligence and integration platform after Fiber Connect, and remote OLT uptake in rural rollouts.
