Operating modern PON networks is becoming increasingly demanding: growing infrastructure, rising customer expectations and complex systems now require more than traditional operating models. The introduction of SDN platforms such as Nokia Altiplano, combined with AI (artificial intelligence) and ML (machine learning), is creating new opportunities - but also new requirements. Automation, predictive maintenance and intelligent fault detection make operations more efficient, but require in-depth specialised knowledge. At the same time, the search for suitable specialised personnel is becoming more difficult. The challenge: How can you manage this complexity without expanding your in-house operations? Managed Altiplano offers a complete, ready-to-go solution.
Nokia Altiplano is a modern SDAN orchestration platform that centralises, automates, and simplifies the operation of your entire access network. Whether fibre, copper, or fixed wireless, Altiplano abstracts technical complexity and delivers full control through a single interface. The platform leverages open standards and cloud technologies such as Kubernetes, microservices, and APIs to ensure maximum flexibility, scalability, and resilience. This enables you to deploy services faster, optimise network resources, and proactively resolve issues—even in multi-vendor environments. With Altiplano, you lower operational and integration costs, minimise the risk of errors, and lay the foundation for high-performance networks—from XGS-PON to 25G-PON.
Managed Altiplano is more than just management software – it’s your fully managed orchestration platform for modern PON networks, delivered as an SDAN Domain Controller directly in your data centre. You receive a turnkey, ready-to-operate solution designed from the outset for stability, security, and scalability.
Together, we analyse your existing infrastructure and develop a tailored design for your PON orchestration.
We set up the platform, integrate it into your environment, and connect all relevant systems.
During ongoing operations, we ensure the smooth performance of your management infrastructure.
Our team continuously monitors your platform, detects issues at an early stage, and resolves them before they impact your operations.
We adapt configurations and workflows on demand to maximise the efficiency and performance of your network.
You receive transparent reports on status, utilisation, and opportunities for optimisation.
Together with you, we analyse your existing infrastructure and develop a customised design for your PON orchestration. This ensures your solution is scalable not only for today’s requirements but also for the future.
Use case: A regional network operator plans to expand FTTH coverage. We simulate migration scenarios and define service templates (such as Internet 1 Gbps, VoIP, IPTV) that can later be deployed automatically.
We seamlessly integrate Managed Altiplano into your existing environment, connecting OLTs and OSS/BSS systems as required and configuring your services. Initial pilot sites are launched without any disruption to your current customers.
Use case: Service templates are stored within the system, APIs to CRM and billing systems are activated, and the first connections are provisioned automatically.
We ensure your infrastructure runs reliably at all times. With centralised control via Altiplano, services can be adjusted quickly and easily—no complex manual processes required.
Use case: New customer connections are provisioned fully automatically within just a few minutes, with no manual intervention. Meanwhile, all existing services continue to operate smoothly and without interruption. This guarantees continuous network availability and supports seamless scaling as demand grows.
With Altiplano, you gain complete transparency over network status, utilisation, and service quality—centrally managed and in real time. This ensures the reliable operation of your infrastructure.
Use case: The Altiplano SDAN Controller instantly detects unusually high network loads and provides immediate visibility of potential bottlenecks. Integrated event handling ensures that an escalation team is immediately notified—regardless of whether it’s your own specialists or Xantaro. This allows you to respond promptly and effectively prevent downtime, guaranteeing maximum network stability and consistent service quality around the clock.
We support you in the ongoing evolution of your network. By analysing operational data, we identify bottlenecks and opportunities, enabling you to plan network upgrades efficiently and proactively.
Use case: Through precise analysis of real-time data, we quickly pinpoint areas with rising demand. This allows new OLTs to be planned in advance and seamlessly integrated into your system landscape thanks to automated processes, ensuring smooth expansion that avoids bottlenecks and sustainably enhances your network’s performance.
Transparency for management and investors: Altiplano generates detailed, fully customisable reports on network performance, service quality, and operational efficiency—automatically and on demand.
Use case: Our service reviews provide a comprehensive overview of your management platform’s availability, giving you maximum control over Altiplano and enabling you to drive development strategically and efficiently.
At the centre of our Xantaro Managed Altiplano services is a fully managed platform consisting of the Nokia Altiplano Access Controller, operated on a Kubernetes container infrastructure with dedicated compute, RAM and storage. A multi-redundant network and security architecture ensures high availability and reliable protection.
Modularly expandable - if required, we can seamlessly scale the platform with additional resources or functions. The service level agreement (SLA) defines clear operating times and response obligations, 8×5 as standard, optionally 24/7.
We deliver the Managed Altiplano platform as a fully functional, turnkey system solution directly to your data centre—on-premises and ready for operation. You retain complete control over your PON environment and fibre network, while benefitting from all the advantages of modern network architecture: flexibility, scalability, and redundancy. This gives you maximum autonomy with reduced operational effort.
Managed Altiplano provides fully managed orchestration as a platform for modern PON infrastructures - operated by Xantaro. But if you want to outsource not only the orchestration, but also the entire active network management, Managed NOC is the right extension: via our Network Operations Centre, we can also optionally take over the operational management of the PON network itself - including 24/7 monitoring, incident handling, performance monitoring and SLA-controlled support. This turns an orchestrated platform into a holistically managed network.
We deliver the Managed Altiplano platform as a fully operational and turnkey system solution directly to your data centre - on-premises and ready for operation. You retain full control over your PON environment and your fibre optic network at all times - with all the benefits of modern network architecture: flexibility, scalability and redundancy. This allows you to combine maximum sovereignty with operational relief.
The diagram illustrates the structure of the Managed Altiplano platform as a fully integrated, pre-installed system solution.
At the centre of a basic setup are three powerful servers that together form a highly available Kubernetes environment. This is specially tailored to the requirements of Altiplano and ensures maximum operational stability and scalability.
Two redundant switches connect the system components with each other and ensure uninterrupted data communication - even in the event of a fault. The platform is complemented by two dedicated firewalls that establish encrypted VPN tunnels for monitoring and operating data, creating a secure, remotely monitored environment.
In addition to software and operation, the solution also includes the necessary hardware, including backup mechanisms, which can be customised to your individual requirements. Everything is delivered directly to your data centre as a turnkey platform.
The basic setup can be expanded as required, but offers maximum resilience even in the basic configuration.
