SEBA Blueprint is a member of the Telco Appliance blueprint family and provides an appliance tuned to support the ONFSDN-enabled Broadband Access (SEBA) platform.  The SEBA blueprint will utilize utilizes a reusable set of modules introduced by the first example of the Telco Appliance blueprint family, Radio Edge Cloud (REC)The first use case of the SEBA blueprint is for virtual broadband access using XGS-PON.  XGS-PON is a 10-Gbps symmetric passive optical network, standardized in the G.987.x series of ITU-T Recommendations.

Note: For Akraino Release 2, the TA ISO and REC ISO are identical, so the SEBA application is installed directly on REC; as such, the only difference between the SEBA Component list and the REC Component list is the addition of VOLTHA, ONOS, and NEM upstream components.  Further information on VOLTHA, ONOS, and NEM can be found at the following links:
