Verizon field trail in 2009 showed no major technical issues with XG-PON Detailed field trail results were jointly reported by Verizon and Huawei in OFC2010 postdeadline paper Worlds First XG-PON Trial

Conclusions
FSAN / ITU-T has thought long and hard over the next PON
Coexistence with current deployment is key Cost effective bandwidth is the watch-word

XG-PON provides a good blend of characteristics

Compatibility with G-PON and GE-PON Higher bandwidth, with acceptable asymmetry High loss budget capabilities Low cost for equipment

Timeline
Comprehensive standards completed by June 2010 (this month!) First trial was in 2009 and showed no major technical issues Significant deployments in 2012
