What is GPON ??

Gigabit Passive Optical Network

GPON is the dominant technology for delivering last
mile access over fiber.

ITU-T G.984.x specifies the GPON protocol.

FSAN (Full Service Access Network) Organization
developed GPON standard and extensions, as well as
manages interoperability.

FSAN is run by carriers: Verizon, BT, France Telecom,
NTT, BSNL, AT&T and includes vendor members
(e.g. Alphion)

GPON - Advantages

High Bandwidth:
 Gigabit Ethernet transport
 2.5 Gbit/s downstream
 1.25 Gbit/s upstream
 Simplified Services Bundling
 Bandwidth shared by up to 128 customers per GPON port

High Quality of Service (QoS)

 Carrier class QoS
 Synchronous system
 Advanced OAM&P

Next Generation:
 All-IP system
 Passive Optical Network (PON)
 No active elements in the field No powering, No truck rolls,
 Outside Plant (OSP) lifetime > 50 years.
 Lower Operating Expenses (OpEx)
