Where is the convergence point for a passive optical network
Most PONs comprise a central switch point that houses the optical line terminal, a local convergence point where the splitters are located, and network interface devices, often called optical-network units or terminals. 3 describes the transmission convergence layer for gigabit-capable passive optical networks – a family of flexible access networks capable of providing a range of broadband and narrow-band services, operating at the rates of 2. 48832 Gbit/s downstream, and 1. 24416 or. Recommendation ITU-T G. In this use, a PON. Passive Optical Network (PON) stands as a foundational technology in the evolution of modern telecommunications, serving as the cornerstone for high-speed fiber-optic networks. In essence, a PON is a fiber-optic system that delivers data from a single source to multiple endpoints using only. GPON replaces the traditional three-tier Ethernet design with a two-tier optic network which eliminates access and distribution Ethernet switches with passive optical devices. Cisco introduces GPON with the Catalyst GPON platform. It operates on a point-to-multipoint (P2MP) architecture, enabling a single optical fiber to.
