Embodiment Method of FTTH

Here, we just simply introduce four embodiment method of FTTH, including Home Run method, APON Method, TDM-PON and WDM-PON.

 

Embodiment Method of FTTH

Embodiment Method of FTTH

 

1)Home Run (Point to Point) Method

 
Home Run Method, one piece of optical fiber being connected from the CO(Central Office) to the subscriber by point to point, can be deemed the simplest method.

2)AON Method

AON Method is the one to post a Remote Note (RN) that accepted a active component to carry out Ethernet switching function on a proper position within subscribers area, let us say, Cabinet, Shelter, Controlled Environment Vault (CEV) or Electric Pole, from which connect to the each subscriber through optical fiber. At this time the connecting section from the CO to the RN is connected through a single optical fiber.

3) TDM-PON Method

TDM-PON Method can be divided by ATM-PON, Ethernet-PON, G-PON etc, and is the method to select and receive a signal only transmitted to him/her from the ONT (Optical Network Terminal), once the CO(Central Office) broadcast a signal to all subscribers, meanwhile the signal to be sent from the subscriber to the CO is to use respective protocol then time-division multiplexing access.

4) WDM-PON

WDM-PON (Wavelength Division Multiplexing-Passive Optical Network) is an innovative concept for access and backhaul networks. It uses multiple different wavelengths (WDM) over a physical point-to-multipoint fiber infrastructure that contains no active components (PON). The use of different wavelengths allows for traffic separation within the same physical fiber. The result is a network that provides logical point-to-point connections over a physical point-to-multipoint network topology. WDM-PON allows operators to deliver high bandwidth to multiple endpoints over long distances.

 

Features of FTTH by Composition Method

Section

Primary Features

Advantage $Disadvantage

Home Run

Install optical fiber individually up to the residence by PTP (point to point).

Exhaustion rate of optical backbone line and wiring network are high Bandwidth guaranteed and favorable security owing to optical cable supply by each subscriber.

Advantageous maintenance since there is no place to install outdoor

Advantage: Maintenance/bandwidth guaranteed/favorable security

Disadvantage: Network setting expense increase as optical cable consumption rate is a lotInvestment increase against optical power splitter connection box object, optical cable, conduit etc.

AON

Power supply: Power supply to Ethernet switch is needed

Supply bandwidth: 100Mbps when 1Gbps shares with 10 subscribers
Operational maintenance: Since active equipment is installed outside, management against this equipment is required

Advantage: Relatively cheap equipment price by use of Ethernet switch already supplied in bulk
Disadvantage: Cost increase of power supply and maintenance due to outdoor installation of the switch. Difficult reception of broadcasting service like CATV

TDM-PON

Technology method: ATM-PON/G-PON/E-PON

Power supply: Power supply is no need because of passive component application
Supply bandwidth: 100Mbps when 1Gbps shares with 10 subscribers.

Operational maintenance: Relatively favorable maintenance since active component is not existing

Advantage: Because of passive component application, power supply is no need then subsequently favorable operational maintenance. TDM (voice) support is possible from E-PON MAC etc.

Disadvantage: Cryptographic technology considering a security is required since fiber is sharedSeparate function for RF broadcasting service is required.

Installation cost increase if there are few subscribers.

WDM-PON

Power supply: Power supply is not necessary owing to passive component application.

Supply bandwidth: Separate wavelength application per subscriber.

Operational maintenance: Relatively favorable maintenance since active component is not existing

Advantage: Communication security guaranteed between the subscribers by PTP communication. Easy expansion of communication capacity is possible to accept.

Disadvantage: Number of subscribers is determined depending on the figure of the splitter wavelength. Difficulty in both 1st stage, 2nd stage splitter reception according to subscribers’ distribution range and broadcasting service reception like RF video.
