EPON Technical Advantages

With EPON technology matures, the industry mainstream operators have started large-scale deployment of EPON system, expand FTTx applications, and on this basis to achieve Triple Play (triple play, to deliver voice, data and video services), build triple play access platform.

Since 2004, the most developed in FTTH in Japan, Korea, Taiwan and the United States, Europe and other countries and regions, EPON technology has been large-scale applications, and further stimulate the IPTV business prosperity. In the Chinese market, the current EPON products have been held in all provinces of the pilot and commercial.

EPON technology uses wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology in a single fiber to achieve symmetrical 1Gbps bandwidth and client segments and can be implemented in close spectroscopic down, save a lot of backbone fiber resources. Currently the maximum achievable split ratio is 1:64. EPON system is another advantage lie in its strong coverage in the 1:32 split ratio furthest covering up 20km, at 1:64 next, as far as coverage bandwidth of each ONU user up to 30M or more, so that the video business has been enough bandwidth guarantees.

EPON in Wireless Communication

The use of passive optical splitter saves a lot of maintenance resources, as well as saving room, power matching and other resources, reducing the overall cost of FTTx network construction and maintenance costs. In recent years, the cost of fiber optic drop cable for the FTTx provides supporting cost reduction.

At present the operators to provide broadband access services are mainly two kinds of ADSL and LAN access, in addition, with the increasing demand for bandwidth, VDSL is becoming an option. Other access methods, such as Cable Modem, power line access, etc. As the market share of small and are subject to industry resource constraints.
