What is Passive Optical LAN?
If you want to build a LAN, you’d have the following components: Core Switch, Distribution/Aggregation Switch, Edge/End-point Switch, Copper UTP Cables. Fiber Optic cables may also be used for interconnection of switches (backbone).
Passive Optical LAN proposes to change this fundamental LAN architecture by replacing copper UTP cables with single-mode optical fiber cables. Basically it’s an ALL Fiber network with small copper UTP patch-cords connecting only to computers/end-points, at the very end of the chain.

Architecture: Enterprise Access Switch (instead of Core Switch) -> Passive Optical Splitters (instead of aggregation, distribution switches) -> WGT (Work Group Terminal with Ethernet ports, instead of edge switches)
All the above components are inter-connected using optical fiber cables.
Each Enterprise access switch supports up to 32/64 Passive Optical Splitters and each WGT supports up to 4 Ethernet ports (This configuration may differ based on the vendor).
When you think of LAN (Local Area Network), you generally think of Cat 5/6 cables and network switches, don’t you? But certain development in the carrier networking technologies has made optical fiber networking feasible, and maybe even beneficial, for the Enterprise LAN. Will all our copper cables be replaced by fiber cables sometime in the future? Not totally impossible.
