Precision OT’s PON Extender Technology is a patent-pending, low noise approach to WDM amplification that enables truly passive and extended reach PON links for distances up to 80km (for a 1x32 split). This PoC demonstrates how this technology sits next to an OLT in the hub/central office, travels through 65km of fiber, a 1x64 splitter, and interoperates with multiple different ONTs. The PoC demonstrates error free transmission of the full XGS-PON data throughput across an extended reach PON network utilizing all standard(non-specialized) XGS-PON equipment just by using the PON Extender Technology.
Key Highlights
1. Precision OT’s PON Extender Technology for XGS-PON is an optical module that allows truly passive and extended reach PON links for distances up to 80km.
2. Enables network operators to simplify and extend their PON footprint and eliminate the need to deploy remote OLTs in the field and/or enable out-of-footprint expansion for already fielded remote OLTs.
3. This solution directly mitigates the costs and risks associated with remote OLT deployments, which further supports the passive nature of PON while considerably enhancing its economics and service delivery.
