Title:
Composition for arranging GPON and the XGPON optical fiber communications system which live together
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5941150
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A passive, coexisting 10 Gb/s passive optical network (XGPON) and Gb/s passive optical network (GPON) is created by using a pair of counter-propagating laser pump sources at a network-based optical line terminal, in combination with a feeder fiber, to create distributed Raman amplification for the upstream signals associated with both GPON and XGPON systems. A passive remote node is located at the opposite end of the feeder fiber, in the vicinity of a group of end-user locations, and includes a cyclic WDM and a pair of power splitters for the GPON and XGPON signals such that the GPON signals are thereafter directed through a first power splitter into optical network units (ONUs) specifically configured for GPON wavelengths and XGPON signals are directed through a second power splitter into ONUs configured for the XGPON wavelengths. The arrangement of the remote node allows for the reach and split ratios of the GPON and XGPON systems to be individually designed for optimum performance.
