  2. Network interface device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_interface_device

    An optical network terminal (ONT, an ITU-T term), also known as an optical network unit (ONU, an IEEE term), is used to terminate the optical fiber line, demultiplex the signal into its component parts (voice telephone, television, and Internet access), and provide power to customer telephones.

  3. Passive optical network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_optical_network

    For TDM-PON, a passive optical splitter is used in the optical distribution network. In the upstream direction, each ONU (optical network units) or ONT (optical network terminal) burst transmits for an assigned time-slot (multiplexed in the time domain). In this way, the OLT is receiving signals from only one ONU or ONT at any point in time.

  4. 10G-PON - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10G-PON

    The optical network unit (ONU) supplies network services from the PON to customer premises, connecting customer-premises equipment such as a home gateway or office firewall. An optical network terminal (ONT) is an ONU that functions as a demarcation point servicing a single subscriber; e.g., a

  5. Optical line termination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_line_termination

    An Alcatel-Lucent OLT used by the French operator CityPlay OLT and ONU in fiber optic network. An optical line termination (OLT), also called an optical line terminal, is a device which serves as the service provider endpoint of a passive optical network. It provides two main functions:

  6. Fiber to the x - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_to_the_x

    The optical network terminal (ONT, an ITU-T term) or unit (ONU, an identical IEEE term) converts the optical signal into an electrical signal using thin film filter technology. These units require electrical power for their operation, so some providers connect them to backup batteries in case of power outages to ensure emergency access to ...

  7. GPON - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPON

    The bandwidth of the single connection between the OLT (optical line termination) and the ONTs (optical network terminals) is 2.4 Gbit/s down, 1.2 Gbit/s up, or rarely symmetric 2.4 Gbit/s, [1] shared between up to 128 ONTs using a time-division multiple access (TDMA) protocol, which the standard defines. [4]

  8. 10G-EPON - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10G-EPON

    The 10 Gbit/s Ethernet Passive Optical Network standard, better known as 10G-EPON allows computer network connections over telecommunication provider infrastructure. The standard supports two configurations: symmetric, operating at 10 Gbit/s data rate in both directions, and asymmetric, operating at 10 Gbit/s in the downstream (provider to customer) direction and 1 Gbit/s in the upstream ...

  9. Optical transport network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_transport_network

    OTN multiplexing and mapping structures. Show the relationship between ODU Clients, ODU, ODU-Groups and OTU. OTN was designed to provide higher throughput (currently 400G) than its predecessor SONET/SDH, which stops at 40 Gbit/s, per channel.
