GPON (Gigabit-capable Passive Optical Networks) Three advantages: 1. Longer transmission distance: Transmission over optical fibers reaches the maximum of 20 km transmission distance. 2. Higher bandwidth: downstream 2.5 Gbit/s and upstream 1.25 Gbit/s (the PMD layer) for each subscriber 3. Optical split feature: The single optical fiber from the CO is split to multiple drop optical fibers to save the resources.

GPON Technology----Data Multiplexing

The GPON system uses bto implement the bi-directional transmission over a single

fiber (a forced transmission mode).

1490 nm

1310 nm

Over a single optical fiber, to separate the Tx and Rx signals of multiple subscribers,

the GPON system uses the following two multiplexing technologies:

The downstream data streams use the broadcast technology. The upstream data streams use the TDMA technology.

HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.

HUAWEI Confidential

Page 10

GPON Technology----Downstream Data

Broadcast mode: The length of any downstream GPON frame is fixed to 125 us and the frames are broad cast to all the ONUs. In this way, all the ONUs can receive the same data. The ONUs differentiate the frames by Gemport ID and filters the frames to receive its own data.
AESAdvanced Encryption Standard

HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.

Page 11

GPON Technology----Upstream Data

TDMA mode: The upstream GPON data is transmitted in the TDMA mode. The uplink is
divided into different time slots, which are allocated to each ONU according to the upstream bandwidth map field in the downstream frames. Hence, all ONUs can transmit their own data based on a specific sequence and no conflict for competing timeslots occurs.

MA5600T Product Introduction

The MA5600T is an integrated optical-copper access platform that

provides flexible user access modes and effectively ensures the smooth evolution from copper access to optical access.
The MA5600T is able to provide multiple services over legacy copper

lines using xDSL access technologies such as ADSL2+, VDSL2, and SHDSL.
As an OLT in the xPON system, the MA5600T works with various ONUs.

It supports xPON access and P2P optical access, meeting requirements for various FTTx access applications such as fiber to the home (FTTH), fiber to the building (FTTB), fiber to the curb (FTTC), and base station access.
