Using optical splitters to build a local area network for transmission

Home / Using optical splitters to build a local area network for transmission

A passive optical LAN, called POL or POLAN, is short for Passive Optical Local Area Network. It utilizes optical splitters to distribute data from one single source to multiple user endpoints. This paper presents the design and implementation of a passive optical network (PON) based on a gigabit-capable passive optical network (GPON) standard to deliver fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) services in a small-town setting. In the backbone of modern Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks, optical splitters serve as the unsung heroes that enable cost-efficient connectivity for millions of subscribers.

How to Design Layers and Splitting Ratios for FTTH Network?-BLOG

For FTTH networks and other PON networks, a star-shaped configuration using splitter ratio architecture is the most common. There are advantages and disadvantages to using a local aggregation point
