Passive Optical LAN Optical Line Terminals (OLT) and ONTs can
also support analog voice, or what is commonly called Plain Old
Telephone Service (POTS). In this scenario, the ONT itself contains
a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) to the analog converter that allows
the POTS phone to plug into a RJ-11 port on the ONT [Figure 3].
As the ONT converts the POTS call to SIP, it is transported over the
Passive Optical LAN system in a VoIP format, which is handled in
one of two ways. The first option is to convert the call back to analog
with a voice gateway (VGW) that provides legacy PBX integration or
tip/ring lines from the carrier. The second approach ties the POTS
phone as a SIP call directly to a VoIP extension on the customers
IP-PBX or softswitch, eliminating the need for VoIP phones to be
purchased. Both options provide full integration with the features of
the legacy TDM PBX, POTS lines or the VoIP softswitch, and deliver
call waiting, message waiting indicator lights, voicemail and all other
features to the user via the analog POTS handset.
The ONTs do support IEEE standards for IEEE 802.3af PoE (15.4
watts at an Ethernet port) and IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (25.6 watts at an
Ethernet port) to power the VoIP handsets.

5 HOW ENTERPRISES ARE SOLVING EVOLVING NETWORK CHALLENGES WITH PASSIVE OPTICAL LAN
Summary
Enterprises looking to upgrade or replace their network infrastructure
are realizing the value of Passive Optical LAN. Passive Optical LAN
provides significant benefits without forcing enterprises to alter what
they are already doing or changing out the core and user devices.
Businesses are saving up to 30%50% of capital costs, 50%70%
of ongoing operational costs, 30%65% on energy and 90% of
the space while exceeding green goals and gaining assistance in
acquiring LEED facility certification.
Deploying a Passive Optical LAN helps an enterprise future-proof
their network infrastructure while realizing all of the benefits of
converged network services. The Passive Optical LAN provides
solutions that furnish high bandwidth while increasing the security
and reliability of existing networks.
