Why PON
The access-layer network is a fundamental platform for terminating and carrying out
various services. With the rapid development of the broadband access services in
the recent years, the demand for bandwidth of the access layer is on the on-going
rise. As an ideal transmission medium, fibre provides high-speed, high-bandwidth,
and multi-service transfer capabilities. Fibre access becomes one of the key
technologies of the Next-Generation Network (NGN).
Multimedia Service Driven FTTx

Customers expect high bandwidth, simple and rich content service such as VoIP,
VOD, HDTV, SDTV, online gaming, shopping online, etc, Service driven the
access technology.

The existing ADSL2+ limited by distance, bandwidth that cannot meet the
customer further service expectations, so higher bandwidth, lower investment,
and easy maintenance technology PON (passive optical network) are the most
suitable for access.
Investment Cost Driven FTTx

As we known, fiber price decrease fast, which has reach up to 0.0125USD/m; but
Copper price increase by 30%~60% y/y. Copper cost is 2USD/pair/m.
Optic Modular also decreased sharply, in 2000 the price of 155Mbps optic modular
is 500USD, but now it is only 12.5USD.
EPON ASIC chip also decrease by 30%~40%. And GPON ASIC is becoming
mature and stable.
Document Title
FTTx network reduce the OpEX the most. FTTx is lower power consumption than
DSLAM, FTTx need smaller room than DSLAM. ODN network is passive, which will
largest reduce Operation, management and maintenance cost.
Advanced Features
Fiber access is one of the key technologies of Next Generation Network. FTTx has
advance Features as the following:
High bandwidth
Long distance, PON can reach up to 20KM
Fiber lifetime can last to more than 50 years
Anti- electromagnetism disturbance and lower fault
Easy management
Comparison EPON and GPON

In order to meet the high bandwidth demands including VoIP, IPTV, VOD, CATV
video services, L2VPN service, EPON and GPON emerged. For FTTx solution,
EPON and GPON dominated in the fiber access technology. EPON and GPON
work as Passive Optic network technology, there are some advantages such as
long distance, high bandwidth, lower power consumption, easy maintenance, antielectronic magnet, longer lifetime, etc. but when the carriers choose the PON
technology, they are often confused, so the next section, we give you some
comparison about EPON and GPON.

Commercial Application comparison
EPON dominated the FTTx market

Till now FTTx are prevailing in Japan, Korea, USA, China and West Europe.
Different countries choose different PON technology. China, Japan, korea, some
north Europe countries choose EPON; but USA and some of West Europe choose
GPON and VDSL2 as the FTTx technology. There are 10M EPON in Japan till 2007,
and Japan will expand to 17M in 2010. From 2007 China began to develop EPON
network largely. EPON accounted for 80% market share of FTTx.
Figure 1
Data from DITTBERNER
The above diagram shows the shipment of Q1 2008, EPON is the major FTTx
technology.
EPON Maturity is better than GPON

EPONs OLT and ONU are based on ASIC and EPON standard was completed for
a long time and EPON has been largest application in the world.
GPON OLT and ONU are based on FPGA, just little GPON ONU is based on ASIC;
there are few chipset vendor for GPON. The cost is still very high.
Supply Chain, EPON is better than GPON

Before 2007 there were 3 matured chipset vendors including PMCCortina
Teknovus. To 2007 has been increased to 5 vendors.
Till now, there is only Broadlight provide ASIC GPON chip for GPON ONU.
In 2007 there are 15 EPON vendors products passed China Telecom
interoperability test.
2.3
Cost comparison
The big difference of cost is MAC chip and Optic Modular. Because GPON is new
standard, there is not matured application and industry product chain. GPONs cost
still several times than that of EPON.
Basic cost
EPON based on Ethernet, the MAC layer of EPON simpler than GPON, the
cost of EPON is lower than GPON.
GPON performance index of fiber facility (Splitter, Optic modular) is higher than
EPON. GPON OLT is difficult interoperability between different vendors. GPON
ONU must adopt DFB, but EPON adopt FP, DFB is much higher than FP.
Speed of price down
EPON based on ASIC and there are larger applications in the world. ASIC
technology is more mature than FGPA, so EPON has big price space and easy
to be mass production and reduce the cost.
FGPA is a new technology, bad compatibility. GPON chip based on FGPA, it

will be a long way to suitable price.

FTTx Solution
3.1
FTTH
In this mode, ZXA10 C220/C200 is placed in the central office, or in the equipment
room of the residential area, ZXA10 C220/C200 connects with the subscribers in
each house, apartment or building via splitter. In the case of high building, splitter is
placed outside of the building, hung on the wall or in outdoor cabinet. For multi-layer
residential building, one splitter can be shared by several residential building.
Generally splitter is placed in the middle of the buildings to save fiber.
Fiber is inter-connected in the connecting cabinet, and then enters into the room of
subscribers via pig-tail; ONT can be placed on the desk or mount-hanging. ONT
provides multi-services access such as POTS, IPTV, HSIA, CATV through VoIP,
FE/GE, WLAN and RF interfaces, etc.
The characteristic of this mode is that each apartment/house has its own private
ONT, splitter is shared by several subscribers, and bandwidth of each subscriber is
relative to the number of ONT.
Figure 2
Solution for FTTH
Nowadays, there are many villas in each city, these users often need high
bandwidth and high QoS for service access, the features of GPON is just fit for
these customers requirements, fiber to the villa is a typical kind of FTTH application.
Broadband users in villa area are generally separated. OLT can be placed in the
equipment room of the area. To save optical cable resource, multi-level optical fiber
splitting is used. Hang the backbone cable on the cable pole overhead or lay them
underground with cell equipment room as the center. Install a level 1 optical fiber
6
splitter at an interval to cover the users nearby. For users far away from the
backbone cable, install a level 2 optical fiber splitter to cover users around this area.
Since level 2 optical fiber splitting box and the users are separated, a multiplexer
with small optical splitter is used.
Figure 3
Solution for Villa
Each villa has its own private ONT; splitter is generally placed outside of the villa
and shared by several subscribers.
3.2
FTTB
For commercial building, there are several self-governed enterprises or companies
in each building, the bandwidth of each enterprise or company generally is very high.
In this case, ZXA10 C220/C200 can be placed in the basement or equipment room
of the building, splitter is placed in the low voltage room of each floor. Multi level
splitting can be used in this case.
Each enterprise or company has its own ONU/ONT, ONU/ONT connects to the
splitter which shared by several ONU/ONTs, with Hub or LAN switch for interfaces
expansion. There are two ways: MTU for PON+LAN and MDU for PON+DSL used
in this mode.
PON+LAN mode
Document Title
Figure 4
FTTB with PON+LAN
Figure 5
FTTB with PON+DSL
PON+DSL mode
ZXDSL 9806H as a MDU supports up to 96 lines ADSL/ADSL2/SHDSL or 64 lines

VDSL2, with EPON/GPON uplink to OLT via splitter. ZXDSL 9806H can be placed
in the basement of the building or outdoor cabinet. The existing twisted-pair cooper
line in the building can be used to save the cost of networking, for higher building,
wiring box can be used in certain layer to make it easy for wire planning.
For high building, OLT can be placed in the access equipment room or central
equipment room. Level 1 optical fiber splitting is generally recommended: Use an
optical fiber splitter for several layers and install it in the low voltage equipment
room. Put the optical splitter in the optical fiber splitting box, which directly cover
users in serveral layers. If level-2 optical fiber splitter is used, it can only be used as
splicing wire distribution convergence point, not the optical fiber splitting point.
3.3
FTTO
For office application it is similar to that of FTTB, but the distance between
ONU/ONT and user is generally no more than 50 meters. Splitter can be placed in
the centre of the office or in the equipment room. In this case, SBU (Single
Business Unit) is used for few interfaces providing and MTU (Multi-Tenant Unit) are
used for more interfaces providing.
Figure 6
Solution for FTTO
SBU/MTU should support E1 that connect with PBX which connect provide voice
service for business user. MTU can not only directly provide FE that connects with
PC, but also MTD/SBU can connect with LAN switch that provides multi FE
connecting with PC. In this mode OLT located at center office. OLT connect with
various service network such as IP network, VOIP network and PSTN/TDM network.

FTTx Service provision
4.1
VoIP Service
VoIP service provides voice service for subscriber. ZXA10 C220/C200 supports the
voice service in VoIP access mode. VoIP service can be realized by NGN network
and VoIP is carried by ZXC220/C200 and ONU. ZXA10 C220/C200 meets the
requirement of network evolution by integrating the NGN network with SS
architecture.
Figure 7
VoIP Service
VoIP service flow in NGN network is as the followings:

1. ZXA10 C220/C200 connects to SS (Soft Switch) which controls the voice calling
through SIP or H.248.
2. ONT equipment on the user side generates VoIP calling.
3. ZXA10 C220/C200 implements the convergence of VoIP service.
VoIP service is sent upward to SS by the following two ways:
1) GE/10GE port
2) The same physical interface as other services. Different services are isolated
from one another logically.
For ONU there are two Modes, one is ONU with IAD function, the other is ONU
without IAD function.
ONU with IAD Mode

In this mode, ONU generates VoIP calling, ONU process the VOIP codec and
SIP/H.248 protocol. OLT C200/C220 just transparent transports VoIP data and
Signaling.
10
ONU without IAD Mode
In this mode, ONU provide interface (xDSL or FE) which connect with IAD terminal.
OLT and ONU work as the VOIP carried function. IAD generates calling and
process calling. OLT and ONT provide the data channel of VOIP, but not process
the VOIP calling.
4.2
IPTV Service
ZXA10 C220/C200 supports high bandwidth video traffic and IP functions. IPTV
service implements multicast to provide TV channels. It enables fast channel
switching and reduces bandwidth requirements by distributing services to each
subscriber.
IPTV video stream does not require a constant bit rate. IPTV service flow is as the
followings:
1)
Subscribers generate PPPoE service request from STB (Set Top Box),
which is connected to FE/GE UNI (User Network Interface) of ONT.
2)
ZXA10 C220/C200 checks the subscribers video program request and

controls duplication of video multicast service stream.
3)
IPTV service stream is transmitted to ONU via GE interface of ZXA10

C220/C200 according to the requested program.
4)
IPTV traffic flow can be set by the subscriber. It should be lower than VoIP
service and higher than Internet access traffic flow. EPON/GPON provides
very high bandwidth so there is no congestion.
There are two modes for traffic flow:
Mode 1 (IPTV traffic passing through BAS)

All services pass through the BAS (Broadband Access Server) in this mode. This
mode provides Internet and IPTV services. BAS performs authorization, service
control, user management and access control. IPTV service supporting platform is
also used for subscriber authorization.
One user account requires two times authorization for subscriber management and
control. The advantage of this mode is that the IP network performs the subscribers
management. The disadvantage is that both IPTV and Internet use the same line,
so the speed is low.
Other services pass through ZXA10 C220/C200 uplink port and connect to IP
network. All subscribers are authorized by PPPoE server.
11
Document Title
Figure 8
Mode 1 IPTV Service Flow
Mode 2 (IPTV traffic passby BAS)

The main features are as the followings:
1) Broadband service passes through BAS.
2) VoD service does not pass through BAS even it uses the same port with the
broadband service.
3) Live TV service does not pass through BAS
This mode uses one independent uplink port for live TV and another uplink port for
Internet and VoD services. Both services are separated by VLAN and each has
different Class of Service (CoS) priority.
In this mode, the broadband subscriber uses PPPoE to be authorized and IPTV
subscriber uses fixed or dynamic IP address. For dynamic IP address PPPoE
authorization is used. ZXA10 C220/C200 supports transparent transmission.

Mode 2 Service Flow
4.3
CATV Service
CATV service provides cable TV channels. The subscriber can access to cable TV
system through RF UNI of ONU. To access the CATV service, ONU with CATV
interface is required.
CATV service flow is as the followings:
1.
ONU provides the RF UNI for subscribers and ONT performs de-multiplexing.
2.
ZXA10 C220/C200 is configured connecting with multiplexer and Erbium

Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA, Video combiner). The multiplexer combines
three wavelength signals on one single fiber. These signal wavelengths are:
1)
1550 nm downstream CATV optical signal
2)
1490 nm downstream optical signal
3)
1310 nm upstream optical signal
3.
The signals are sent through the fiber in wave division form.
4.
ONU receives the 1550 nm CATV signal and sends it to the cable TV system
after wave division.
Figure 10 CATV Service
4.4
Broadband Services
ZXA10 C220/C200 provides various broadband services. These services include
Internet surfing, downloading, online game, online learning, video conferencing,
remote education/medical treatment, etc.
The ONU/ONT supports data service access via LAN (FE/GE) or WLAN (WiFi)
interface. Subscriber is connected to ONU/ONT. ONU/ONT is connected to ZXA10
C220/C200 (OLT) which implements convergence and uplink to the broadband
WAN via GE interface. BAS performs subscribers authorization, service control,
user management and access control.

Document Title
Figure 11 Broadband Service
4.5
Broadband VPN Service

VPN (Virtual private network) is an important network application. It can reduce the
end users own and usage cost, and promotes the network security. ZXA10 PON
can support broadband VPN.
Figure 12 VPN services.
The ONU/ONT supports VPN broadband service access via LAN (FE/GE) or WLAN
(WiFi) interface. Subscriber is connected to ONU/ONT. ONU/ONT is connected to
ZXA10 C220/C200 (OLT) which implements convergence and uplink to the
broadband WAN via GE interface. BAS performs subscribers authorization, service
control, user management and access control.
BRAS support VPN function. ZXA10 C220/C200 (OLT) connects the end user by
VLAN/PPP to transmit the data to the BRAS which use the L2TP to establish the
tunnel for secure connection to use internal network resources.
4.6
TDM Service
ZXA10 C220/C200 provides TDM service to the subscribers. It is suitable for
subscribers who use TDM network instead of IP networks (such as SS and IMS).
TDM service is provided in network with SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy),
SONET and TDM systems. TDM service is supported in CES mode.
If there is PBX in the network, PBX uplinks to SBU/MTU, EPON/GPON OLT
transmits the E1 signal from SBU/MTU to PSTN/TDM network. ZXA10 C220/C200
supports 128E1 to connect with PSTN/TDM. SBU ZXA10 F621/F429 supports 4
E1 interfaces to connect with PBX,MTU ZXA10 F820 supports 16E1 interfaces to
connect with PBX. PBX is suitable for many commercial applications such as
enterprises, factories, office parks, commercial streets and buildings for E1
requirements.

Qos Processing Procedure

ZTE OLT and ONU adopt the same QoS processing procedure as the following
diagram.
Figure 14 ONU and OLT QoS processing procedure
The package from ONU or OLT will be process as the following procedure.
1)
Input package was classified by MAC, IP, VLAN, Ethernet type, UDP/TCP.
2)
Traffic processing modular will detect the speed of stream, when the
speed exceeds the threshold, it will be rejected.
3)
COS process: Sometime the data from UNI/SNI with COS is not reliability,
COS process modular will check and transfer to reliability COS. According
to Port, VLAN ID, LLID, etc, it will generate a new COS. COS processing
will copy the internal (C-Tag ) CoS to external (S-TAG) CoS.
4)
COS and queue mapping: in order to guarantee service QoS, According to

COS value, the data will be mapping different priority queue, then be
scheduled through SP, WRR or SP+WRR.
5)
There is a queue scheduler in ONU and OLT, which is responsible for

data scheduling.

Shaping: make the traffic smoothly output.
GPON QoS
Beside the Ethernet QoS as above, ZTE GPON QoS specifications with GPON are as
the followings:
On OLT side
1) DBA is performed, which uses the bandwidth map to grant T-CONTs time slot
and guarantees the high priority T-CONT.
2) Traffic profile is given according to different service with different QoS
guarantee.
On ONT side
1) Multi T-CONTs are supported in ONT (up to 8 T-CONTs)
2) Five types of T-CONT are supported: 1-Fixed, 2-Assured, 3-Non-assured, 4best effort, 5-all
3) Mapping of T-CONT is based on UNI, 802.1p and VLAN
4) Support DBRu mode 0 based on ITU-T G.984.3
For the GPON, There are two types of total QoS in GPON application mode, which
are:
GPON Uplink QoS

Subscriber traffic is queued and enters the T-CONT for mapping. There are multiple
conditions of T-CONT which are as followings:
1) One user uses one T-CONT or all the subscribers use one T-CONT. T-CONT
uses strict priority (SP) and weight round robin (WRR) polices for mapping and
scheduling the user traffic. Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) is assigned
at OLT side.
2) One type of service uses one T-CONT and one subscriber can use several TCONTs. DBA manages one user bandwidth or one type of service bandwidth
at a time.
3) PIR (Peak Information Rate) and SIR (Sustained Information Rate) can be
configured for one user. PIR and SIR can also be configured for one type of
service. If the data exceeds these WRED it is discarded in ONT/ONU.

GPON Downlink QoS

Server side traffic is classified based on port id. Configurations rules are managed
by software. The downlink flow is as the followings:
1) Subscriber data is mapped to user traffic units. User traffic unit controls and
manage several subscribers by using SLA (Service Level Authentication). Its
functions are as follows:
Controls PIR/SIR of every services of every user. The data exceeded is

discarded
Shaping every service traffic of every user
Shaping the whole service traffic of every user
Scheduling service traffic of every user using SP and WRR.
Controls the users maximum, assured and fixed bandwidth.
Special low delay queues and user traffic unit are schedules using SP and
WRR
Support 512 user traffic unit per PON interfaces
Different service traffic is mapped to different queues in UNI
SP and WRR set the priorities of the queues in UNI interface and shape the
data through every UNI interface using PIR /SIR.

Optical Distribution Network ODN

PON network consist of OLT, ONU and ODN. ODN is the Optical fiber distribution
network that consists of ODF, Fiber distribution Cabinet/Box, splitter, cool splice and
other auxiliary fiber facilities.
6.1
OLT, ONU and Splitter Deployment
6.1.1
OLT Deployment
OLTs can be deployed in equipment rooms in offices or residential community
access equipment rooms
If OLTs are deployed in equipment rooms in offices, equipment maintenance is
much convenient, but because a large number of optical fibers are deployed from
the office to residential communities where fibers are distributed, the costs of fibers
are rather high and there is a lot of construction work.
If OLTs are deployed in residential community access equipment rooms where a
multitude of user optical interfaces are provided, they are nearer to users. Because
a large number of optical fibers from the office to residential communities are not
necessary, fiber and construction costs are saved.
6.1.2
ONU Deployment
Deployment of ONUs is divided into FTTH, FTTC, FTTB, FTTO, FTTCab, etc.
If terminals on ONU side are deployed outdoors, installation positions, damage
prevention, power supply, and other problems need to be taken into consideration;
on the other hand, the construction and maintenance work is huge.
If terminals on ONU side are deployed indoors, installation and maintenance are
very simple, and various services can be offered to users conveniently. Thus it is
the trend of development in future.
6.1.3
Optical Splitter Deployment

Theoretically, the nearer splitters to users, the more fiber resources are saved.
However, during network design, costs of supporting facilities should be considered
at the same time, that is, it is not worth attaching full importance to save fiber
resources while neglecting costs of supporting facilities.
Therefore, when users are relatively centralized, it is most suitable for splitters to be
in weak electric-pump wells of the floors near users; when user density is not high,
splitters can be placed in weak electric-pump wells on the first floors or equipment
rooms, and a secondary optical splitter solution can be used in which splitters are
flexibly configured with various coupling ratios to provide optical fiber access
22
services for nearby floors. If users are relatively decentralized, such as in a villa
neighborhood, splitters can be deployed in outdoor cabinets as well.
Figure 19 Splitter deployment scenarios
As the above diagram, there are 4 situations for the splitter deployment, which are
splitter in Center office, Splitter installing in residential equipment room, splitter
installing building corridor, splitter installing greened region between building and
residential equipment room.
splitter in Center office

Splitter is installed in center office, which easy management, but that will need
many fiber resources and engineering is also complex. We did not recommend this
mode unless you should cover larger region and the density of population is not
high.
Splitter installing in residential equipment room

In this mode, Splitter placed in the equipment room, the cost of centralized wiring is
low. Splitter is installed centralized, which cover many subscribers; also improve the
utilization of PON.
splitter installing building corridor

Splitter placed on the corridor, can save fiber at the most, but cover range is smaller
and PON utilization is lower if the population density is not high.
splitter installing greened region

Splitter placed in the outdoor cabinet, Splitter centralized deployment and the cost
of fiber is low, and covers many subscribers; also improve the utilization of PON.

FTTH ODN Solution

ODN is the optical fiber distribution between OLT and ONU. For the FTTH solution,
medial transport is pure fiber between OLT and ONU. OLT installed in center office
and ONU deployed in subscriber home. The following topology structure of an
FTTH system mainly refers to that of ODN. ODN is passive, that is, there did not
need power supply.
Figure 20 FTTH ODN solution
From this diagram, ODN consists of five Optical fiber subsystem. They are jumper
fiber subsystem system, Trunk Fiber subsystem, distribution Fiber system and
Outdoor Fiber subsystem and indoor fiber subsystem.
Jumper fiber subsystem

This subsystem is from OLT to ODF in the center office. The major components are
OLT, ODF.
Trunk Fiber subsystem

This segment is the trunk optical fiber parts from the center office ODF to Fiber
distribution Cabinet. Trunk fiber normally is armored fiber. Trunk fiber subsystem
includes ODF, Fiber distribution box and cross-connection box. Sometime splitter
can be installed into fiber distribution cabinet.
Distribution Fiber subsystem

Distribution fiber subsystem is segment from Trunk fiber to Fiber distribution box of
district or building. Splitter often installed in the distribution box of district and
building.
Outdoor Drop fiber subsystem

This subsystem distributed fiber from district distribution box to home. The fiber is
ribbon fiber.
Indoor Drop fiber subsystem

This part is the indoor fiber planning from the Fiber socket to the ONT/ONU.

6.3
FTTB ODN Solution

FTTB ODN divided into two parts including Trunk fiber part and user fiber part.
FTTB solution consists of OLT, ODF, Splitter, MTU (with PON and LAN)/MDU (with
PON and DSL), and other Optical auxiliary components. The detail topology of
FTTB is shown as the following diagram.
MTU
OLT
MDU
Figure 21 FTTB ODN solution
The trunk fiber is armored fiber. Fiber Wiring box and splitter are install in the same
cabinet which located in residential equipment room or outdoor cabinet near to a
building. For FTTB, it often adopts one level splitter centralized. MTU/MDU is
installed in weak electric well of building.
6.4
Typical application
6.4.1
Commercial Zone
Users in commercial area are more concentrated. It is recommended that OLT be placed
in the access equipment room. A fiber splitter is installed in each layer or 2~3 adjacent
layers. An optical splitter is installed in the fiber splitting box (It is general 1: 32) for
Level 1 Optical Splitter. If users in one layer are more than 32, a separate level 1
splitter may be installed. If users in one layer are less than 32, multiple layers can share
one level 1 fiber splitting box.
Backbone optical fiber is laid in the fiber splitter via weak electric well by OLT. Its
minimum fiber core capacity is determined by the total number of final users in the
building and optical splitting ratio of optical splitter. Optical fiber splitter is directly
connected to the user via user optical fiber, or for the convenience, to level 2 fiber
splitting box, then to the user. At this time, level 2 fiber splitter is only used as splicing
wire distribution convergence point, not optical splitting point.

Villa Area
Broadband users in villa area are generally separated. OLT can be placed in the
machine room of the cell. To save optical cable resource, multi-level optical fiber splitting
is used. Hang the backbone cable on the cable pole overhead or lay them
underground with cell machine room as the center. Install a level 1 optical fiber splitter at
an interval to cover the users nearby. For users far away from the backbone cable,
install a level 2 optical fiber splitter to cover users around this area. Since level 2 optical
fiber splitting box and the users are separated, a demultiplexer with small optical splitter
is used.

Figure 23
6.4.3
ODN Plan in a Villa
Multi-layer Building
If a multi-layer building doesnt have many users, OLT can be placed in the cell
machine room or the central equipment room. An optical fiber splitter is generally
used in a corridor or several corridors share an optical fiber splitting box. An optical
splitter is used in the fiber splitting box. When there are many users in the corridor,
just adopt Level 1 Optical Fiber Splitting Box . When there are much more users in
the corridor, adopt Level 2 Optical Fiber Splitting Box mode. User the optical fiber
splitter in a corridor as the level 1 optical fiber splitting box, leading out optical fiber
to the corridor nearby. Then, install a level 2 optical fiber splitting box, thus ensuring
effective use of optical fiber resource.

Document Title
Figure 24 Multi-layer ODN Plan
6.4.4
High Building
For high building, OLT can be placed in the access equipment room or cell
equipment room. Level 1 Optical Fiber Splitting plan is generally recommended:
Use an optical fiber splitter for several layers and install it in the weak electric well.
Put the optical splitter in the optical fiber splitting box, which directly cover users in
many layers. If level 2 optical fiber splitter is used, it can only be used as splicing
wire distribution convergence point, not optical fiber splitting point.
If user density is very low, to save the backbone optical fiber resource, level 2
optical fiber splitting mode can be considered. Advantage of the level 2 optical fiber
splitter is that it can fully save optical fiber resource. The loss will be more, and the
maintenance work will increase.
