Split Ratio of Passive Optical Network Depends on its Usage

Passive optical network (PON) is a fiber to the premises (FTTP) network structure. The goal of the network is to provide a solution which is easy to install, maintain and upgrade. This is done by using optical splitters in PON which enables a single fiber to deliver services to multiple premises. PON comprises an optical line terminal at the site of the service provider and numerous optical network units near end users. It is considered an eco-friendly alternative vis-à-vis conventional network, due to usage of unpowered optical splitters.The split ratio of passive optical network depends on its usage in terms of its structure such as Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) and Gigabit passive optical network (GPON).

GPON devices provide high-speed video, data and voice services to residential and business subscribers. Reliability and long-reach connectivity further strengthens the extremely high bandwidth of GPON technology. It also reduces the number of active switching devices implemented in a computer network. Moreover, GPON has been a major advancement for defense services, primarily due to advanced security and high bandwidth provided by the network.

EPON assists service providers to deliver voice and IPTV services, broadband and enterprise services, such as voice and internet connectivity and time division multiplexing (TDM). In addition, 4G and 3G mobile backhaul carriage services are also provided by EPON. With advancement in technology, new EPON equipment having full compatibility with the existing Ethernet standards are being developed continuously. As Ethernet is the major networking solution used in local area networks (LANs) and metro-area networks (MANs), protocol conversions are not required.

ONT as well as OLT are used in both GPON and EPON. OLT is placed at the service provider's central site, while the ONT at the premises of end users. The OLT operates as the Local Area Network (LAN) - combination element for assimilating video, voice and data services into a particular fiber structure. The ONT provides different local service interfaces to the user, such as video, telemetry, voice and data. GPON offers secure, high bandwidth and scalable networks for military, business and campus applications by leveraging influence of fiber optics and internet protocol/Ethernet architecture.

Passive optical network equipment market was valued at US$24.81 bn in 2014, at a CAGR of 20.7% from 2015 to 2023 to account for US$163.5 bn in 2023. The major driving factors of the global passive optical network equipment market are low cost of ownership and the high return on investments. In addition, higher bandwidth, unmatched security and greater reliability are set to bolster the growth of PON globally. Moreover, increasing digitization, coupled with mass adoption of smart and connected digital devices by businesses, governments and consumers is set to boost the growth of this market. Increasing advancements in networking technologies coupled with growing awareness regarding eco-friendly solutions in Asia Pacific is expected to create significant opportunity for the growth of PON equipment market in the future. However, high initial investments and high component cost at operator’s interface is set to restrain the growth of the market.

GPON Structural Networks Advantageous over Ethernet PONs

 In 2014, GPON accounted for the larger contribution to the global PON market. The segment held more than 65% of the overall market due to its high deployment in government enterprises and corporate projects. GPON also provides higher bandwidth, advanced security, and larger downstream speed than EPON, which are collectively contributing to the increasing adoption rate of GPON equipment.
