Gigabit Passive Optical Networks (GPON)

Gigabit Passive Optical Networks (GPONs) are fiber-based, short-haul networks that deliver increased speed and consistency especially for data-intensive activities like video and VoIP. GPON networks use passive components like optical splitters to power connectivity, lowering network costs and energy consumption while delivering higher data rates.

Although GPON networks have shorter physical ranges than their conventional counterparts, there are some important advantages:

• Less Cumbersome Physical Equipment: GPON networks don’t require physical switches to be used and, since one fiber can carry and split multiple signals, you also need less fiber optic cable.
• Simpler Maintenance and Management: Having less equipment means that maintenance is easier to keep track of and undertake, and GPON networks can be centrally managed with minimal hassle.
• Better Quality: Because GPON networks separate data, voice, and video into three layers, it can provide better levels of quality for each type.
