Optical Splitter Communication Industry Standards
Optical splitters and couplers split or combine light—distributing signals injected into a single fiber strand to multiple fibers, enabling point to multi-point communication in Fiber To The Home (FTTH) networks based on ITU. T PON standards such as GPON, XGS-PON and new 25 and 50G. Bandwidth is shared amongst customers in a PON, and the bandwidth received by a customer is not related to the power received at the optical network terminal (ONT) as long as the power is high enough so the ONT can operate. Splits are most commonly factors of 2, such as 1x2, 1x4, 1x8, 1x16, 1x32. Passive Optical Network (PON) stands as a foundational technology in the evolution of modern telecommunications, serving as the cornerstone for high-speed fiber-optic networks. 16 to 128) ONUs communicate with an OLT via optical splitter(s). 47 Billion USD in 2020 and is expected to grow at an average rate of 5.
