passive optical network

The use of a passive optical network is a common example of fiber to the home.

A passive optical network is a form of fiber-optic access network.

Passive optical networks do not use electrically powered components to split the signal.

Passive optical networks have both advantages and disadvantages over active networks.

Passive optical networks also have some disadvantages.

The drivers behind the modern passive optical network are high reliability, low cost, passive functionality.

A passive optical network shares fiber optic strands for portions of the network.

Inside plant will also have distribution frames and other equipment including passive optical network (name depends on the Service Provider).

These are active optical networks and passive optical networks.

One family of standards known as EPON uses a passive optical network.

FTTH premises depend on both active and passive optical networks to function.

Passive optical networks, or PONs, have some distinct advantages.

Because it requires power, an active optical network inherently is less reliable than a passive optical network.

Passive optical network (PON) architecture has become a cost effective way to meet performance demands in access networks.
