PMC-Sierra launches pluggable GPON ONT design
PMC-Sierra
PAS65823A-KIT
PMC-Sierra's pluggable GPON optical network terminal (ONT) reference design can connect any customer premises equipment (CPE) equipped with a standard SFP port to a high-speed passive optical network.
The low-power, plug-and-play ONT - the PAS65823A-KIT - allows carriers and system vendors to upgrade existing service-oriented home and small/medium business equipment, including gateways, routers and integrated access devices, to full GPON functionality without hardware or software redesign.
This eliminates the need for carriers and service providers to deploy new CPE when introducing advanced fibre-based services.
The pluggable ONT, which is based on the company's GPON system on chip for mini-ONT applications, is powered by standard interfaces in the host device and does not require a dedicated power supply.
This new design was demonstrated at Optinet China in Beijing on 26-27 May 2010.
