• Download the Whitepaper (314 KB) >>

Abstract
Gigabit PON is an attractive FTTH broadband access network technology because it meets the needs of carriers world-wide. GE-PON has successfully demonstrated this approach and is being deployed in high volume in Asia, while the GPON standard will provide similar capabilities for carriers in North America. It includes all of the ingredients for market success - a consumer base that is eager to adopt a much faster and more comprehensive set of high-speed services, a set of carriers ready to offer those services and an infrastructure of silicon, and system vendors that are capable of developing and deploying gigabit PON technology. PMCSierra is leveraging its experience in GE-PON based gigabit FTTH to also bring GPON-based products to the market.
