What is GPON SFP?
GPON SFP is one type of gigabit optical transceivers that are used in GPON system, which is compliant with ITU-T G. 984.2 standard. It is a bidirectional module that has SC receptacle and works over simplex single-mode fiber optic cable.
What is a GPON module?
The GPON module allows any RouterBOARD device to be used for Fiber to Home installations without any special modems or software. It’s a plug and play solution means you simply plug it into your device, and no special configuration is needed.
What is SFP in Olt?
SFP stands for ‘Small Form-factor Pluggable’. A GPON SFP module transmits and receives signals of different wavelengths between the OLT at the ‘Central Office’ side and the ONT at the end users side. GPON SFPs utilize both the upstream data and downstream data by means of Optical Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM).
What is EPON SFP?
SOPTO’s EPON SFP is a series of optical transceiver modules operating in Ethernet Passive Optical Networks (EPON). Ethernet Passive Optical Networks (GEPON or EPON) IEEE 802.3ah standards have defined downstream data rates up to 1.25Gbps.
How does GPON technology work?
GPON is a river of light A laser in the OLT injects the photons from the central office to a fibre-optic cable made of glass and plastic that ends at a passive optical splitter. The splitter breaks the single signal from the central office into numerous signals that may eventually be distributed to up to 64 customers.
What is SFP vs SFP+?
The main difference between SFP and SFP+ is that the SFP+ is used in Gigabit Ethernet applications while SFP is for 100Bse or 1000Base applications. SFP+ transceivers use the same dimensions of pluggable transceivers in the 10Gbs Ethernet and 8.5Gbs fiber channel with SFP.
Is GPON a fiber?
GPON networks are currently the leading form of Passive Optical Networks (PONs), and offer up to a 1:64 ratio on a single optical fiber, meaning, a single fiber from the OLT can deliver video, data and voice signals to up to 64 end users (or residences).
