Why FTTx PON

Reduced OpEx: Passive components network
High reliability Fewer truck rolls
Decreased power expenses
Faster installation times

Reduced CapEx:
1 - 64 subscribers per fiber
1 Fiber +N transceivers vs. N Fibers + 2N transceivers

Increased Revenue Opportunities:

Multi-service: Data, Voice (TDM & VoIP), Video (RF Overlay & IPTV)
Video:
RF Overlay: Traditional RF broadcast services to deliver basic and premium channels
IPTV: IP-based technology for video-on-demand and premium services

Scalability:
CO Equipment shared New subscribers added easily as the network grows
Bandwidth is shared Existing subscriber bandwidth can be changed on
demand
