Calix GPON vs XG-PON vs XGS-PON
GPON
Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) is a fixed access technology that uses fiber optic cables to provide voice, data, and video services at gigabit speeds. GPON is the leading form of Passive Optical Network (PON), and it replaces the traditional Ethernet design with a two-tier optic network. GPON uses Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (WDM) to transmit data of different upstream/downstream wavelengths over the same ODN
10 GPON
In developed countries, nearly 85% of the population accesses the internet from home. This fact increases the need for more bandwidth.
Significantly increased bandwidth can result in slower downloads, choppy streaming, and interruptions during online activities. 10GPON technology enables consumers and businesses to avoid problems like lag and buffering.
Keep reading for a complete G PON guide and an introduction to 10GPON technology.
XGSPON
What Is XG(S)-PON?
XG(S)-PON is evolved from the existing GPON technology, the XG-PON is with the bandwidth of 10G for downstream and 2.5G for upstream, XGS-PON with the bandwidth of 10G for downstream and 10G for upstream. XGS-PON is a higher bandwidth, symmetric version of GPON. Again, the same capabilities of GPON and can co-exist on the same fiber with GPON.
