Optical LAN Solutions Passive Optical Network Applied to the Enterprise
Key Terms
• PON - Passive Optical Network - (Carrier) Between Central Office (CO), or substation, and the premises in FTTx.
• POL - Passive Optical Local Area Network (LAN)
- (Enterprise) Between the data center / equipment room and the user*.
*A user can be a human or device. (Virtually any IP device with an RJ-45 interface)
• GPON - Gigabit Passive Optical Network
GPON Details
• Single, singlemode fiber to each work area
- Downstream up to 2.4Gbs @ 1490nm – (TDM) voice, data, switched video
- Upstream up to 1.2Gbs @ 1310nm – (TDMA) voice, data, signaling video
- WDM video (RF/Analog) overlay @ 1550nm
- All simultaneous
- ITU-G.984 standard recommendations
• Technically Future Proof (Passive Components)
- SM fiber has an unknown bandwidth limitation.
- Until electronics reach the limit, glass manufacturers will not design
“next generation” singlemode
- Upgrades to the next generation are as simple as replacing the electronics
A thought to begin with…
“If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got.”
Keeping pace with the many changes in IT
Change has been to main driver for most enterprises in the last decade
Bandwidth requirements have increased by order of magnitude
Numbers and type of devices connected has also jumped dramatically
Traffic patterns have shifted to more centralised and cloud based
Ironically It’s all happened in an economic environment that gives IT much less to spend.
Yet costly work groups switch based architecture are built the same way
The new Enterprise
• Rethinking of the physical infrastructure / abandoning old assumptions
• Re-evaluation of the way the LAN architecture is deployed
• Re-consideration of processes and vendors
• Alignment of IT to the business agenda
Gradually an increasing number of enterprises are abandoning some of
the assumption they used to make and start looking at alternatives
GPON Evolution
The success of the OSP system has created an opportunity to bring the same system design into the enterprise LAN
IT architectures are changing and therefore the network architecture has to adapt with it. Evolution of network technologies…departmental and distributed services vs. to centralised resources into the Data Center or even into the cloud Emerging trend where intelligence and functionality features are centralised back to a single location or aggregation Think of Wireless LAN…. Where a relative number of non-intelligent access points feed-up into centralised controllers that provide all the intelligence and functionality for the whole wireless LAN Now think of GPON as the other disruptive technology where again we are using passive technology down to the desktop and then centralise a lot of the intelligence at the aggregation or core layer within that architecture.
Game changer & Disruptive Technology
Taking unnecessary intelligence and functionality away from the edge in order to create a more efficient architecture
OLS Market Drivers
• Functionality – Understand business requirements – Rethink and revaluate old assumptions
• Financial – Reconsider procurement – What business problem does it solve?
• Operational – Improve efficiency / reduce OPEX
PON Facts and Benefits
• No power required from the data center to the user area
• Multiple buildings served by one main equipment room
• Up to 50% reduction in power consumption
• Significantly reduced cabling construction costs
• Reduced bulk allow for more flexible architectural design considerations • Uses a single strand of single-mode graded fiber.
