Today science and technology, communications technology is evolving, more and more varieties of communications networks, communications networks give users a more convenient, efficient and diverse services, quality of service while also getting high communications network. Today, running toward digital telecommunications networks, broadband, intelligent and integrated direction. Telecommunications network generally consists of four parts, including at the heart of the backbone network, in addition to metro, access, and the user’s local network. Which is located between the metropolitan access network/backbone network and the user’s local network, local users to play the role of a bridge into the metropolitan area network/backbone network. Currently, the copper access network has gradually been replaced by optical fiber, and ultimately all-optical access. Fiber access can be divided into active and passive. Which includes a passive optical network EPON and GPON, and in practical applications now more extensive than EPON GPON applications, so this only on Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) expanded introduction. |
