to avoid excessive Stimulated Brillouin Scattering
(SBS) in the connected fibres. Back-scatter can
significantly reduce CNR and CSO performance.
Hence the models with 80, 100, 120, 160, 200 and
250 mW power output should be ordered with the
appropriate split, keeping the power per port at a
more manageable and safe level.

(1) These output powers are nominal for single output.
Higher output modules employ an integrated optical splitter, which
reduces the output power per port according to number of split.
For instance, an EDFA-80-2-SC has two output ports with 40 mW
each, totaling 80 mW. n cable television applications no more
than 40 mW(16 dBm) launch level per fibre line should be
planned to avoid excessive Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS)
in the connected fibres. Back-scatter can significantly reduce
CNR and CSO performance. Hence the models with 80, 100,
160, 200, 250, 320, 480, 640, 960 and 1280 mWpower should be
ordered with an appropriate split, keeping the power per port to a
more manageable level.
(2) For lower power models, 20 mWto 200 mW.
(3) For higher power models, 250 mWto 1280 mW.
(4) For the 1280 mW/ 32 port unit, the optical input connector is
SC/APC and the 32 output connectors are LC/APC due to
space restrictions.

The Light Link Series 2, deep fibre Optical Distribution Node ODN4P is a prime building block for high performance
networks, designed for adaptability, scalability and optional return path segmentation. The configuration options are well
suited for Hybrid Fibre Coaxial (HFC) networks with smaller nodes and very high traffic handling capability for nternet and
telephony.
This node employs advanced modular technology to provide a cost effective and flexible solution for expanding network
architectures. The optical distribution node may be configured with up to two optical receivers, two return path optical
transmitters and two power supply units, hence providing network redundancy. The node incorporates four high RF outputs
up to 870 MHz or 1000 MHz.
The ODN4Putilises the latest in fibre optic technology to emerge as the final active component in the fibre network. Designed
for fibre-to-the-curb (FTTC) deployment, this node is also well suited for the last mile in fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP)
applications.
The forward path has redundancy capability with fully automatic AB switching where the forward control model is optioned.
Return path ingress control can be achieved by remotely muting the associated return RF port.

AppIication
The return path optical transmitter ODNRT-Ais a plug-in module for the ODN1315 deep fibre optical distribution node. The
ODNRT-A provides comprehensive status monitoring of the node, which can be viewed via the OCM platform.
This unit employs high performance, lowRN, uncooled, isolated DFB or FPlaser technology to provide the return path from
node to headend. Optical wavelength options are available in 1310 nm, or the 1550 nm range, which includes CWDM lasers.
The ODNRT-A module also transmits an out-of-band pilot tone at 4.5 MHz for return path alignment. This can be further
enhanced for status monitoring of the node, when ordered with the SMSoption (status monitoring system).
The SMS data is FSK modulated on the pilot tone to include all operating parameters of the optical node as listed on page 2.
This information is delivered back to the headend using our RPQRM quad optical receiver module incorporating a FSK
demodulator.
The ODNRT-A-SMS together with the RPQRM receiver module at the headend provide comprehensive monitoring facilities
for the remote optical node. Noisy return paths can be muted in the associated RPQRM port via the NMS3 management
system.
Utilises uncooled, isolated DFB lasers where high performance is required or Fabry-Perot lasers for economic
solutions.
Operating wavelength options include 1310 nm and TU standards based coarse wavelength division multiplexing
(CWDM) applications 1470 to 1610 nm.
Return bandwidth of 5 to 220 MHz plus a 4.5 MHz pilot for return path alignment. mproved high-pass filter on
return input and no external filter required.
mproved heat dissipation and reduced power stress on +13.5V rail.
Easy, fixed RF attenuator to improve matching on OM control.
NMS3 network management system compatible.
Easy to install and maintain with improved backplane connectivity.
When optioned with SMS, only one plug-in module performs the tasks of both a return transmitter and a status
monitoring module.

The RLM return path laser module is a plug-in transmitter designed to fit into the AMCP1315. The RLM provides an economic
solution for upstream transmission of DOCSSreturn data or other two-way HFCapplications.
The plug-in module is used together with a diplexer inside the AMCP1315 to suit a variety of frequency band-splits. This
makes the AMCP1315 optical node a versatile unit for connecting multi-apartment buildings (MDU).
The RLM can be optioned for two different modes of status monitoring:
1. The pilot-only model verifies if the AMCP1315 has a valid optical input. f it doesn't, the laser or the pilot tone is switched
off. This can be detected at the headend site as a remote alarm condition. The operation mode is jumper selectable on the
RLM module.
2. The SMS (Status Monitoring System) model sends a continuous repeated data stream to the associated RPQRM return
path receiver. The data is then decoded and made available to the readout on the OCM chassis and the NMS3 network
management system.
Plug and play optical laser and diplexer modules.
Return bandwidth of 5 to 200 MHz available, limited only by plug-in diplexer.
High optical power output with outstanding DOCSS performance, permitting higher speed modulation modes in the
upstream path.
Fully compatible with all AM, FSK, QAM, QPSK and FM transmission systems for 1310 nm and 1550 nm.
Selection of FP and DFB lasers available, including CWDM wavelengths.
Choice of frequency band splits via the AMCP1315 diplexer options.
LED indicators monitoring the presence of optical output power and laser bias current. Plus a summary of the alarm
status when optioned with SMS.
FSK status monitoring option via 4.5 MHz pilot carrier and associated RP4RM return path receiver. No transponder
needed.

with 10 slots for high density applications and full power redundancy.
Comprehensive control and monitoring of the OCM is included in the chassis itself, with a 4 line LCDand keypad to navigate
through any of the modules' various monitoring and control features.
As a crucial element in any small or large city optical network, the OCMR is designed with fully modular and hot-swappable
active parts which allowfor continual system operation, providing uninterrupted services to the end subscriber.
The OCMRcan be optioned with an integrated SNMPagent and Ethernet port. This makes it possible to monitor and control
an OCMRchassis through an Pnetwork with PBN's NMS3-NetCraft software or an SNMPmanager.
5 RU high, 19" wide, 10 slot chassis for PBN designed plug in modules.
Can be equipped with dual, hot-swappable power supplies for redundant power applications.
Large LCD panel for easy setup of modules and system monitoring.
EC297 compatible 19" rack.
Space below modules for optical fibre patch cords and RF cable access.
Mountable at RU intervals allowing maximum use of rack space in communications cabinets.
Horizontal, fan forced airflow permits the mounting of multiple OCMR without the need for rack space clearance
between chassis.

* These output powers are nominal for single output modules. Higher output
modules employ an integrated optical splitter, which reduces the output
power per port according to the number of split. For instance, an EDFAM-
80-2-SC has two output ports with 40 mWeach, totaling 80 mW. In cable
television applications no more than 40 mW(16 dBm) launch level per fibre
line should be planned to avoid excessive Stimulated Brillouin Scattering
(SBS) in the connected fibres. Back-scatter can significantly reduce CNR
and CSO performance. Hence the models with 80, 100, 160, 200 and
250 mWpower should be ordered with an appropriate split, keeping the
power per port to a more manageable level.

FPCM
The Light Link Series 3 Forward Path Control Module, the FPCM has been designed to provide a network pilot for control
functions in optical nodes out in the field.
Operating over an agile frequency range of 80 to 90 MHz, the FPCM enables forward path control without interference to any
existing program channel allocations.
The FPCM module works in conjunction with the NMS3 Dragon Nest network management server and allows the operator to
control any particular optical node in the network.
Control functionality includes forward path receiver A-B switching, remote return path attenuation settings per port, plus
headend control over the node's return path ingress levels via a multi-level ingress control function. Problematic return path
ingress noise can nowbe identified and controlled remotely by systematically stepping the attenuation on each of the node's
individual return path streams, and minimising service interruptions.
This module functionality provides a fast and economic solution to what would normally require lengthy on field diagnostics to
locate the source of return path ingress noise. The FPCM, combined with PBN NMS3 allows the operator to remotely
diagnose and pin-point the source of ingress.
Provides the forward path control of optical nodes in the field.
Utilises a single slot on the OCM platform to provide control over the entire network.
Frequency agile data modulation within the range of 80 MHz to 90 Mhz.
ncludes three RF outputs for connection with forward path lasers transmitters.
An ethernet access port on the front of the module provides the connection with the NMS3 management software.
AppIication
The FPCM allows the user to control optical nodes remotely, preventing down-time and providing cost effective system
flexibility. Sometimes in a HFCnetwork a return path stream becomes corrupted due to ingress noise at a subscriber's cable
modem. Since some 500 cable modems may rely on one optical node return path, a single corrupted return path stream can
lock out all 500 users.
Having the capability to reduce and/or shutdown a quarter of the return path streams, the operator can now reduce the
number of affected subscribers by 75 %. n some cases where only a reduction in return path level is needed, all, bar the
offending user, may continue to operate.
This high level of control gives the user power to easily manipulate an optical node where a call out would have been
necessary. The remote AB switching control allows the user to customise a particular node's redundancy features. f
automatic switching is being deployed where signal Ais corrupted but its level has not dropped, the user can force the switch
to signal Bfrom the comfort of the head office in a fewseconds restoring up to 500 users.

Features
RPQRM
The Light Link Series 3 return path quad receiver module (RPQRM) is designed to plug into PBN's optical communications
mainframe system (OCM).
This unit incorporates four independent optical return path receivers that operate at any wavelength between 1300 to 1610
nm. This unit also suits CWDM and DWDM applications.
The user can set each receiver individually for operation in either manual gain control (MGC) mode or automatic gain control
(AGC) mode. n AGCmode the receiver employs a 4.5 MHz pilot detection to maintain its constant gain. There is also an FSK
demodulator option, which allows for complete field node status monitoring. This feature can automatically detect the type of
connected field node, being an AMCP1315, ODN1315, PBN-DN1, CPON, or any other compatible optical node.
Comprehensive status monitoring of each receiver within the module is available via the OCM user interface. The RPQRM
extracts the field node data, including its own operational parameters for display at the OCM user interface and the NMS3
network manager. This allows complete supervision of the connected optical field nodes. The status is reported through the
network management system.
Four return path receivers in one module.
Bandwidth 5 to 200 MHz.
1300 to1610 nm operating wavelength, to suit CWDM and DWDM applications.
User selectable MGC or AGC.

RFABM
The RF protection A-B switch (RFABM) is a coaxial relay switch designed for automatic or manual operation. The switch is
used in sub-headends with dual forward path feeds or in a protected ring system. f one of the RF feeds fails, the switch will
change to the other input and maintain RF output. An alternate application is for dual return paths from a remote node or from
a remote sub-headend.
The standard module includes wide band RF detection. The sum of all carriers present will determine the RF switching
levels. There is an option to include RF filters for pilot based operation, such as with our 4.5 MHz return path pilot system.
Pilot filters can also be ordered for forward path applications.
The module includes high isolation impedance matched RF switching relays, which are micro-processor controlled. The
switching action may be initiated automatically or manually. n automatic mode, channel Ahas preference, unless it is outside
the user-defined threshold range and channel Bis inside thereof.
The module has programmable maximum and minimum switching thresholds. Comprehensive status monitoring of each
module is available via the OCM user interface and can be output to remote status monitoring systems.

OPSC
The Optical Protection Switching Coupler (OPSC) is an optical switching device that maintains signal on both outputs in the
event of failure of one of two lasers connected to its inputs. n normal operation mode, the OPSC allows the output from two
laser modules to pass straight through. n the event of a laser failure, the OPSC automatically activates a switching optical
coupler to maintain a reduced power signal on both fibres from a single laser module.
t contains an optical coupler that directs signal from each of two inputs to each of two outputs. When a switching action is
initiated by automatic or manual operation, the signal of one input is equally divided between the two outputs.
The module accepts external analogue control inputs with adjustable trigger points. There are manual override controls and
alarm warning indicators. There are also options for internal optical power sensors on the inputs.
Comprehensive status monitoring of each module is available via the OCM Control Power Module and can be output to
remote status monitoring systems.

LL802
Media Converters for Gigabit & Fast Ethernet/ATM/Serial Data
The LL802 media converter range is designed to adapt conventional copper data networks to optical fibre.
These converters support twisted pair RJ-45 connectors for the copper system and flat polished duplex SC/PC fibre optic
connectors for the optical network. This facilitates the use of conventional or legacy switching and routing equipment with 10
Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps copper interfaces and converts these at minimum cost to fibre optic trunk lines.
The units are available for multimode fibres or for single mode fibres. Very long distances are possible if the media converters
are operated in full duplex mode. Collision domain limitations no longer apply for full duplex fibre links between ethernet
switches. Using single mode fibres, distances of 20, 30, 50 km or more are readily achievable.
ATM media converters and serial data media converters are also available in the same housing style.
The standard units use two fibres, one to send data and one to receive data. Options are available for bi-directional operation
over one single mode fibre core, using 1550 nm in one direction and 1310 nm in the other.
Extends full duplex ethernet, fast ethernet, or Gigabit ethernet links from copper to fibre.
Supports ST, duplex SC/PC, MT-RJ and LCfibre connectors on most models.
EEE802.3 standards compliant.
Compatible with 10BaseFL, 100BaseFx or 1000BaseSx/Lx fibre optic interface ports from other compliant vendors.
Options for ATM links (STM1/OCM3 or STM4/OC12) and RS232/422/485 serial data links in the same housing.
Single mode fibre converters can operate in full duplex mode on 20, 30 or 50 km fibre, with options up to 100 km.
Clear indicator LEDs for link status and data activity for both the copper and the fibre interface.
Use in stand-alone mode with external plug-pack power supply, or combine multiple units in an optional RCC-802
subrack (19") for 4, 8 or 12 converters.

LL802D
Fast Ethernet Fibre Node for Daisy-Chain Networks
The LL802D optical node is designed for daisy-chain net topologies in Campus deployments or ntelligent Traffic Systems
and similar applications. Each node has two fibre ports and four copper ports.
The fibre ports are designed to operate bi-directionally on a single wavelength, over one single mode fibre for up to 15 km.
There is an option for dual multimode fibres up to 2 km per link.
Atypical application would be a highway with loop detectors every 0.5 km or so, together with variable message signs, weigh-
in-motion detectors, help-phones with VoP cards, P based video cameras, etc. An integrated SNMP agent permits
continuous remote system monitoring, irrespective of connected devices.
This bi-directional single fibre solution can produce substantial savings where line rental is paid per fibre core.

LB2050
The LBseries fibre optic link provides a simple, easy to install and cost effective alternative to coaxial cable connection to the
LowNoise Converter (LNC) input of your satellite receiver. The unit can also be used as an L-band uplink in VSATterminals.
Optical fibre used for the link is 1310 nm singlemode, which provides electrical and EM isolation. The units offer virtually
identical performance for fibre optic links from 20 metres up to 20 kilometres.
The link modules are physically small allowing for easy mounting in any indoor or suitably sheltered location. DCpower to the
units is fed direct via input leads. The transmitter module has power feed capability to supply DC voltage to the LNC in the
satellite dish.
The LNB/LNCsupply voltage can be disabled by removing an internal jumper.
The LBTX2050 transmitter comes standard with AGC operation to maintain a constant signal level, irrespective of satellite
receive levels.
Affordable and reliable replacement for coaxial cable.
950 to 2050 MHz bandwidth.
Electrical and EM isolation.
Small size for ease of installation.

Wavelength Division Multiplexers
PBN offers a range of optical wavelength division multiplexers (WDM) to further enhance fibre optic networks by increasing
the transmission capacity of fibre to double that used by a single wavelength. The wavelengths of interest are 1310 nm and
1550 nm.
Using fused biconic taper (FBT) techniques and fibre Bragg grating (FBG) designs, the WDM units provide high wavelength
isolation and lowoptical loss.

The variants are available in three distinct housings from its most basic tubular packed form, through a small and robust
rectangular package, to a rugged metal housing for the high isolation models.

Tubular housing for direct splicing into the fibre network, or rugged enclosures for standalone applications.
Completely passive devices.
High reliability with precision tolerances.
High optical isolation and high directivity.
Very low optical through loss and high return loss.
Wide temperature range, making the units suitable for outdoor applications.

Optical Splitters Standalone
PBN offers a comprehensive range of fibre optic splitters to complement our well-known range of optical laser transmitters,
optical receivers, erbium doped fibre amplifiers, and optical switches.
The OSP-S product lines with fibre optical couplers are designed for single mode fibre applications. Available in a range of
splits from 2 to 32 ports and various split ratios to suit specific network requirements, these couplers provide ideal solutions for
lowloss optical transmission to multiple receiver sites.
The use of optical splitters allows the optical power of headend laser transmitters or optical amplifiers to feed multiple field
nodes, hence maximising the use of optical transmission equipment and producing economic results for the operator. The
units are reciprocal and can also be used to combine multiple return path transmitters onto one fibre to a single return path
receiver.
The OSP-Soptical splitter comes in various packages depending on the specific model, (refer to ordering information). Fibre
pigtails are available in 0.9 mm nylon jacket or 2 mm yellow buffering. Various connector types are available, including
SC/APC, LC/APC, E2000/APC, FC/APCor SToptical connectors. Flat polished variants are also available.

Optical Circulator
The PBN polarisation independent optical circulator is a multi-port passive device, which routes one incoming optical signal
from port 1 to port 2 and another signal from port 2 to port 3. A4 port version of the circulator also routes an incoming signal
from port 3 to port 4.
The circulator features low insertion loss, low cross talk, high isolation, a large bandwidth with choices for 1310 nm or 1550
nm centre wavelengths, and lowpolarisation dependent loss.
The circulator is used in reflectometers and distance measuring equipment, but also finds many useful applications in full
duplex bi-directional data transmission systems, over one fibre core.
The best performance is achieved with angle polished connectors (APC). They provide a very high reflection loss, in the same
order of magnitude as the isolation of the circulator.
The unit comes in a tubular housing with connectorised pigtails or with bare fibre tails for direct splicing into the equipment.
High optical isolation.
High directivity.
80 nm useable bandwidth.
Available for 1310 nm or 1550 nm centre wavelengths.

Multimode optical fibre is generally used for low speed
data applications below 622 Mbps.
Limited bandwidth - up to 500 MHz.
Equipment utilising multimode optical fibre is generally
much cheaper.
Splicing and installation terminations are not as critical
as single mode optical fibre.
Termination is simple and lower in cost than single
mode optical fibre terminations.
Generally used within buildings for data applications.
Singlemode optical fibre is generally used for data
speeds above 34 Mbps.
Multi channel video, data and audio services also
generally utilise single mode optical fibre.
Singlemode optical fibre should be the preferred
option offering greater bandwidth and extremely low
loss characteristics.
Singlemode optical fibre is essential in multi channel
video or CATV/MATV applications.

ATM: Short for Asynchronous Transfer Mode, a network technology based on transferring data
in cells or packets of a fixed size. The cell used with ATM is relatively small compared to units
used with older technologies. The small, constant cell size allows ATM equipment to transmit.
Access Nodes: Points on the edge of the Access Network that concentrate individual access
lines into a smaller number of feeder lines. Access Nodes may also perform various forms of
protocol conversion. Typical Access Nodes are Digital Loop Carrier systems concentrating
individual voice lines to T1 lines, cellular antenna sites, PBXs, and Optical Network Units
(ONUs)
ADSL: Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line: Modems attached to twisted pair copper wiring that
transmit from 1.5 Mbps to 9 Mbps downstream (to the subscriber) and from 16 kbps to 800 kbps
upstream, depending on line distance.
APON: ATM-based Passive Optical Network: a passive optical network running ATM.
ATM: Asynchronous Transfer Mode: an ultra high speed data transmission protocol which
chops data into 53 byte fixed length cells, of which 5 are header and 48 bytes are payload.
B-ISDN: Broadband ntegrated Digital Network: A digital network with ATM switching operating
at data rates in excess of 1.544 or 2.048 Mbps. ATM enables transport and switching of voice,
data, image, and video over the same infrastructure.
CabIe modem: An external device or card that links to a PC to bring Ethernet data services
from the cable TV network to SOHO (small office/home office) customers or residential users.
Because the coaxial cable used by cable TV provides much greater bandwidth than telephone
lines, a cable modem can be used to achieve extremely fast access to the world wide web.
CATV: Community Access Television: also known as Cable TV.CPE Customer Premises
Equipment: that portion of the ADSL system residing within the customer's premises.
CMTS: Cable modem termination system. Device in the headend of a cable TV network that
channels data traffic to residential customers over the hybrid fibre coax network. CMTSs
achieve their task by applying quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM, q.v.) to the radio
frequencies used for TV broadcasting. This technique conforms to the DOCSS specification
(q.v.) and allows home or small business users to access the CMTS via an Ethernet link to their
cable modem.
CPON: Customer premises optical node. CPON is the customer unit that enables delivery
customer services such as plain old telephone alarm panels, faxes, modems, Cable TV, satellite
digital services, video on demand and internet services.
CWDM: Coarse wave division multiplexing. The technique of running a small amount of
wavelengths (typically four or less) over a single fibreoptic connection (see DWDM)
DOCSIS: Data over cable systems (or service) interface specification. A series of specs that
define how data can be carried in Ethernet format over cable TV lines. Originated and regulated
by Cable Television Laboratories (CableLabs), a consortium of North and South American cable
TV operators.
DSLAM: Digital subscriber line access multiplexer. A device that controls the modulation and
flow of voice and data between the carrier network and multiple copper connections.
DWDM: Dense wavelength-division multiplexing. The technique of running many (typically 8 or
more) individual wavelengths of light over a single fibreoptic connection. DWDM wavelengths
typically operate at 1310 nanometres or 1550 nm, depending on the number of wavelengths or
"channels" driven over the fibre.
E1: European basic multiplex rate which packs thirty voice channels into a 256 bit frame and
transmitted at 2.048 Mbps.
EPON / GEPON: Ethernet / Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Network.
Ethernet: Ethernet is a local area network (LAN)*1 technology that transmits information
between computers at speeds of 10 and 100 million bits per second (Mbps). Currently the most
widely used version of Ethernet technology is the 10-Mbps twisted-pair variety.
Fibre node: Also known as a hub in cable TV network parlance. Generally, the location in the
cable TV provider's network where Fibre is converted to coax for delivery of service to home or
small business users. Usually housed in a box mounted outdoors on a stand or pole.
FTTA: Stands for Fibre To The Apartment.
FTTC: Fibre to the curb: Refers to the scenario when fibre is pulled from the CO to a so-called
fibre node or to a high-rate digital terminal in an outdoor cabinet alongside homes or office
buildings.
FTTH: Fibre to the home. Refers to providing last-mile fibre connectivity directly to residential
users, instead of relying on coax or copper. Today's FTTH deployments are generally limited to
some residential PON (q.v.) trials being undertaken by RBOCs (regional Bell operating
companies) such as BellSouth, although a range of smaller independent Telcos and CLECs also
have installed FTTH lines.
FTTx: Fibre To The Home or Apartment.
Gigabit Ethernet: Ethernet with transmission speeds of 1 gigabit per second.
HDSL: High data rate Digital Subscribe Line: Modems on either end of one or more twisted pair
wires that deliver T1 or E1 speeds. At present T1 requires two lines and E1 requires three. See
SDSL for one line HDSL.
HDTV: High Definition Television, a new type of television that provides much better resolution
than current television based on the NTSC standard.
Headend: The cable TV provider's equivalent of a central office. The location where TV and
data broadcast signals originating in the provider's core network are transmitted to and from a
network of hubs or nodes. Most headend locations serve multiple hubs in a radius of about 100
miles. A headend is typically housed in a building or data centre and can be shared among
many providers.
HFC: Hybrid fibre coax. A network in which a cable TV operator has replaced the coax
connections that link its headend to neighbourhood nodes with fibretypically to support data
connectivity for its customers.
IP: nternet Protocol: a protocol developed to allow cooperating computers to share resources
across a network. t was developed by a community of researchers centred around the
ARPAnet.
ISP: nternet Service Provider: an organisation offering and providing nternet services to the
public and having its own computer servers to provide the services offered.
LAN: Local Area Network - a computer network that spans a relatively small area. Most LANs
are confined to a single building or group of buildings. However, one LAN can be connected o
other LANs over any distance via telephone lines and radio waves. A system of LANs
connected in this way is called a wide area network (WAN)
MAN: Metropolitan Area Network. Basically, a bigger version of a LAN.
MATV: Master antenna television.
Mbps: Megabits Per Second or Million Bits Per Second, a measure of data transfer speed.
MPEG: Motion Picture Experts Group: the group that has defined the standards for compressed
video transmission.
MSO: Multi-service operator. A term coined for a new breed of service provider that offers cable
TV, voice telephony, and data services.

and provides a management platform, incorporating advanced photonic switching and
multiplexing.
OLT: Optical line terminal. A switch used in PONs to manage the two-way multiple shared
connections created by the PON splitters. Also known as the headend equipment connected to
a PON.
ONU: Optical network unit. A generic term meaning any device that converts optical signals
over fibre to copper-based electrical signals, typically within 1,000 feet of a residence or
business. ONUs are key elements of "fibre to the curb" approach to access. The ONUs in that
case sit inside outdoor controlled environmental vaults or remote terminals.
Packet: A piece of message transmitted over a packet-switching network. One of the key
features of a packet is that it contains the destination address in addition to the data.
PON: Passive optical network. A network in which bandwidth travelling over fibre is shared
among multiple users, via the use of passive optical splitters. PONs are typically viewed as an
economical alternative to running dedicated fibre to home or business customers.
POTS: Plain Old Telephone Service: the only name recognised around the world for basic
analog telephone service. POTS takes the lowest 4kHz of bandwidth on twisted pair wiring. Any
service sharing a line with POTS must either use frequencies above POTS or convert POTS to
digital and interleave with other data signals.
QAM: Quadrature amplitude modulation. The technique used by modems and other gear to
squeeze digital data into analog format for transmission on copper phone lines.
RF: Refers to Radio Frequency.
SDH: Synchronous Digital Hierarchy: A set of standard fibre-optic-based serial standards
planned for use with SONET and ATM in Europe.
SMATV: Satellite master antenna television.
SONET: Synchronous Optical Network: A family of fibreoptic transmission rates from 51.84
Mbps to 13.27 Gbps (and increasing), created to provide the flexibility needed to transport many
digital signals with different capacities and to provide a design standard for manufacturers.
STS-1 SONET: Basic transmission rate of 51.84 Mbps.
Twisted-Pair CabIe: A type of cable that consists of two independently insulated wires twisted
around one another. One wire carries the signal while the other wire is grounded and absorbs
signal interference. Twisted-pair cable is used by older telephone networks and is the least
expensive type of local-area network (LAN) cable.
VDSL: Very high data rate Digital Subscriber Line: Modem for twisted-pair access operating at
data rates from 12.9 to 52.8 Mbps with corresponding maximum reach ranging from 4500 feet
to 1000 feet of 24 gauge twisted pair.
VOD: Video on Demand. VoIP: Voice Over nternet Protocol.
WAN: Wide Area Network: Private network facilities, usually offered by public telephone
companies but increasingly available from alternative access providers (sometimes called
Competitive Access Providers, or CAPs), that link business network nodes.
WDM: Wavelength Division Multiplexing. The technique of running many individual
wavelengths of light over a single fibreoptic connection. WDM wavelengths typically operate at
1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths simultaneously.
