GPON & EPON networks provide high throughput point-to-multipoint connections from the Point of Presence (POP) to the customer premise. It can be profitably used in massive deployments of triple-play services as it offers a low CapEX and OPEX. It is also possible to optimize TCO when fiber resources are limited, by deploying point-to-point active optical networks. The Raisecom xPON product line supports both the EPON and 10G-EPON technologies introduced by IEEE, as well as the GPON/XGS-PON technologies introduced by ITU. The former offers a GE or 10G symmetric bit rate, while the latter offers symmetric/asymmetric 2.5GE/10G downstream and 1.25GE/10GE upstream bit rates.
