Pluggable transceivers increase GPON
port density
Transceivers meet the specifications for the enhanced wavelength allocation plan specified in G.984.5 as well as for "reach extenders" that increase the servable PON distance beyond 20km.
NeoPhotonics has developed a new line of "pluggable" GPON transceivers, compliant with the ITU-T G.984.5 networking standard, to augment its portfolio of biplexer and triplexer modules used in "fibre to the premise" (FTTP) networks around the world The new transceivers meet the specifications for the enhanced wavelength allocation plan specified in G.984.5 as well as for the "reach extenders" that increase the servable PON distance beyond 20km (from the "central office" to the customer)

GPON transceivers comply with latest specs
NeoPhotonics has released a full line of GPON transceivers compliant with the ITU-T G.984.2 Class B+ standard to augment its portfolio of widely deployed FTTx biplexer and triplexer modules.
GPON transceivers ease network construction
NeoPhotonics' OLT and ONU devices offer a complete line of pluggable transceivers to GPON systems manufacturers.
Furthermore, pluggable transceivers give systems designers more flexibility in configuring their platforms for different network applications and allow higher port densities as they physically separate the optical interface from the rest of the system hardware.
The new line includes SFP biplexers for FTTP central office, or optical line terminal (OLT), applications as well as modules for use in optical networking units (ONUs), which are located at the customer premises.
Together the OLT and ONU devices comprise a comprehensive line of small form factor transceivers to GPON systems manufacturers.
"These new GPON transceivers complement well our current portfolio of FTTP products and advance our strategy of becoming one of leading suppliers for optical access network systems", says Tim Jenks, Chairman and CEO of NeoPhotonics.
"They comply with the latest ITU-T G.984.5 specifications to meet the performance and reliability requirements for triple-play access networks".
"Our GPON transceiver line builds on our experience in several segments of the optical access market, leveraging our conventional manufacturing as well as our 'PIC', or photonic integrated circuit, capabilities, which embodies our commitment to innovation and technology leadership in optical components".
