There is only one optical
port at the Central Office (instead of multiple
ports)
Passive components require
little maintenance and have a high MTBF
Additional buildings can
be added to the network easily and inexpensively
Supports a broad range of
applications including triple play (voice,
data, video) over a single fiber and FTTB,
FTTC, FTTM, FTTH
Offers a large amount of
high speed bandwidth providing greater flexibility
for adding future services

GPON Advantages
The
Benefits of our Optimate GPON solution include:
Triple Play:
FlexLight’s Optimate solution transports Voice,
Data and Video services
over a single fiber in their native format. A variety
of Ethernet services
such as QoS, VLAN, pVLAN, IGMP and RSTP are supported.
Highest
Bit Rates & Efficiency: FlexLight supports
the highest bit rate PON available in the industry today,
with an unprecedented 2.488/1.244
Gbps in the downstream/upstream. This allows a service
provider to sell larger amounts of bandwidth to their
customers while also supporting more ‘revenue bits’
per capital investment in optical plant.
Advanced
Networking Capabilities: FlexLight supports long
reach networks allowing 32
ONTs to be located as far as 37
Km from the Central Office. Optimate can utilize
a CWDM wavelength plan,
in order to transport up to 8 wavelengths on the same
PON.
Availability:
FlexLight supports sub-50ms
protection switching and traffic restoration in case of
fiber failure, STM1/GbE facility failure, as well as PON
I/F card failure.
Cost savings:
FlexLight can provide a significant CAPEX
and OPEX savings vs. the deployment of SDH/SONET
and other PON technologies in the access loops.
