This course covers optical communication and networking technologies in the access network segment, focusing on passive optical networks (PONs).
To provide the general context the course reviews the evolution of fixed access networks from the first deployment of PONs to the recent standardization of 25GS-PON and 50G-PON.
The PON system architectures, physical layer, such as burst mode transmission, and network layer are analyzed in detail.
The course focuses on the PON topology, PON architecture, types of PON networks, Time-Division Multiplexing PON (TDM-PON) technologies, PON components, such as optical fibers and cables, transceivers and splitters, as well as PON deployment considerations explaining the different considerations that must be taken into account when planning, design, maintain and troubleshoot a PON.
