There was momentum in the broadband industry to provide fiber solutions to the FTTP as part of the operator service portfolio. Although visual technologies have long been part of the cable network, the FTTP is the structure of the networks of access to all fibers.
For FTTP, the building can be a subscriber home, a commercial site, a campus environment, a multi -residence unit (MDU) or another site. Over the past two decades, operators have adopted negative visual network technology (PON) for fiber access network applications. POINTOPOON TOPONTONTONTONTONTONTORTOLTORTOPTOPONTONTORTOLORIS
Recently, many operators have begun to publish Pon technologies determined by the unification of international and wireless communications communications (ITU-T). As part of the development of its criteria, ITU-T has released standards for 10 GB Corporation (XGS-Pon).
With the start of the bold operators to spread a multiple Gigabit service, there is an increased stream of enthusiasm and attention to effective publication and management and maintenance of these access networks. Moreover, the speed with which technology moves is great and expensive. It is difficult to keep up with these developments, which require a matrix of experience and decision support.
Based on Bonn’s momentum
Pon is one of the techniques that continue to walk forward. Cablebs has participated in developing Pon standards and specifications for more than a decade, and we continue in this context to help operators reduce barriers to spread and operate FTTP solutions.
The provision of PON and PON management in the broader domain industry requires support for old systems that have been present for decades, for example, the Docsis® operations support system (OSS) or integration with the latest background desk systems. The near-term CABLELABS goals include XGS-PON and 25gs-Pon support, and the application capacity of the next generation PON with the next generation with a special focus on the seller’s neutrality is covered by the ability to operate the operating of the devices.
Cablelabs has created two working groups dedicated to improving the integration of ITu-T Pon technologies in cable networks. Two work groups are joint savings, PON (CPMP), visual processes and maintenance (OOM). These two groups are integrated in their activities. The CPMP group focuses on supporting the rear office and XGS-PON management as well as the interim operation of the optical network units (onus) with optical line stations (OLTS). The Ooom Working Group focuses on basic optical network operations and maintenance.
Obstacles
There are always bodies with technology, whether the price, timing or things are outside the operator’s control, such as the availability of the product. However, when customer workplaces (CPE) equipment is required, there is always a basic benefit for the possibility of overlapping this device with the network in which it connects.
The inter -employment provides a necessary competition, which leads to advantages of pricing, innovation and selection of operators. Olt’s OLT choice is an essential role in providing low cost services with the ability to help enhance innovation.
The interim operation involves many technical and logistical challenges. Treating these obstacles usually includes a mixture of adherence to standards, comprehensive testing and cooperation between sellers to ensure that equipment from various manufacturers can work together smoothly. These obstacles include interconnection:
Unified Technology: Standards are not necessarily the end of everything for successful inter -employment. In the context of XGS-Pon, there is an onu and training interface (OMCI). This omci information is defined in the ITU-T G.988 standard. This is the acceptable way to form and manage the Onu equipment via OLT. OMCI is very comprehensive, and in this way, it is very difficult to provide simple and extendable ways to support the interim operation. Sellers applications: sellers may support ownership features or accessories in their products. Although this can provide improved performance, additional functions and the distinction of sellers, they can also create compromise problems if these features are not globally supported by various sellers equipment. Operating requirements: Each operator varies, and each operator requires a specific application to support their business goals. Although some of the formation parameters, reporting of errors and performance monitoring are common among different applications, there are always differences, and this requires different configurations of network components and CPE. Network configuration, service activation, and management: XGS-PON networks requires management and microscopic management to ensure appropriate operation. The differences in management systems and training methods between sellers can create integration challenges. Test and certificates issue: A comprehensive test is required to ensure that equipment from different sellers works together as expected. Many operators and sellers do not have the infrastructure to support such a test, which becomes an obstacle when choosing equipment suppliers. There is a great impact on the time test to the market. Test and checking requirements is a great cost and effort.
Reducing overlapping obstacles
Cablebs, with the support of sellers and member operators, had a successful formula for developing specifications that have been transferred to CPE. The ability to operate the device is the primary goal when producing interface specifications between the network components. The neutrality of the seller through the inter-operating process of this device is a major intention for operators who publish Xgs-Pon in cable networks.
The development of documents to unify technology with the intention of interim operation is a high -line walking line when working with many operators and equipment manufacturers. To add fuel to the fire, when the criteria are already written, the development of a method for inter -operation may require adjustments to the original formula. By taking advantage of the current G.988 standard, Cablebs develops the specifications of the OpenONCI cable to support the Onu composition in an inter -operating manner within the industry.
While it is always the goal to develop common processes and requirements that encourage the ecosystems of the seller, special parameters are sometimes required to support the seller’s distinction. It is important for sellers to distinguish between their products, providing their teams for innovation. Cablebs work includes the work to support the interconnection of the device with the ability to configure the seller when needed.
Each operator differs, and each operator has a set of its own business goals that translate into the products you buy, the services it provides, and the networks you adopt. When developing specifications to support countless operator’s requirements that extend all over the world, we must always realize ways to support these requirements. During the development of specifications, we work together to determine and absorb the needs of differences throughout the industry.
Although each network is different, for inter -operation, some network configuration and service activation and management should be unified. This can be required anywhere in the network from the rear office to the end of the network with CPE. When creating a program to support the interim operation of this entire ecosystem in play. The coordination effort and the development of a popular set of operations to support the interim operation with the formation of the device, activate the service and manage the key.
In February, we hosted the provision of Docsis® for XGS-Pon Interop · Labs for members of the CPMP working group. Test and certification devices are very important for inter -operation. To help remove cost barriers and reduce time to the market through comprehensive tests, Cablebs provides official events for inter -operation such as this in addition to continuous inter -operating activities. In addition, if necessary, Cablebs will develop a certificate for testing and certifying responsibility for specifications.
Click on adopting XGS-Pon
Although Xgs-Pon is gaining attention with cable operators, the industry is keen to develop procedures and specifications to support the onu on the OLTs. While there are always common obstacles to the inter -operation, they are never enough to stop the interim operation. Since XGS-Pon has been defined and unified by ITU-T, this brings a different obstacle to work.
Cablebs, sellers partners and members usually develop specifications that support inter -operational ability. However, in this case, we must benefit from the current standards of another SDO. It will not be impossible, but it will be a heavy elevator.
