Abstract-Passive optical networks are currently the most promising solution for access networks. Increasing bandwidth requirements and big data applications need a huge bandwidth. Nowadays, gigabit passive optical networks do not seem to be suitable for these purposes. This paper is focused on describing the development, parameters and needs for High Speed Access Networks (such as 100G EPON). The simulations with current wavelengths plans are presented. For simulations we used VPITransmissionMaker TM 9.7. Our goal was to create a rudimentary bidirectional PON system with one ONU and do several simulation scenarios by artificially increasing loss in a splitter for simulating more ONUs. Our following results consist of BER values and eye diagrams for each simulation scenario and proof that 100G EPON networks are most promising networks for the future. We proved that the 100G-EPON networks fully support the basic and currently used split ratios. We also created a two-way communication model and evaluated the obtained data from the bit error-rate and system reach point of view. The entire model was compared with the final version of NG-PON2.
