“…One way to accomplish this while producing a plant that is more robust against noise ingress is to push the fiber closer to the customer in either an FTTC or an FTTH arrangement. 31,32 These networks can provide a full set of services (analog CATV, videoon-demand, high speed Internet access via cable modem, and telephony) in a single easy-to-maintain network with good upgradability.…”

“…Also, it is expected that the boundaries between metropolitan and access networks will blur as network providers attempt to consolidate and reduce the large number of central offices using the aforementioned advances. Long reach PONs were first preceded by high split ratio PONs [1] which were typically all passive for the short transmission distances. Early references to long-reach PONs or "super-PONs" ranged over a variety of topologies [2,3], however, most required active amplification in the fiber plant.…”

With the explosion of capacity demands driven by the Internet, optical networking systems are experiencing tremendous growth and are providing increasingly high transmission capacities. As importantly, with the advent of the optical amplifier and wavelength‐division multiplexing (WDM), optics is playing a larger role in networking and is extending further to the edge of the network. Once limited to long‐haul point‐to‐point systems, the industry is now commercializing multipoint metro WDM ring systems that include software‐controlled optical wavelength add/drop multiplexers and will soon be capable of offering large optical cross connects. These optical network elements, together with network‐management software, will enable rapid provisioning of wavelength services, as well as rapid network restoration. In addition, as the cost of optics is driven down and the demand for bandwidth to businesses and residential customers continues to grow, optical systems are extending out from the network core and metro to access applications. The confluence of a proliferation of broadband service applications and rapidly maturing optical technology are literally driving optical systems into all segments. Increasingly, optics is literally everywhere.
