Description:

The advent of video-on-demand and interactive gaming has prompted the deployment of broadband infrastructures. Because of its large bandwidth, Passive Optical Networks (PONs) are seen as the technology to make this happen. However, there are numerous standards and technologies - EPON, BPON, GPON, APON, WDM-PON, TDM-PON - which network providers and device manufacturers need to know of and understand when developing their products. There are no books focused specifically on the technology of PONs. This book will be the definitive reference on PON technology and their application in the future development of broadband devices and systems. A reference of this nature is ideal for professional…
