Book Description:

This book provides a brief, high-level overview of the technology and applications behind the Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) or Fiber-to-the-Curb (FTTC) family of standards, which has recently attracted considerable amount of interest in the technical community. The goal of this book is to provide readers with knowledge of the key features of Passive Optical Networks (PON); the different types of PON architectures and standards; key issues of PON devices, management, and their implementation; and the leading participants and business opportunities in access networks. It's an indispensable reference for professionals in PON.
