Passive Optical Networking Yes !! You heard it right !! Passive Optical Networking is the future for IT Infrastructure for all the Hotels , Malls , Schools , Internetwork Connectivities for societies . Abstract—Traffic patterns in access networks have evolved from voice- and text-oriented services to video- and image-based services.This change will require new access networks that support high-speed (> 100 Mb/s), symmetric, and guaranteed bandwidths for future video services with high-definition TV quality. To satisfy the required bandwidth over a 20-km transmission distance, single-mode optical fiber is currently the only practical choice. To minimize the cost of implementing an FTTP solution, a passive optical network (PON) that uses a point-to-multipoint architecture is generally considered to be the best approach. PASSIVE OPTICAL NETWORK A passive optical network ( PON ) is a fiber-optic telecommunications technology for delivering broadband network access to end-custo
