Abstract
State-of-the-art, prospects and problems of access based on tunable lasers are discussed. Potential advantages over competing approaches (seeded reflective transmitters) include higher bitrate×reach products. Main problem is the lack of availability of low-cost tunables. Here, protection of other tunable-laser markets is required.
