  • Abstract
    The study about a cost effective topology based on the single wavelength bi-directional multiplex is conducted. In this study the Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) from point of view of payback period is analyzed, and a cost-effective novel FTTH (Fiber to the Home) scheme based on the single wavelength bidirectional multiplex is proposed. By using the proposed schema it is possible to reduce initial CAPEX and at the same time to reduce a payback period for new FTTH networks. The proposed schema allows achieving an increase in capacity of 50% in existing FTTH P2P (Point to Point) network.
