Abstract :
Recent advances in the manufacturing and commercialization of passive optical components are now extending the capabilities of fiber to edge and campus networks. This paper presents a comparison between Passive Optical LAN (POL) and copper-based LAN solution, and demonstrate the benefits of PON such as reduced infrastructure footprint and cost, reduced power requirements, future-proof bandwidth, greener infrastructure, safer, higher security and higher reliability.
