Any Port, Any Service - Zhone zNID-GPON-2402 Configuration Manual

Any port, any service

Zhone supports the concept that any device connected to the zNID 24xx can
access any service, whether that service is high speed Internet (HSIA), IPTV
or Video on Demand (VoD) from any Ethernet port. With up to four Gigabit
Ethernet ports as well as two POTS port there is enough bandwidth to supply
HSIA, IPTV and VoD as well as analog telephone.
With any port, any service there is no need to designate some Ethernet Ports
as "data" ports and others as "video" ports. IPTV streams can be watched
from PCs using media streaming applications, or VoD and Pay per view
content may be viewed. Set top boxes (STBs) can join IPTV streams, access
VoD content or browse the Internet. Game consoles can access online gaming
over the Internet, browse the Internet, watch IPTV streams or access VoD
content.
