PON Express
λ
Universal Transport Platform for Access Networks
The PON (Passive Optical Network over wavelengths) Express 16 is the first transport platform
λ
to use a Passive Optical Network (PON) architecture to break the access bottleneck. Using Dense
Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM), the PON
business parks, campuses, and multi-dwelling unit/multi-tenant units over a shared network
infrastructure without sacrificing security or limiting bandwidth. Up to 16 customers can be
simultaneously connected with each having up to 1Gbps dedicated, symmetrical bandwidth.
Operationally, each Optical Network Terminal (ONT) is "colorless" which eliminates the sparing
issue that plagues traditional DWDM systems and provides "plug-n-play" system provisioning.
The PON Express 16 is integrated into other ADC products such as the OmniReach
λ
Distribution Hub FDH3000S providing a compelling solution unique to the industry.
Features:
• Supports point-to-point and point-to-
multipoint architectures
• Delivers up to 1Gbps of dedicated,
symmetrical bandwidth per suscriber
• Uses a single fiber for up and downstream
traffic
• Provides "colorless" optics on the ONTs/
ONUs as well as the OLT line cards
• Supports SNMP and TL1 for management
• Provides multiple deployment options to fit
every environment:
- Strand mount or underground option
- Rack mount option
- Modular option for existing splitter
cabinet
• Uses modular architecture for simple and
quick service and bit rate upgrades
• Allows complete or partial redundancy
through the network

Benefits:
• Enables multiple services and bit rates to
exist simultaneously without complex traffic
management
• Allows for service and bit rate upgrades
without infrastructure changes
• Reduces inventory costs by using "colorless"
ONTs/ONUs and OLT line cards (OCUs)
• Recovers fiber assets in older deployments
and reduces fiber count for new
deployments
• Supports transparent SLAs
• Plug-n-play simplicity reduces time to
market and eliminates wavelength
management issues
• Allows 1310nm overlay using ADC's DWDM
VAM module to support legacy networks
• Provides more security and privacy due to
dedicated wavelengths
