UISP Fiber
Coexistence of XGS-PON and GPON
The UISP Fiber OLT XGS supports both the XG/XGS ONUs as
well as the GPON ONUs.
- XG/XGS ONUs. These connect to the XG/XGS optical transceiver (UACC-UF-OM-XGS).
- GPON ONUs. These connect to the GPON optical transceivers (UF-GP-B+ and UF-GP-C+).
WDM Filter with Single Fiber Cable
Due to the different wavelengths used by GPON and XG/XGS PON, it is necessary to use a WDM filter (UACC-UF-WDM-XGS) when connecting GPON and XG/XGS ONUs via a single fiber cable.
In this diagram, the XG/XGS and GPON transceivers are both used on the XGS OLT and connect to the WDM filter on the GPON and XG /XGS PON ports. The WDM filter then connects to the and one or more splitters.
In this diagram,GPON OLT is kept in place
and both OLTs connect to the WDM filter on the GPON and XG/XGS PON ports. the WDM filter then connects to the XG/XGS and GPON ONUs via the COM ports and one or more splitters.
No WDM Filter with Multiple Fiber Cables
This setup doesn't use a WDM filter and instead connects the XG/XGS and GPON ONUs to different optical transceivers using multiple fiber cables.
In this diagram, the XG/XGS and GPON transceivers are both used on the XGS OLT and directly connect to the XG/XGS and GPON ONUs via one or more splitters.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use GPON and XG/XGS optical transceivers on the same XGS OLT?
Yes. The PON ports support XG/XGS and GPON transceivers and it is possible to combine them.
Can XG/XGS ONUs be connected to a GPON optical transceiver?
No, this is not possible.
Can GPON ONUs be connected to the XG/XGS optical transceiver?
No, this is not possible.
Can I use a XG/XGS/GPON combo optical transceiver on the XGS OLT or GPON OLTs?
No, this is not possible.
Can I use a XG/XGS transceiver on the GPON OLTs?
No, this is not possible.
Can I use any port on the WDM filter for GPON or XG/XGS PON?
No, the 24 ports on the WDM filter are dedicated for a specific purpose. The ports are:
- (8) COM - Connect to the GPON and XG/XGS ONUs via one or more splitters.
- (8) GPON - Connect to the GPON optical transceivers (UF-GP-B+ and UF-GP-C+) on either the GPON or XGS OLT.
- (8) XG/XGS PON - Connect to the XG/XGS optical transceiver (UACC-UF-OM-XGS) on the XGS OLT.
What connector type is used on the WDM filter?
The connector type for the COM, GPON and XG/XGS ports is SC/UPC.
