What does Passive Optical Networking PON technology mean
For TDM-PON, a passive optical splitter is used in the optical distribution network. In the upstream direction, each ONU (optical network units) or ONT (optical network terminal) burst transmits for an assigned time-slot (multiplexed in the time domain). Passive Optical Network (PON) is a point-to-multipoint optical access technology. Passive, in this context, refers to the unpowered condition of the fiber and splitting/combining.
