A passive optical network (PON) is a fiber-optic telecommunications network that uses only unpowered devices to carry signals, as opposed to electronic equipment. In practice, PONs are typically used for the last mile between Internet service providers (ISP) and their customers. Instead of running a separate fiber strand to every home or office, a PON shares a single fiber using optical.

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.

A passive optical network (PON) is a fiber-optic telecommunications network that uses only unpowered devices to carry signals, as opposed to electronic equipment. In practice, PONs are typically used for the last mile between Internet service providers (ISP) and their customers. A PON takes advantage of (WDM), using one wavelength for downstream traffic and another for upstream traffic on a (ITU-T, typically OS2).

While both technologies share a similar physical topology, WDM-PON employs passive WDM MUX/DEMUX devices for wavelength management, creating a wavelength-based point-to-point logical connection that ensures user resource isolation. While it follows the FTTx point-to-multipoint topology, there are marked differences between the two technologies: TDM-PON WDM-PON TDM-PON WDM-PON While both technologies. The ONU then converts the optical signals into electrical signals for the end-users to access. Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is a technique used in fiber optic communication that allows multiple data signals to be transmitted simultaneously over a single optical fiber. The passive optical network (PON) is an optical fiber based network architecture, which can provide much higher bandwidth in the access network compared to traditional copper-based networks.
