What is the development of EPON technology
In November 2000, the IEEE established the 802.3EFM (Ethernet in the First Mile) research group. 21 network equipment manufacturers in the industry initiated the establishment of EFMA to implement Gb / s Ethernet point-to-multipoint optical transmission solutions. GEPON (GigabitEthernet PON). EFM standard IEEE802.3ah;
EPON is an emerging broadband access technology. It realizes the integrated service access of data, voice and video through a single optical fiber access system, and has good economy. The industry generally believes that FTTH is the ultimate solution for broadband access, and EPON will also become a mainstream broadband access technology. Due to the characteristics of the EPON network structure, the special advantages of broadband homes, and the natural organic integration with computer networks, experts around the world have agreed that passive optical networks are a "three-network integration" and an information highway. The best transmission medium for the "last mile"
