ONT Product Information Guide
The CES IWF packetizes DS1 or E1 traffic received at the RJ-48C port before it is 
multiplexed with other Ethernet Layer 2 data packets for transport upstream on the 
GPON. MEF-8 is the packet payload format used. The packetization is removed 
before downstream DS1 or E1 traffic from the GPON is sent to the DS1 or E1 lines 
at the subscriber side. 
Clocking, network synchronization, and time calibration for CES
All business ONTs can use one of two clocking sources for CES: a derived GPON 
clock or a local oscillator. When the system clock for CES is derived from the 
GPON, the upstream P-OLT locks to the BIT clock and supplies the ONT with an 
Ethernet clock that is traceable to a network timing reference. The supplied Ethernet 
clock is used for differential clock recovery and for timing the upstream pseudo-wire 
MEF-8 packet streams in the absence of a valid TDM recovery clock. The local 
oscillator is only used if adaptive mode is selected.
The downstream TDM streams may be timed from one of two clocking sources: an 
adaptive clock received from the MEF-8 packet stream, or a differential clock 
recovered from the MEF-8 packet stream.
The business ONT calibrates its time of day from a series of network time protocol 
(NTP) servers. The ONT communicates with the NTP servers using the NTP 
protocol and authenticate NTP servers with a provisionable security key. During a 
loss of service (LOS) state on the GPON interface, a minimum 32 ppm clock is 
maintained.

B-8102-A and B-8112-A ONT software considerations and limitations
Table 11-11 lists the considerations and limitations for the B-8102-A and B-8112-A 
business ONT.
Table 11-11 B-8102-A and B-8112-A business ONT considerations and limitations
Considerations and limitations
Do not submerge business ONTs. The ONT cannot withstand water submersion caused by flooding. 
Equipment damage will occur
The B-0404-A E1 interface supports standard 120 Ω termination via an RJ-48C. Customers that 
require a 75 Ω termination need an external adapter
FEC is not supported
Line loopbacks are not supported
The ONT does not support VLAN translation and VLAN pass-through traffic that uses the same p-bit 
across the same UNI or downstream p-bit translation when services are configured in VLAN 
pass-through mode
The ONT cannot forward CCM packets to the edge router
The ONT does not support RIPv2 or SAPv1 packets on an unicast VLAN that is not the multicast GEM 
port
The ONT cannot perform subscriber join IGMP CAC check when LT-to-ONT signalling is disabled
