ONU activation
The activation procedure is performed by the exchange of upstream and downstream 
flags and Physical Layer Operations Administration and Maintenance (PLOAM) 
standard messages defined for GPON, as follows:
1 The ONT receives the requested GPON operating parameters from the OLT.
2 The ONT adjusts it parameters accordingly.
3 The OLT system discovers the serial number of a new connected ONT.
4 The OLT system assigns an ID to the ONT.
5 The OLT system measures the round-trip delay of the ONT transmission.
6 The OLT system notifies the ONT of the equalization delay.
7 The ONT adjusts the transmission phase to the notified value.
In the normal operating state, all the transmissions can be used for monitoring the 
phase of the arriving transmission. Based on the monitoring transmission phase 
information, the equalization delay can be updated.
3.12 ONT optical budget
This section provides the optical budget for all of the ONTs. Observe the safety 
requirements with ONTs, which are Class 1 laser products. Figure 3-5 shows the 
Class 1 laser product warning label attached to the ONT.

Warning —  Operating equipment outside of its tested and 
documented performance characteristics and causing an optical 
overload may cause damage to equipment components, such as APD 
receivers.
This can affect service delivery, and void any component or system 
warranties.
