Service Requirement
As a mainstream full-service access technology in the future, the passive optical network (PON)
supports fast deployment and service provisioning. It also helps simplify the access network and
reduce the costs on construction and subsequent maintenance of the access network. Currently,
carriers in China and outside China are using the PON to carry 2G/3G base station services over
their existing FTTx networks that are established for accessing individual/enterprise users. In
this manner, carriers can implement the access of all the services at the access layer in an unified
mode.
l ONUs are connected to 2G or 3G base stations through E1 ports.
l GPON is used for carrying the mobile access network in a unified manner to meet mobile
carriers' requirements for a high bandwidth and high-density coverage of base stations.
l Existing SDH resources are utilized efficiently to implement high-quality transmission of
TDM services.
Application Scenario
As shown in Figure 14-7, the ONU accesses TDM services of the 2G or 3G base station through
the E1 port, and then transmits the service data to the GPON service board on the OLT in the
Native TDM mode. The OLT restores TDM signals, and then transmits the signals to the SDH
network through the E1 port (provided by the NH1A daughter board) or STM-1 port (provided
by the O2CE daughter board) on the TOPA board. In this manner, service access of the 2G or
3G base station is implemented between the ONU and the OLT in the Native TDM mode.
Applicable ONUs: MA5612, MA5628, MA5616
