2.14.3 Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA)
The DBA (Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation) is available in order to optimize the upstream bandwidth. This mechanism consists in dening an ad-
equate T-CONT to the service trac in question. There are ve types of T-CONT, dened by the Fixed, Assured and Maximum Parameters:
Type 1: Only xed Bandwidth;
Type 2: Only Assured Bandwidth;
Type 3: Assured+Maximum Bandwidth;
Type 4: Only Maximum Bandwidth (Best Eort);
Type 5: Fixed+Assured+Maximum Band

Table 2-1: T-CONT types denition
In each GPON interface there are 1024 Alloc-ID (T-CONT identiers) available, provided to manage ONT services. They are distributed in the fol-
lowing way:
Alloc-ID Allocation Type
0-127 Default Alloc-ID (Dynamic or Static)
128-255 Reserved
256-639 Dynamic or Static
640-1023 Static
