The PON (Passive Optical Network over wavelengths) Express 16 is the first transport platform
to use a Passive Optical Network (PON) architecture to break the access bottleneck. Using Dense
Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM), the PON Express 16 provides cost-effective access to
business parks, campuses, and multi-dwelling unit/multi-tenant units over a shared network
infrastructure without sacrificing security or limiting bandwidth. Up to 16 customers can be
simultaneously connected with each having up to 1Gbps dedicated, symmetrical bandwidth.
Operationally, each Optical Network Terminal (ONT) is “colorless” which eliminates the sparing
issue that plagues traditional DWDM systems and provides “plug-n-play” system provisioning.
The PON Express 16 is integrated into other ADC products such as the OmniReach
®
FTTX Fiber
Distribution Hub FDH3000S providing a compelling solution unique to the industry.
