Abstract

PON (Passive Optical Network) permits the economical deployment of FTTH (Fiber to the Home) networks by sharing a single optical subscriber line among multiple subscribers. Especially since 2002, the deployment of PON systems has grown rapidly. This paper introduces the current status of FTTH in Japan then proposes a redundant optical access system with APS (Automatic Protection Switching) over PON which enables PONs for FTTBus (Fiber to the Business).
