DenseLight Offers G.984 compliant GPON-ONU Transceiver

DenseLight Semiconductors released new GPON transceivers for the ONU side in Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON). The new ITU-T G.984 compliant GPON transceiver is capable of achieving 2.5Gbps downstream & 1.25Gbps (burst mode) upstream transmissions. It is designed to operate at the Optical Network Unit (ONU) side, supporting FTTB/C/Cab (fiber to the building/curb/cabinet) network configurations.



DenseLight said it provides a complete implementation of the G.984 physical media dependent (PMD) specifications in the transceiver. For instance, the G.984 defined power-leveling function has been implemented to enable a reliable burst mode operation between the ONU and the Optical Line Terminal (OLT) side operating in a Class B optical distribution network (ODN) environment. http://www.denselight.com
