Simple WDM-PON architecture to simultaneously provide triple-play services by using one single modulator

Abstract

Simple WDM-PON testbed with centralized-lightwave using single-arm IM to provide 10Gb/s data and 2.5Gb/s digital video downstream and 2.5Gb/s upstream data has been demonstrated. After 20km SSMF, power-penalty for all channels is less than 0.5dB. (C) 2006 Optical Society of America.
