2 FiberGateway Summary The FiberGateway is an Optical Terminal Equipment (ONT) unit for Passive Optical Networks (PON) termination in a FTTH (Fiber-To-The-Home) service delivery architecture. FiberGateway communicates with the OLT (Optical Line Terminal) for the PON side and with the customer’s premises for the client side.
2.2.2 FiberGateway Application Scenario The next figure shows a possible gateway scenario for FiberGateway equipments when in an FTTx architecture. Figure 1: FTTx architecture 2.2.3 Interoperability FiberGateway equipment complies with ITU-T G.984.x. recommendation as like as G.984.4 (OMCI) ensuring multi-vendor OLT interoperability with major GPON OLT vendors, as defined in BBF.247 ONU certification program.
Network Topology OLT/ONT Management (TL1, SNMP) OMCI Figure 2: Link Layer Configuration and Management IP-based services Configuration and management is achieved by means of the TR-069 protocol as defined by Broadband Forum. This procedure takes for granted that previously the link layer connectivity has been achieved.
access protocol (Time Division Multiple Access - TDMA). The OLT queues data to the various ONT terminals in order to provide time slot assignments for upstream communication. In Figure 5 it is shown a scenario for a multi-service user domain basic architecture through an ISP. Figure 5: Optical fiber Internet service user access In the upstream direction, the FiberGateway is connected to the optical splitter and respectively to the OLT through the PON port to provide integrated access services through the service headend.
Figure 6: Stack of protocols for GPON architecture Several transmission containers (T-CONT) are assigned to each user. Each T-CONT has an associated GEM port and each GEM port has a VLAN identifier and an 802.1p priority level. The ONT classifies the traffic depending on the VLAN and the marked priority, and routes it over the corresponding T-CONT/GEM port.
General Architecture The GPON IC Processing unit is the core component inside FiberGateway. It is responsible for the interconnection and processing between client side interfacing and optical GPON Uplink interface. 2.4.1.1 GPON The FiberGateway GPON layer as G.984.x uses 1490nm downstream and 1310nm upstream of the optical wavelengh, with 2,488Gbps downstream and 1,244Gbps upstream by using an SC/APC protected optical connector.
the PON network. FiberGateway equipments have the ability to deliver the Voice service over two types of interface: 2.4.1.4.2 Logical interface (VLAN encapsulation) If the FiberGateway has no FXS ports and the VoIP service is transparently forwarded from the OLT up to the Home Gateway (and vice versa) within a previously defined voice VLAN.

Figure 9: Dowstream QoS diagram In the downstream direction, Figure 9, the ingress traffic can be firstly classified. It passes by a policer and is configured to each ONT service, which is defined by one or two tags. It is remarked and policed per-CoS rate (port profile).
Each of these Traffic Classes has an associated scheduler and policer. Queue management is performed based on Tail Drop or WRED. Then Traffic Classes to P-bit remarking is done and the traffic is sent to the uplink, Figure 11: Traffic distribution by service/client Figure 10: Upstream QoS diagram 2.6.3 Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA)

Tabel 7: Wavelength planning In order to accomplish to that plan, the upstream wavelength for GPON must be restricted to ONU (ONT) equipment based on the ordinary DFB lasers, while the XGPON downstream signal range is defined from 1575 nm to 1580 nm and the XGPON upstream signal from 1260 nm to 1280 nm. For the coexistence of XGPON and GPON over the same fiber, the CO requires a WDM filter that combines the downstream signal (1490 nm, 1555 nm and 1577 nm), isolating the 1310 nm and 1270 nm upstream signal, with the video signal.
