NG-EPON Objectives August 20, 2015 14 July 2015

Objectives Support subscriber access networks using point to multipoint topologies on optical fiber Provide specifications for physical layers operating over a single SMF strand and supporting the MAC data rate of: At least 25 Gb/s in downstream and at least 25 Gb/s in upstream At least 25 Gb/s in downstream and at least 10 Gb/s in upstream At least 40 Gb/s in downstream and at least 40 Gb/s in upstream Define an extensible architecture that will support future MAC data rates of at least 100 Gb/s 14 July 2015

Objectives PHY(s) to have a BER better than or equal to 10-12 at the MAC/PLS service interface (or the frame loss ratio equivalent) Support coexistence with 10G-EPON Power budgets equivalent to 10G-EPON power budgets defined in IEEE Std 802.3-2015 Wavelength allocation allowing concurrent operation with 10G-EPON PHYs 14 July 2015
