Optical Networks• Passive Optical Network (PON)– Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH)– Fiber-to-the-curb (FTTC)– Fiber-to-the-premise (FTTP)
• Metro Networks (SONET)– Metro access networks– Metro core networks
• Transport Networks (DWDM)– Long-haul networks

All-Optical Networks• Most optical networks today are EOE
(electrical/optical/electrical)• All optical means no electrical component
– To transport and switch packets photonically.
• Transport: no problem, been doing that for years• Label Switch
– Use wavelength to establish an on-demand end-to-end path
• Photonic switching: many patents, but how many products?

Optical 101• Wavelength (): length of a wave and is measured in
nanometers, 10-9m (nm) – 400nm (violet) to 700nm (red) is visible light– Fiber optics primarily use 850, 1310, & 1550nm
• Frequency (f): measured in TeraHertz, 1012 (THz)• Speed of light = 3×108 m/sec

three sections:– The core carries the
light signals– The cladding keeps the light
in the core– The coating protects the glass

• Single-mode fiber– Carries light pulses by
laser along single path

generated by LED travel at different angles

Fiber Installation
Support cable every 3 feet for indoor cable (5 feet for outdoor)
Don’t squeeze support straps too tight.
Pull cables by hand, no jerking, even hand pressure.
Avoid splices.
Make sure the fiber is dark when working with it.
Broken pieces of fiber VERY DANGEROUS!! Do not ingest!

Passive Optical Network (PON)• Standard: ITU-T G.983• PON is used primarily in two markets: residential and
business for very high speed network access.• Passive: no electricity to power or maintain the
transmission facility.– PON is very active in sending and receiving optical signals
• The active parts are at both end points.– Splitter could be used, but is passive

PON – many flavors• ATM-based PON (APON) – The first Passive optical network
standard, primarily for business applications• Broadband PON (BPON) – the original PON standard (1995). It
used ATM as the bearer protocol, and operated at 155Mbps. It was later enhanced to 622Mbps.– ITU-T G.983
• Ethernet PON (EPON) – standard from IEEE Ethernet for the First Mile (EFM) group. It focuses on standardizing a 1.25 Gb/s symmetrical system for Ethernet transport only – IEEE 802.3ah (1.25G)– IEEE 802.3av (10G EPON)
• Gigabit PON (GPON) – offer high bit rate while enabling transport of multiple services, specifically data (IP/Ethernet) and voice (TDM) in their native formats, at an extremely high efficiency – ITU-T G.984

PPP over SONET• RFC 1619 (1994)• The basic rate for PPP over SONET is STS-3c at
155.520 Mbps.• The available information bandwidth is
149.760 Mbps, which is the STS-3c envelope with section, line and path overhead removed.
• Lower signal rates use the Virtual Tributary (VT) mechanism of SONET.

TDM vs. WDM• TDM (SONET/SDH)
–Take sync and async signals and multiplex them to a single higher optical bit rate–E/O or O/E/O conversion
• WDM–Take multiple optical signals and multiplex themonto a single fiber–No signal format conversion

FDM vs. WDM vs. DWDM• Is WDM also a Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) which has been
widely available for many years?• Short Answer: Yes. There is no difference between Wavelength Division
and Frequency Division. In general, FDM is used in the context of Radio Frequency (MHz – GHz) while WDM is used in the context of light ( THz)
• WDM: The original standard requires 100 GHz spacing to prevent signals interference.
• Dense WDM (DWDM): support multiplexing of up to 160 wavelengths of 10G/wavelength with 25GHz spacing– The use of sub 100GHz for spacing is called Dense WDM.– Some vendors even propose to use 12.5GHz spacing, and it would multiplex
up to 320 wavelengths

Optical ADM (OADM)• OADM is similar in many respects to SONET ADM, except that
only optical wavelengths are added and dropped, and there is no conversion of the signal from optical to electrical.

Q: there is no framing of DWDM, so how do we add/drop/pass light?A: λ It is based on λ and λ only.

Note: There is no protocol called “IP over DWDM” or “PPP over DWDM”. However, there are many publications on “IP over DWDM” and they all require a layer-2 protocol which provides the framing to encapsulate IP packets. (see the previous slide)

Summary• Optical Fiber Network – the market needs• Access Network
– Passive Optical Network (PON)• Metro Network
– SONET/SDH• Transport Network (Long-Haul)
– DWDM• DWDM can be applied to metro and access networks as well, but unlikely for its high cost.
• Optical network is a layer-1 technology, and IP is a layer-3 protocol. There must be a layer-2 protocol to encapsulate IP packets to layer-2 framing before it goes to the optical layer– ATM (via RFC2684)– SONET (via PPP)– Ethernet (via GFP)
