XGS-PON will deliver enough bandwidth to satisfy most residential and business use cases for the next ten years. But what about future applications that demand higher capacity connectivity exceeding the speeds XGS-PON is capable of delivering? What is the technology standards roadmap for moving beyond 10Gbit/s on PON architectures, and what factors do we need to consider when introducing 50G PON services?
In this session, Ryan McCowan will demonstrate why 50G PON adoption is set to grow over the next decade. He will examine why major service providers backing 50G PON means it will become the technology of choice for keeping up with data demand. He will also explore use cases that provide reason for operators to upgrade and explain how 50G PON can seamlessly coexist with both GPON and XGS-PON.
