Instead, you can be confident\u00a0 that &#8216;PON&#8217; will deliver every day, all day.<\/p>\n<p>Here is an example:<\/p>\n<p>Compared to the traditional copper-based networking solution, Optical LAN&#8217;s endpoints within each condo offer<strong><em> four<\/em><\/strong> times more capacity.<\/p>\n<p>And the superior bandwidth and density of optical fiber translates into maximum scalability\u00a0 for the Park Place Optical LAN. Individual residents now receive incredibly fast Internet, which is burstable to up to one Gigabit per second (Gbps).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5>\u00a0 Unlimited bandwidth is just one of the many benefits of PON technology.<\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PON is also simpler and easier to deploy throughout a building such as Park Place. It converges separate service-specific networks, such as voice, data, video and wireless, into a streamlined, single fiber architecture. The result is less equipment and cabling compared to copper.<\/p>\n<p>Less equipment translates to significantly less cost. Less cost is always attractive but less cost coupled with convenience should make your short list.<\/p>\n<p>PON also centralizes all management functions for the entire network, which enables technicians to configure and reconfigure connectivity and services for individual users much faster and more easily than they could with multiple traditional networks.<\/p>\n<p>So go ahead, <a href=\"mailto:agibson@abrahamsconsulting.com\">roll the dice<\/a>;\u00a0 I am certain that you will win every time with PON.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/yhoo.it\/1FnGl3S\">Tellabs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you think about passivity, the Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) should not come to mind. &#8216;PON&#8217;, its nickname, is experiencing exponential growth and is on target to reach 33.3 billion by 2020.
