  • Comparison of Performance and Power Consumption of Optical Protection Switches with Remote Monitoring Type

    Comparison of Performance and Power Consumption of Optical Protection Switches with Remote Monitoring Type

    The most important energy management and power-saving methods for Optical Line Terminals (OLTs) and Optical Network Units (ONUs), as key OAN components, are overviewed in the paper. With the growing global deployment of Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks driven by the demand for ensuring high-capacity broadband services, mobile network operators (MNOs) face challenges of excessive energy consumption (EC) of wired optical access networks (OANs). This paper presents a. n for a wide range of protection switching applications. The PSS can protect up to 16 transmission RX/TX l ne pairs in a compact 1RU space and uses less than 25 Watts. It can operate as a standalone protection switch or it can be controlled and monitored by a hi her level network management system. OLP (Optical Line Protection) is a device used in pairs, one at each end of the optical signal to protect the network transmission line. Designed for maximum configuration flexibility, this module can plug directly into the FMT managed chassis, each module occupying one slot.

    • Measuring the absolute power in a fiber optic signal. For this application, the power meter needs to be properly calibrated at the wavelength being tested, and set to this wavelength.• Measuring the optical loss in a fiber, in combination with a suitable stable light source. Since this is a relative test, accurate calibration is not a particular requirement, unless two or more meters are being used due to distance issues. If a more complex two-way loss test is performed, then power meter calibration can be ignored.
