PON and Active Ethernet FTTH Deployments

BPON, EPON, GEPON/GPON, Active Ethernet, and the Role of IP Video



The demand for bandwidth continues to grow as IP video, VoIP, gaming, and other bandwidth-intensive services gain traction with residential consumers. FTTH – particularly GPON and active Ethernet – provide access pipes to the home that will ideally support emerging robust triple-play services.

This ABI Research study explores the trends driving FTTH adoption, regional deployment patterns, the value of the FTTH market, and the cost structure of FTTH. It includes analysis of subscriber growth for BPON, EPON, GPON (GEPON), and active Ethernet. The report also examines OLT blade and ONT deployments and the revenue they generate. Contracts and vendor-operator relationships are discussed, and market share for FTTH is provided. Finally, the research provides an analysis of how various cost inputs – electronics/equipment, fiber, and labor – derive the cost structure for FTTH deployment.
