WHITE PAPER

The evolution of the optical line terminal

Passive optical networks (PONs) have revolutionized the telecommunications industry by providing high-speed broadband access to end-users. At the heart of PONs lies the optical line terminal (OLT), which serves as a gateway between the optical distribution network and the service provider’s network.
