Abstract

This paper introduces some of the previous research topics related to Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) technologies that taking precedence today’s people search for a reliable broadband access owing to the fact that old broadband like DSL and ISDN are struggling to deliver reliable broadband access to users with the presence of new applications that impacts network efficiency, distance reach, scalability energy consumption and competitive data rates per user. The large-scale adoption of Internet of Things (IOT) has ushered the need for reliable broadband connections for swift and easy deployment of IOT devices. These challenges have led many researchers and industries to examine and vigorously study alternative designs based on passive optical network devices to provide scalable, low cost, long distance reach, energy efficient, and high-speed networks. This work proposes a simulation of the Gigabit Passive Optical Network (GPON) standard of the FTTH in order to deliver reliable connection to 64 subscribers, using Optisystem over a distance of 50 km. Optical amplifiers was introduced to extend the reach of GPON beyond the 20km mark in order to achieve a high performance working system.
