Cisco XGS-PON OLT SFP+ module

The Cisco XGS-PON (10Gbps symmetrical PON) OLT SFP+ module is a feature-rich OLT device contained in a hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor. It contains a built-in 10G Ethernet-to-XGS-PON OLT MAC Bridge IC and optical transceiver. It offers a maximum split ratio of 1:128. This is an ODN Class N2 transceiver.

Converge your IP and optical networks onto a single layer with the XGS-PON small form-factor pluggable (SFP).

Cisco^® 10G Routed PON modules enable the Cisco Routed PON Solution. Cisco 10G Routed PON simplifies the network with pluggable form factor Optical Line Terminals (OLTs) and a software controller on Cisco NCS 540, NCS5500, and NCS 5700 that converges ethernet and PON services. The Cisco Routed PON Solution replaces dedicated PON chassis with a multiservice router, increasing flexibility and reducing network footprint and power consumption.

The Cisco Routed PON Manager is the management solution for PON Networks. The Routed PON architecture is shown in Figure 1 and consists of the Routed PON Manager graphical user interface, Routed PON Netconf Server, and Routed PON Controller. Together these components provide a complete network management solution for provisioning and monitoring Cisco Routed PON OLT devices, as well as the subtended ONUs compliant with the XGS-PON and 10G-EPON standards.

Routed PON Manager

The Routed PON Manager is a single-page web application (Web App) and an accompanying REST API that provides a graphical user interface for managing the PON Network. The Web App is built on the Angular web application framework, which provides an HTML and JavaScript © 2024 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. 14 front-end user interface. The REST API accompanies the Web App for the purposes of providing access to MongoDB for managing Routed PON Manager users and the PON Network.

The Routed PON Manager has the following features:

Alarm management
Dashboard view with a summary of PON network conditions
Device monitoring and statistics
Device provisioning and management
Service configuration, including VLANs, Service Level Agreements (SLAs), 802.1X Authentication, DHCP Relay, and PPPoE
Logging for diagnostics and troubleshooting
Polyglot graphical OMCI (and future 10G EPON OAM) service configuration tool
Routed PON Controller database management
Routed PON Manager user management.
