FTTx market trends through analysis of optical components
This presentation, originally given at FOE 2010 in Tokyo, Japan, January 22, 2010, discusses how optical component vendors need to embrace the FTTx market as performance, price, and volume requirements impact legacy and emerging components.
Embrace the FTTx market
FTTx subscribers projected to grow relative to other broadband technologies
Volumes and cost; FTTx impacting core; an example through PLC splitters and AWGs
FTTx requires higher performance at lower cost compared to datacom transceivers
FTTx everywhere
Metro and core components and technologies are being repurposed and reused in access
FTTx in wireless backhaul, cable networks, enterprises
