    An SC APC fiber optic cable commonly used to link ONTs to the PON network. A passive optical network ( PON) is a fiber-optic telecommunications technology for delivering broadband network access to end-customers. Its architecture implements a point-to-multipoint topology in which a single optical fiber serves multiple endpoints by using ...

  7. Optical fiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_fiber

    An optical fiber, or optical fibre, is a flexible glass or plastic fiber that can transmit light [a] from one end to the other. Such fibers find wide usage in fiber-optic communications, where they permit transmission over longer distances and at higher bandwidths (data transfer rates) than electrical cables.
