2. Verizon Fios - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verizon_Fios

   Fios TV is one of three services offered by Verizon Fios. Fios TV uses QAM technology to deliver signals to a customer's property using its fiber optic cables. [9] At the home, the optical network terminal turns the signal into a radio frequency signal that can be used on a home's existing coaxial cables, feeding the signal to a set-top box ...

3. Network interface device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_interface_device

   Network interface device. In telecommunications, a network interface device (NID; also known by several other names) is a device that serves as the demarcation point between the carrier's local loop and the customer's premises wiring. Outdoor telephone NIDs also provide the subscriber with access to the station wiring and serve as a convenient ...

4. Passive optical network - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_optical_network

   A fiber optic cable assembly with SC APC connectors, as commonly used to link optical network terminals to passive optical networks. A passive optical network (PON) is a fiber-optic telecommunications network that uses only unpowered devices to carry signals, as opposed to electronic equipment. In practice, PONs are typically used for the last ...

5. Fiber to the x - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_to_the_x

   The optical line terminations "range" the optical network terminals or units in order to provide TDMA time slot assignments for upstream communication. For FTTH and for some forms of FTTB, it is common for the building's existing Ethernet, phone, and cable TV systems to connect directly to the optical network terminal or unit.

6. 10G-PON - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10G-PON

   10G-PON (also known as XG-PON or G.987) is a 2010 computer networking standard for data links, capable of delivering shared Internet access rates up to 10 Gbit/s (gigabits per second) over existing dark fiber. This is the ITU-T 's next-generation standard following on from GPON or gigabit-capable PON. Optical fibre is shared by many subscribers ...

7. Optical transport network - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_transport_network

   An optical transport network (OTN) is a digital wrapper that encapsulates frames of data, to allow multiple data sources to be sent on the same channel. This creates an optical virtual private network for each client signal. ITU-T defines an optical transport network as a set of optical network elements (ONE) connected by optical fiber links ...
