GPON - Calculation
Assume 1:32 split ratio
To achieve 100 Mbps per customer, only 25 customer are
connected per PON
For 1 PON download speed 2.5 Gbps = 2500 Mbps
For 1 Customer download speed = 2500 Mbps / 25 = 100
Mbps

For residential customer 100 Mbps is the
maximum available bandwidth.
For commercial customer the requirement
granularity cannot be decided during the
survey stage as every commercial
customer will have specific requirement.
To have clear understanding and to serve
1:X GPON and UnSPlit GPON, we have to
understand the customer requirement in
IT, telecom, application and capacity level.
To plan and address the general
requirement, we have to assume every
individual customer is connected or ready
to connect via patch cord installation
during provisioning.

For the expansion in the

Number of living units (individual customer)
who will be identified with single invoice for all
telecom service from the service provider
point of view has to be confirmed.
The classification of the above data as shown
in table under “Number of living units:” and the
business model with marketing strategy has to
confirm the FACTOR for various commercial
and split ratio requirement.
The fiber has to land in each living units
(individual customer) and the flexibility to
connected in different configuration as shown
in the illustration.
The number of fiber required to enter a MTR
can be calculated with cable count planning
equation.
