Description
Summary:Typically, an optical line terminal (OLT) placed within the wire center, or central office, serves as the launch point for an FTTP network. The transmission proceeds downstream via feeder cables to fiber distribution hub (FDH) cabinets, where optical splitting occurs for a passive optical network (PON). From the optical splitter output, the signal carries on to the subscriber premises via distribution cables, fiber service terminals, and drop cables.
