Questions about an OLT and a router

We’re setting up a small data center for providing FTTH internet services to our subscribers. The costs are the biggest concern at the moment. I have a few technical questions about an OLT and a router.

Is there a difference of the hardware of an OLT and a router?

Can we use a PON SFP and a 10G SFP module along with OLT features on a router? Are we required to buy an OLT as well as a router?

OLT features such as:

  • Ability to specify every ONU to get a different VLAN

  • Ability to specify ONUs to be on the same VLAN

Also would that be possible via ONUs’ MAC address?

  • Ability to specify different bandwidth for every ONU

  • Run DHCP server to assign static IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes to the consumer

  • QoS, dynamic bandwidth limiting for specific ONUs
