All,
Im relatively new to GPON and am tasked with helping a service provider find hardware solutions. At their headend today they run Zyxel switches that they want to replace. Sounds like they've landed on Ruckus switches for the Head End.
So first my dumb question: Would the Ruckus Switches be considered the OLT? They will be a stack of switches with layer 3 capabilities. Or is the OLT after the Main network switches facing the customer ONT?
If I still need OLT does anyone have any recommendations on hardware that's worked well for you?
Since Im new to GPON Im not terribly familiar with the vendors outside Cisco that do this. Looking for recommendations on ONT's and Fiber splitters too. Most sites will be around 10 miles away from the CO, and in some cases up to 20miles. Hoping to start with GPON with upgrade options to 10Gig later on. Any guidance would be appreciated.
