Projeto de redes PON: um estudo de caso de um provedor no sudoeste baiano

Abstract

Fiber optic-based systems have become one of the best options for offering a quality signal, measured by data transmission capacity and speed, since they are beams of light. However, deploying, managing and documenting these networks that are distributed throughout neighborhoods and even cities requires good network design, extensive technical knowledge and expensive equipment. This work focuses on the need for providers to evolve equipment and standards, considering the high demand for fast and stable connections. The work aims to map and document an existing PON (Passive Optical Network) network, offering an analysis of the implementation in the provision of the service. Based on the case study of a provider that offers a fiber optic signal in the city of Barra do Choça, the work uses qualitative methods and bibliographic research to understand the standards and technologies evolved in the deployment of passive optical networks.
