Why on earth would you do this with PON instead of active Ethernet? What GPON vendor have you found where their technical staff will tell you this is a good architecture for their PON offering?
Asked and answered, Scott; have you been ignoring the threads all week? I'm pretty sure I even answered it in the posting, but just in case: 1) Line cards for the OLT frames appear to be 2 orders of magnitude denser for GPON termination than AE (480 ports per 10U vs 10k ports per 10U in Calix, unless I've badly misunderstood my sources), and 2) GPON is what potential L3 providers large enough to want an optical handoff are generally used to. If someone wants AE, they can certainly have it. (C'mon; miss the *next* turn, too :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
