Re: FTTH for cable companies

For cable companies who have the data service as part of the RFoG
wavelengths to provide coax at the CPE, how do they handle
collisions/timing on the upstream side ?

Does the ONT provide TDMA slots for the upstream wavelength to ensure
only one customer transmits RF at a time on the upstream ? Or is it all
handled within the DOCSIS /RFoG side ?
