Ghn + GPON combination
for Home Internet Broadband Access
Introduction
With the proliferation of smart homes, high-definition video, cloud computing, and IoT devices, the demand for high-speed and stable internet connections in households is growing rapidly. Traditional solutions like DSL and Fiber to the Home (FTTH) face challenges in terms of cost, installation complexity, and actual transmission performance. To address these challenges, Xingtera has introduced an innovative solution that combines G.hn and GPON technologies, aiming to provide efficient and reliable broadband access for homes.

Introduction to Xingtera G.hn and GPON Technologies

G.hn Technology: A home networking standard developed by ITU-T, utilizing existing power lines, coaxial cables, and telephone lines to provide gigabit-level home network connections. The main advantages include:
  • High Speed: Supports physical layer speeds up to 2Gbps.
  • Wide Coverage: Can cover the entire home using existing wiring.
  • Low Latency: Suitable for real-time applications like high-definition video and online gaming.
GPON Technology: Gigabit Passive Optical Network technology transmits data via optical fiber, supporting higher bandwidth and longer transmission distances. The main advantages include:
  • High Bandwidth: Supports up to 2.5Gbps downstream and 1.25Gbps upstream.
  • Efficient Utilization: Achieves cost-effective deployment by sharing a single fiber channel among multiple users through passive splitters.
  • High Reliability: Optical fiber networks have low attenuation and long service life.

Solution Design and Implementation

Combined Advantages: Combining G.hn and GPON technologies leverages the high bandwidth of optical fiber and the flexible deployment of G.hn to create an efficient home broadband access solution.
  • Design Concept: Transmit bandwidth to each household via optical fiber, and then distribute the network within the home using G.hn technology, utilizing existing wiring to cover the room.
  • Hardware Equipment:
    • G.hn+ONU Master Device: Serves as the master equipment for the home or building, connecting to the optical network and distributing the network signal within the home using G.hn technology. It can function as the master equipment for both FTTH and FTTB.
    • G.hn Slave Device: Installed in various rooms of the home, receiving the network signal through existing wiring and providing high-speed, stable network connections.

Case Study

Deployment Scenario: In a large-scale deployment by a telecom operator in a European country, each household installed a G.hn+ONU integrated device as the main network equipment, distributing the network signal through existing wiring. G.hn slave devices were installed in the room to ensure high-speed and stable network connectivity throughout the home.
Performance Testing: The network performance test results after deployment showed excellent bandwidth, latency, and stability in different rooms and locations. The test results demonstrated the outstanding performance of G.hn technology within the home, providing a seamless high-speed network experience.
User Experience: User feedback indicated significant improvements in network speed, stability, and ease of use after the solution was implemented. Users from the European telecom operator widely praised the solution, stating that it delivered remarkable results in practical applications and provided an excellent user experience.

Conclusion and Outlook

Solution Advantages Summary: The Xingtera G.hn+GPON combined solution offers significant advantages in terms of cost, performance, and deployment convenience.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: Reduces installation costs and time by utilizing existing wiring.
  • Performance Enhancement: Provides high-speed and stable network connections to meet the needs of modern households.
Future Development: This solution holds great potential for broader application scenarios, such as smart cities and enterprise networks.
