I disagree. Loss is loss, regardless of where the splitter is placed in the equation. Distance x loss + splitter insertion loss = total loss for purposes of link budget calculation. The reason to push splitters towards the customer end is financial, not technical. On Fri, Feb 1, 2013 at 2:29

Actually, this is an issue… I should have seen it. You have 3 loss components… Power out = (Power in - loss to splitter - splitter loss) / nOut - loss-to-customer So, if the loss to the splitter is 3db and you have 20db (effective 320db on a 16x split) loss on each customer link, that's a

It's still a 23dB loss for each customer from the CO to the ONT. I have an OLT that launches at +5dBm. At 1490nm, I should see about a .26dB loss per km. My 1x32 splitter is going to add about 16dB more loss. Assuming we ignore connector losses, and also assume that the customer is 10km away:

For us, it would be the economics of the whole thing. When a 16x19.5 EDFA runs around $20k, it's much more cost effective to combine 1550nm onto 16 PON's than onto 16 AE runs. Unless the equipment costs were to fall drastically, there's no way it would ever fly. On Fri, Feb 1, 2013 at 4:48 PM,
