Cisco XGS-PON ONT Overview

This document is intended to direct network technicians and system administrators in the installation of the Cisco XGS-PON Optical Network Terminal (ONT).

Intended audience

This document is intended for network technicians and system administrators who will install the Cisco XGS-PON ONT.

It assumes that the intended users possess basic knowledge of, but not limited to:

  • Proper hardware installation

  • Proper hardware diagnostics

  • Ethernet concepts

  • IEEE standards

  • IETF standards

  • ITU-T standards

  • Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Seven Layer Model

  • Local Area Networks (LANs)

  • Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs)

  • Passive Optical Networks (PONs)

Cisco Routed PON ONT

Cisco 10G Routed PON ONTs are fully compliant with the XGS-PON ITU-T G.9807.1 standard, supporting symmetrical 10-Gbps downstream and upstream optical connectivity via an SC/APC optical connector to meet current and future networking needs. With integrated XGS-PON optics, MAC, and Ethernet switching capabilities, these ONTs help network operators optimize Total Cost of Ownership by reducing edge transport, switching, and routing costs, as well as minimizing footprint and power consumption. Used with Cisco routed PON modules, Cisco PON ONTs provide an ideal end-to-end solution for cost-effective, agile, and diverse networking requirements.
