GPON is more than just a faster PON
Although GPON is considerably faster than other TDM PONs, is it fast enough? Does it have the right QoS mechanisms to ensure that upstream high-speed services don't starve high-QoS applications? A close look at GPON's attributes answers these questions.

Innovations in PON Cost Reduction
Can component technology alone satisfy the costs demand as well as the performance requirements? Are there product architectural improvements or network enhancements that are worth the effort to meet the cost targets? This paper will address the PON and PON component technology that can reduce the cost of the current equipment implementation by up to 50%.

GPON and EPON Economics
Cost is the number one feature of an optical access network. Currently, EPON is viewed as the lowest cost PON technology. However, this paper discusses how GPON's bandwidth and efficiency advantage along with its support for higher split ratios provides signifigant network cost savings over EPON.
