Demonstration of a 40Gb/s time and Wavelength Division Multiplexed passive optical network prototype system

We demonstrate a TWDM-PON prototype system with 40Gb/s downstream and 10Gb/s upstream bandwidth. It supports 20km distance with a 1:512 split ratio. It also coexists with commercially deployed G-PON and XG-PON systems.
