On-the-Field Demonstration of Quintuple-Play Service Provision in Long-Reach OFDM-based WDM-PON Access Networks

A multi-user 4-wavelength OFDM WDM-PON providing quintuple-play services is demonstrated on-the-field in a long-reach FTTH network in Bratislava (Towercom, Slovakia) achieving 60.8 km. An OFDM signal bundle is transmitted in coexistence (LTE, WiMAX, UWB, DVB-T and ad-hoc OFDM-GbE) providing 1.45 Gbit/s per user.
