  • Multi-port channelized optical line terminal
    Patent number: 9231722
    Abstract: A method and system for channelizing a Passive Optical Network (PON) Media Access Controller (MAC) includes increasing a clock rate of each of one or more PON MAC(s) to create communication lanes each comprising a plurality of N channels. The PONs are channelized according to NX, where N equals a number of ports supported by the MAC and X equals a designated operating PON MAC clocking rate allowing for leveraging of existing Passive Optical Network (PON) infrastructures to provide a more power efficient and physically smaller MAC layer for OLTs.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 28, 2013
    Date of Patent: January 5, 2016
    Assignee: BROADCOM CORPORATION

  • Method and apparatus for accommodating TDM traffic in an ethernet passive optical network
    Patent number: 7590139
    Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for accommodating time-division multiplexing (TDM) traffic in an Ethernet passive optical network (EPON). During operation, the system receives data from an upstream TDM channel at a remote node and stores received data in a segmentation buffer. The system encapsulates the data stored in the segmentation buffer into a packet. The system receives a message from the central node granting a TDM transmission window starting at a designated time. The system further communicates the packet to an upstream transmission mechanism within the remote node before the designated time, and transmits to the central node an upstream frame containing the packet at the designated time.
