Synchronization Implications of FTTH and FTTP Architectures

This course will focus on ATM passive optical networking applications and the associated synchronization requirements. Synchronization is a key element for broadband architecture deployments designed to support real time services. Real time services depend on high-quality synchronization to ensure smooth transmission. As traffic passes across the network boundaries between the access network and the supporting transport and switching networks, synchronization to a common, accurate clock is needed to minimize slips - slips that cause packet loss or retransmission - and to reduce buffering, which introduces additional latency and jitter. APONs provide support for high quality of service (QoS) for all types of traffic that real time broadband access technology must transport.
