today and is it ready for deployment? To answer this question, one
must review what has taken place within the last decade. There has
been significant interest and numerous attempts to extend the fiber
access network to support fiber-to-the-home applications and
provide broadband services.

Past successes have been limited to the technical portion of the
trials. Early designs were based on a point to point or one to one
correlation between the node equipment and the subscriber
electronics located at the premises. The introduction of passive
optical network (PON) configurations using passive splitter
technology has significantly impacted the cost of a system through
sharing the infrastructure costs for electronics and media among
