What is Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers in PONs about?
This document discusses the use of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) in passive optical networks (PONs). SOAs can extend the reach and split ratio of a PON by providing gain to compensate for optical loss. They can also serve as colorless upstream modulators in wavelength division multiplexed PONs by using reflective SOAs as wavelength-agnostic transmitters. Specifically, inline SOAs placed halfway between the optical line terminal and optical network units can increase the maximum reach to 60 km and
