High speeds combined with low latency prepare the network for exciting future applications like the Metaverse. 25 GPON offers enormous symmetrical bandwidth capacity to support new use cases and bandwidth requirements.
Gonzalo Garzón, Director of Fixed Access at Telefónica Spain, said:Telefónica was the first operator in Spain to provide gigabit connectivity, but we're not stopping there. Consumer demand for bandwidth never ceases, and the most exciting applications, such as virtual reality games, will always evolve to make the most of available bandwidth. New FTTH technologies offer us even more opportunities than just home connectivity. With their enormous increase in capacity, we'll be able to offer new business services on the same network.
Bjorn Capens, Vice President Europe at Nokia Fixed Networks, said: "Thanks to our Quillion chipset, this 25G PON proof of concept with Telefónica has demonstrated that the enormous bandwidth capacity can be easily added to their existing networks, coexisting with their current PON technologies. This means that customers on the same fiber line can be served with GPON, XGS-PON, or 25G GPON, greatly simplifying upgrade cycle management."
