Summary
1 Summary
The FiberGateway is an Optical Terminal Equipment (ONT) unit for Passive Optical Networks (PON)
termination in a FTTH (Fiber-To-The-Home) service delivery architecture. FiberGateway
communicates with the OLT (Optical Line Terminal) for the PON side and with the customer’s
premises for the client side. This equipment supports triple-play services - high speed internet (HSI),
voice (VoIP), video (IPTV) and WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). The use of the GPON fiber access
technology does allow a significant service delivery increase when compared with traditional xDSL
technologies.
The FiberGateway equipment technology is based on GEM (GPON Encapsulation Method), and
complies with ITU-T G.984.x. recommendation as like as G.984.4 (OMCI) ensuring interoperability
with major GPON OLT vendors (BBF.247).
These base functionalities, together with the support for bit rates of up to 2.5 Gbps (downstream) and
1.24 Gbps (upstream), an optical network splitting ratio of up to 1:64 in a single fiber and a distance
range of up to 60 km, make the GPON technology and the FiberGateway the most efficient option for
passive optical network topologies, when integrated service delivery is an issue.
Together with multi-vendor OLT interoperability (BBF.247 certified), other differentiated features of the
FiberGateway product include the use of an embedded optical reflective component that increases
probing resolution in case of FTTH probing. The FiberGateway is also one of the first single household
integrated CPE solution (ONT+GATEWAY).
As opposed to the point-to-point architecture, in which there is one physical port per client in the
Central Office, in GPON point-to-multipoint architecture there is only a single laser and photo-detector
in the Central Office (CO) to serve up to 128 CPEs. All the Optical Distribution Network is built by
means of passive equipment modules with a long live MTBF standards and very low OPEX.

2.1 FiberGateway Main Functionalities
The FiberGateway is aimed for customer premises and complies with the ITU-T G.984.x
recommendation in order to transport (over GPON) and deliver (to premises domain) the full
broadband service pack.
Broadband service applications are commonly referred as below:
• High speed internet (HSI);
• Voice (VoIP) services (SIP/MEGACO H.248);
• TV (IPTV);
• Wi-Fi.
The multiplay environment is thus reinforced when combining the upper referred services.
2.2 FiberGateway Application Scenario
The next figure shows a possible gateway scenario for FiberGateway equipments when in an FTTx
architecture.

Technical Description
2.3 Interoperability
FiberGateway equipment complies with ITU-T G.984.x. recommendation as like as G.984.4 (OMCI)
ensuring multi-vendor OLT interoperability with major GPON OLT vendors, as defined in BBF.247
ONU certification program.
BBF.247 ONU certification program certifies ONT link layer configuration and management protocol,
OMCI, Figure 2, as defined by ITU-T G.984.3, ITU-T G.984.4 and ITU-T G.988.
Figure 2: Link Layer Configuration and Management
IP-based services configuration and management is achieved by means of the TR-069 protocol as
defined by Broadband Forum. This procedure takes for granted that previously the link layer
connectivity has been achieved.
TR-069 is then transparent to the OLT, since the TR-069 connections are established between the
ACS and the ONTs, Figure 4.
ONT gateway family equipments integrate gateway functionalities. Link layer configuration and
management is achieved by the use of OMCI, while IP-based services (RG functionality and Voice
over IP) are configured and managed by TR-069, Figure 3.

• Control switches for power and Wi-Fi;
Network interface option is of type:
• GPON SC/APC Optical connector (B+/C+).
2.5 General Features
GPON is a point-to-multipoint passive optical network, in which unpowered optical splitters are used to
enable a single optical fiber to serve multiple premises, typically 1-64.
A PON consists of an optical line terminal (OLT) at the central office and a number of optical network
terminals (ONT) at the customer premises. Downstream signals are broadcasted to all premises
sharing multiple fibers. Encryption can prevent eavesdropping. Upstream signals are combined using
a multiple access protocol (Time Division Multiple Access - TDMA). The OLT queues data to the
various ONT terminals in order to provide time slot assignments for upstream communication.
In Figure 5 it is shown a scenario for a multi-service user domain basic architecture through an ISP
network.

Technical Description
Figure 5: Optical fiber Internet service user access
In the upstream direction, the FiberGateway is connected to the optical splitter and respectively to the
OLT through the PON port to provide integrated access services through the service headend.
In the downstream direction, the FiberGateway is connected to various terminals through the following
LAN-side ports to implement multi-play services:
• Four 10/100/1000M Base-T Ethernet ports, which can be connected to terminals such as PCs,
STBs, and video phones to provide the high-speed data and video services;
• Two FXS ports, which can be connected to telephone sets to provide VoIP services;
• Four Wi-Fi antennas, which can connect to Wi-Fi terminals wirelessly to provide a secure and
reliable high-speed wireless network;
• One USB port, which can be connected to a USB storage device to provide convenient
storage and file sharing services within a home network;
The communication between client equipment (ONT) and the ISP access routers (MAN edge) is made
by an optical fiber-based passive architecture (ITU-T G.984 Recommendation). The GPON network
acts as a Layer 2 Ethernet metropolitan network. Access network assures and controls the media
(MAC) communication through a TDMA scheme, introducing GEM (GPON Encapsulation Method) in
between to adapt TDM layer to Ethernet.
The used protocol stack is shown in Figure 6.
Q_PDS_DM_09_V1.2
FiberGateway User Manual

Technical Description
Figure 6: Stack of protocols for GPON architecture
Several transmission containers (T-CONT) are assigned to each user. Each T-CONT has an
associated GEM port and each GEM port has a VLAN identifier and an 802.1p priority level.
The ONT classifies the traffic depending on the VLAN and the marked priority, and routes it over the
corresponding T-CONT/GEM port. Thus for frame multiplexing, GEM and T-CONT ports are used for
uplink while the downlink only use the GEM ports feature.
FiberGateway complies with Broadband Forum TR-142 Technical Report, which defines a framework
for the remote configuration and management of IP-based services over PON (Passive Optical
Network) and fiber access technology.
TR-142 framework uses TR-069 which is the protocol of choice for the remote management and
configuration of IP services over PON and fiber access networks. TR-069 is intended to be used for
the remote configuration and management of IP services running over ONT, as well as for some
aspects of ONT management.
Figure 7: TR-142 Framework
TR-142 framework defines a virtual UNI between the OMCI (ONT Management Control Interface) and
TR-069 management domains.
This framework allows PON CPE with L3 layer capabilities to be mass remotely configured,
troubleshoot and managed by an ACS (Auto Configuration Server) using TR-069 CPE WAN
Management Protocol.

Technical Description
2.6 General Architecture
FiberGateway basic system architecture is hereafter presented.
Figure 8: FiberGateway system architecture
The GPON IC Processing unit is the core component inside FiberGateway. It is responsible for the
interconnection and processing between client side interfacing and optical GPON Uplink interface.
2.7 GPON
The FiberGateway GPON layer as G.984.x uses 1490nm downstream and 1310nm upstream of the
optical wavelengh, with 2,488Gbps downstream and 1,244Gbps upstream by using an SC/APC
protected optical connector.
2.8 Ethernet
Ethernet is the wired LAN technology and is revised in the IEEE 802.3 standard. At the OSI reference
system, Ethernet is at the Data Link layer. In the FiberGateway equipment both WAN and LAN type of
physical interfaces are 10/100/1000BASE-T AUTO-MIX Ethernet type over RJ45 conectors.
2.9 IPTV
For the IPTV service the FiberGateway also behaves like a Layer 2 bridging device. For this service,
the FiberGateway has a specific GEM PORT for Multicast. This same GEM PORT is requested by the
user in order to have access to the various IPTV channels. Every time a user requests a new channel,
Q_PDS_DM_09_V1.2
FiberGateway User Manual
25
Technical Description
the FiberGateway will send to OLT a IGMP packet requesting that Channel. The FiberGateway is also
responsible for implementing the snooping for the channels that the user requests.
2.10 Voice
2.10.1 Supported VoIP specifications:
• Call control: SIPv1/v2;
• T.38 Fax relay;

2.10.2 Supported interfaces
FiberGateway voice service provisioning could be made through OLT configurations over OMCI
messages or could be downloaded (FTP) from the OLT up to the FiberGateway after its registration
on the PON network. FiberGateway equipments have the ability to deliver the Voice service over two
types of interface:
2.10.2.1 Logical interface (VLAN encapsulation)
If the FiberGateway has no FXS ports and the VoIP service is transparently forwarded from the OLT
up to the Home Gateway (and vice versa) within a previously defined voice VLAN. FiberGateway
respects the defined priority and implements the traffic encapsulation from its own Ethernet interface
into a specific T-CONT/GEM-Port over the PON interface and up to the OLT equipment.
2.10.2.2 Physical interface (FXS ports)
The FiberGateway has physical RJ11 FXS interfaces. In this version of the FiberGateway equipment,
voice interfaces are terminated in the equipment by means of FXS (RJ11) connections. The RJ11
analog terminals adapter function is auto/self-configured, integrated (analog/VoIP) and associated with
a defined SIP or Megaco (H.248) user.
Q_PDS_DM_09_V1.2
FiberGateway User Manual
26
Technical Description
The FiberGateway will allow VoIP or NGN (Next Generation Network) traffic from devices connected
to the RJ11 or RJ45 interfaces, towards the same internal VLAN.
Apart of the SIP and Megaco (H.248) self-configuration, it is also possible to make modifications in the
voice service configurations by updating the FiberGateway SW through download from the OLT via
OMCI.
The FiberGateway equipment has a DHCP client to get an IP address, alternatively the FiberGateway
could be configured with a static IP. The configuration of the static IP or DHCP client is related to the
WAN side and is enabled by the OLT.

2.12 Multiple QoS per VLAN
The FiberGateway supports 802.1p QoS per VLAN services in which several flows (one per allowed
pbit) are embedded in the same VLAN. According to the applied configuration, the FiberGateway
performs a per-flow QoS policy: dropping traffic marked with not allowed pbits and limiting to the
configured value the data rate of the allowed flows.
The FiberGateway performs transparent VLAN translation. It is transparent to upper layer protocols,
such as ARP, RIP, DHCP, IGMP, PPP, etc.

Technical Description
2.13 Policing/Rate Limiting
2.13.1 Downstream QoS
The OLT system supports traffic classification at the ingress ports (ETH, LAGs, PON, etc) based on P-
Bits, IP DSCP and IP.
The OLT system provides several QoS mechanisms, that can be targeted to the flow characterized by
one or two VLAN according with the type of service, or can be targeted to the packets priority, where
each p-bit/DSCP is mapped in one of eight queues of each port.
For each OLT ports are associated eight queues, for each of these queues is possible to configure the
p-bit mapping in one of the queues, the scheduler type (Strict Priority or Weighted Fair Queuing) and
the minimum and maximum bandwidth of each queue.
Figure 10: Dowstream QoS diagram
In the downstream direction, Figure 10, the ingress traffic can be firstly classified. It passes by a
policer and is configured to each ONT service, which is defined by one or two tags. It is remarked and
policed per-CoS rate (port profile).
After this, Network services (per VLAN) classification determine the PON port queue where packets
will wait for a transmission opportunity, and can remark the CoS (P-bits in VLAN PCP). The traffic is
put in a queue according with the p-bit/DSCP->Traffic Class mapping.
Each of these Traffic Classes is associated with a scheduler (WRR or SP) and a policer.
Queue congestion management is used to prevent the queue from overflowing and is performed
based on Tail Drop or WRED.
Each queue is served by either a priority or weighted scheduler and rate controlled.
Then Traffic Classes to P-bit remarking is done and the traffic flows to the GPON interface.
Destination ONU/ONT client service downstream profile defines traffic classless policing. The overall
PON port may be limited to a percentage of its capacity.
Traffic arriving to the ONU/ONT it will pass by a mapping block which will map the traffic in one of the
eight queues according with the p-bits; these queues have a Strict Priority scheduler in order to
guarantee that the most prioritized traffic passes first, Figure 10.

Technical Description
2.13.2 Upstream QoS
Figure 11: Upstream QoS diagram
In the upstream, Figure 11, for each T-CONT DBA the ingress traffic in the ONT passes by a mapping
block that maps the traffic in one of the eight queues according with the p-bit, (in case the ingress
traffic is untagged a DSCP->p-bit mapping is performed).
These queues have a Strict Priority Scheduler. Packets are stored at the intended T-CONT priority
queue, which is scheduled according to ONT configuration.
The ONT “waits” until the OLT assigns a transmission timeslot for that T-CONT, according to DBA, so
that the most prioritized queues are the ones that transmit first.
In the OLT PON ingress port, traffic is remarked and can be policed per-CoS. The traffic is put into a
Traffic Class according with what is defined in the p-bit/DSCP->queue mapping.
Each of these Traffic Classes has an associated scheduler and policer. Queue management is
performed based on Tail Drop or WRED. Then Traffic Classes to P-bit remarking is done and the
traffic is sent to the uplink, Figure 11.
2.13.3 Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA)
The DBA (Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation) is available in order to optimize the upstream bandwidth.
This mechanism consists in defining an adequate T-CONT to the service traffic in question. There are
five types of T-CONT, defined by the Fixed, Assured and Maximum Parameters:
• Type 1: Only fixed Bandwidth;
• Type 2: Only Assured Bandwidth;
• Type 3: Assured+Maximum Bandwidth;
• Type 4: Only Maximum Bandwidth (Best Effort);
• Type 5: Fixed+Assured+Maximum Bandwidth.

3.4 Optical metering
The equipment measures the downstream received power from the OLT in 1490nm and reports this
value through OMCI. The accuracy of the measurement is +/- 3dBm, maximum. Optionally,
FiberGateway has also the chance to have an embedded optical reflective component in order to
increase the FTTH probing capabilities in a 50 centimeters resolution factor, which turns to have a
single probing system to probe all GPON network ONTs even when its number increases over Million
customers.
3.5 Wavelength filtering
The optical interface has WDM filters that allow GPON coexistence with RF video services (1550-
1560nm) and the new generation of NGPON1 technology, according to G.984.5 Recommendation.
ITU-T Rec. G987.1 is also granted for XGPON, (following FSAN NG-PON2).
In order to face the final user´s demands, current GPON networks have to confront the first evolution
in terms of terminal equipments and actual infrastructure. Migration will be available through a new
wavelength planning, by allowing the co-existence of two different technologies over the same fiber.
The ITU-T Rec. G987.1 provides a mechanism for GPON to XGPON migration with the possibility to
achieve 2.5Gbps upstream path. Nominally downstream will be 10 Gbps.
The next figure depicts the wavelength planning of ITU-T Rec. G987.1:
Q_PDS_DM_09_V1.2
FiberGateway User Manual
40
General Specifications
Figure 13: Wavelength planning
In order to accomplish to that plan, the upstream wavelength for GPON must be restricted to ONU
(ONT) equipment based on the ordinary DFB lasers, while the XGPON downstream signal range is
defined from 1575 nm to 1580 nm and the XGPON upstream signal from 1260 nm to 1280 nm. For the
coexistence of XGPON and GPON over the same fiber, the CO requires a WDM filter that combines
the downstream signal (1490 nm, 1555 nm and 1577 nm), isolating the 1310 nm and 1270 nm
upstream signal, with the video signal. Also the wavelength of 1650 nm, used for fiber monitoring, has
to be handled.
In addition, ONT devices require the use of a triplexer type transceiver that include an integrated filter
or a discrete WDM filter to distinguish the different signals that may be present on the fiber. The
current networks, equipped with ONT in accordance with the current ITU-T Rec. G984.5, will be easily
updated to XGPON.
Class B+ optical budget are the nominal requirement for coexistence of GPON and XGPON over the
same optical fiber. Taking this requirement into account, the fiber network architecture will not limit the
future of the service provider business since GPON architectures, respecting B+ class of the GPON,
are easily updated by placing newest terminal equipments, namely XOLT and XONT, and by replacing
the current WDM filter by the new one in order to handle the new XGPON signals.
XGPON must support/emulate all GPON legacy services in case of total migration.
Like GPON, XGPON is required to support triple play services (data, voice and video), as well as
mobile backhauling (accurate frequency/phase/time synchronization) application through its high
quality of service and high bit rate feature capabilities. Access to Ethernet services such as point-to-
point, multipoint-to-multipoint and rooted-multipoint Ethernet Virtual Connection services should be
provided. Finally, as a global requirement, XG-PON needs to support IPv6.
3.6 GPON/Ethernet characteristics
GPON/Ethernet characteristics supported, both functional level and GTC-OMCI configuration,
corresponds with the general mandatory characteristics defined in ITU-T G.984.3, G.984.4 and G.988

Configuration
5 Configuration
Configuration of the FiberGateway equipment is done remotely, using OMCI and TR-069.
5.1 FiberGateway Activation
The equipment activation process has a distributed set of procedures that allow the connection of an
inactive equipment to a PON network. This configuration is done following the procedure described in
the OMCI protocol.
5.2 Costumization
For customization process, the requirements specified in the G.984.4, G.984.5 and ‘Implementer’s
Guide’ in the G.984.4 v1 are taken into account.
5.2.1 Software download from the OLT
The software download is made following the OMCI-based procedure included in the ‘Implementer’s
Guide’ of the G.984.4 Recommendation.
The Managed Entity (ME) in charge of managing the software download is named Software Image.
Per each ME containing independently-manageable software, the FiberGateway creates two software
images. Each image will have three attributes:
• Valid - if it has been verified that it’s content is an image with executable code;
• Committed - if once the FiberGateway is rebooted, it is loaded and executed;
• Active - if it is loaded and it is being executed in the FiberGateway.
There can be only one active image and only one committed image at a given moment. The
FiberGateway goes through a series of states in order to download and activate a software image.
Each state is defined according to the states of the variables of both images. The OLT controls the
FiberGateway state through a series of commands:
• Start download
o It starts the software download sequence. This action is only valid for inactive
and non-committed software images;
• Download section
o It downloads a section of a software image. This action is only valid for an
image that is being downloaded;
• End download
o It indicates the end of a download sequence, providing the CRC and
information about version for the final verification of the downloaded software
image. This action is only valid for a software image that is being downloaded;
• Activate image
o It loads/executes a valid software image. When this action is applied to an
inactive software image, the execution of the current code image is
suspended, the associated software image is loaded from the non-volatile
memory and the execution of the new code image is started. When this action
is applied over a software image that is active, a reboot is executed;
Q_PDS_DM_09_V1.2
FiberGateway User Manual
54
Configuration
• Commit image
o It selects a valid SW image to be loaded and executed by default when the
FiberGateway is restarted;
• Composition of the Software Image
o A software image is divided into sections of 31 bytes, with one section per
OMCC message and each section protected by the CRC of the OMCC. A
group of sections makes up a window, and a group of windows constituting
the image.
