      Hi everyone,
      While studying through different papers I came to know two topics passive optical network (PON) and Radio over Fiber (RoF). These two network architecture are most widely used in case of transmission system design. Where I have understand the RoF a but About passive optical network I am still confused. what is the diffence in the design of these two network.

      Thanks

      Hi Prarthana,

      Radio over Fiber is merely a technology modulating the light by a radio signal to be able to be transmitter over an optical fiber. A PON is ANY optical network in which no active switching components have been used. To better understand PON concept, I suggest you have a look at the following forum and the answers:

      WDM-PON design
