As you can see there are 4 lights at the top of the OpenReach Full Fibre modem – Power, LOS (Loss of Service or Loss of Signal), PON (Passive Optical Network) and LAN (Local Area Network – but you know this one, right?). Think of LOS as showing a cut in the fibre connection, whereas PON is indicating your connection at the other end of the network. We'll then agree with you how best to set up your new service and where to put the BT Smart Hub to get the best wi-fi performance and speed. This may include running new cables, or disconnecting old extension wiring and powerline adapters. There are several lights on the ONT, when these lights change colour or flash, it means something is happening. I would imagine that a SFP based ONT would be quite popular among business users. Basically I you run some single mode cable from a junction box at the edge of your premises to where ever you wish to locate your router (probably in a cabinet somewhere in the middle of the building) where you plug the SFP ONT into your router of choice.

The ONT is negotiating a connection on the network. You’ll find this might happen a few times after initial installation. Nothing wrong with upgraded kit, but Does extending the range of a splitter to 98Km really achieve anything tangible. Possibly reduction of physical exchange buildings The fact there will be a cabinet en route with power, is that a factor or is it just the limits of the service creation environment? Aside from the well-publicised debate around Huawei kit, what is the benefit for OR moving to Nokia ONTs given how much they have invested in Huawei kit. Wont they lose access to things like ONT diagnostic info? If you’re referring to perhaps provisioning them off existing routers Openreach don’t have them. The only active equipment they’re allowed is some transmission kit, which doesn’t connect via the Cablelink to CPs, and the OLTs, which as above I don’t think support WDM.Underneath the box, from left to right, are 3 connectors – power, LAN out, optical fibre in, That middle one is the one that goes to your router. Unless said ‘Landline Engineer’ as you call them is also FTTP Skilled then chances of him having one are none existent to not a chance. This is actually another reason why no ONT SFPs – need them for each vendor to offer the service across the board. No idea if they are available from all three. And TBH copper lines that long must cost fortunes per premises to maintain so there is possibly a better commercial case to doing this than meets the first glance.

Just looks like the original Openreach ONT 1+1 just without the big case which I suspect it is, The real new BT ONT is a 1+0 from Nokia so this is just an interim solution without the big bulky case and no BBU A much smaller cable will be run through the wall and attached to another box on the inside of your property. This internal box, called an ONT, will be around 13cm x 11cm. Installations of Openreach’s ( BT) Fibre-to-the-Premises ( FTTP) based UK ultrafast broadband ISP technology will soon begin seeing a new Optical Network Unit (ONT), which is not only very compact (pictured top) but also comes in at a third of the cost of the existing unit. Obviously they’ve sacrificed a few little things. Without exception every PON installation I’ve seen in the UK has been delivered via a full fibre run inside the building with a splitter node or several in the basement or comms room. Like a DSLAM it delivers a bunch of VLANs, possibly nested depending on CP, to the OLT which are then sent to service providers via Cablelinks.’

This is a really good move actually. Kudos to Openreach. I’ve been waiting for street-side OLTs for a while. Then 40 km for the link between the subtended OLT and the headend OLT. On the Openreach network the range would, hence, be between 75 km and 98 km. The 98 km is an edge case. If you rent your property that you have the landlord's permission for us to drill a small hole on the inside and outside of the building. I would have liked to see an SFP ONT option too for those who would rather cut out the separate ONT. It’s not like Huawei don’t offer them. Is ‘service creation’, often no more than re-imposing the constraints of the past impeding a better design or we just living with the limitations of the current generation of kit?

Congratulations! If you’re reading this then I’m guessing you’ve upgraded to Full Fibre, or FTTP (Fibre to the Premises) as it’s also known. With vastly superior speeds over traditional fibre broadband, it’s slowly rolling out across the UK. From there, a much smaller cable will be run inside to a small, powered, wall-mounted unit that we’ll plug your router into. Finally, we’ll test your full fibre connection on one of your preferred devices to make sure you’re totally happy, so you can start making the most of a faster, more dependable connection than ever. Per my comment to NGA C+ optics with FEC provides a reach of 58km on a 4:1 split. The other 40km will be the 10G Ethernet link from the subtended OLT to the headend.We connect the 15cm x 13cm external junction box to the Openreach fibre network using a fibre optic cable. Depending on your property, the cable will either run from underground or from a telegraph pole. In both cases, the cable runs directly from one of our exchanges. If you are a fibre customer, it’s likely you’ll have an Openreach modem (or ONT) installed. This white box connects to a fibre-optic cable that runs to your house and enables you to access our FTTP fibre network for broadband and voice.
