  • Abstract
    Possible configurations of tunable components for the next-generation passive optical network stage 2 (NG-PON2) are reviewed on the basis of system requirements. Expected network functions in NG-PON2 systems along with the concept of in-service tuning in colorless ONUs are also reviewed.
