  • Abstract
    FABULOUS is an EU project pertaining to the 7th framework program with the aim of proving the effectiveness of a Passive Optical Network adopting WDM FDM/FDMA approach, able to grant increased bandwidth, flexibility and cost savings with respect to the recently approved NG-PON2 architecture. In this paper we will show a system management, power and cost comparison among the FABULOUS and the NG-PON2 architectures.
