Title: OTDR Measurements on PON Network with Utilization of Optical Fiber G.652.D
Abstract: This article is devoted to the measurement and analysis of passive optical networks PON (Passive
Optical Network) with and without utilization PLC (Planar Lightwave Circuit) splitter. The real network
simulation is done as a prevention of complications in the final construction of optical network, which is
designed for specific user requirements. The article describes connections between two campuses. The optical
networks were first designed, and afterwards simulated and implemented. These buildings are connected by
single mode fiber G.652.D (706.4 m) terminated with SC / PC and optical splitter (PLC) with the ratio of 1:8
and insertion loss of 10.8 dB. Main contribution of this paper was comparison of the difference between
measured parameters of optical networks and demonstration when it is better to use an optical splitter, and
when it is better to connect the fibre directly.
