1. Introduction
The MD1230/MP1590 family (hereafter MD1230B) is a measuring instruments designed for
next-generation networks. This documents explains its applications for PON used in increasingly
common FTTH networks (B-PON, E-PON (GE-PON), G-PON).
First, it explains the methods for performing simultaneous one-way and two-way End-to-End
measurement of all the ONU and OLT equipment in a 32-branch PON system with a single
measuring instrument.
Additionally, it explains the method for verifying E-PON frames by capturing and decoding system
frames, especially E-PON related.
