Introduction
This guide describes the Tellabs ONT248 optical network terminal (ONT), its features,
status indicators, installation at the customer premises.
The ONT248 is part of the Tellabs 200 series of XGS-PON ONTs for passive optical
networks (PON). It is a 1RU rack mount ONT that is designed to be placed in existing
data closets and provide 1G ethernet and PoE power to attached devices. The ONT248
supports both the primary XGS-PON wavelength and Tellabs secondary XGS-PON
wavelength of 1550/1350 nm enabling multiple wavelengths over the same fiber. This
can enable substantial savings on infrastructure costs, and double the available
bandwidth over the same OLT fiber. This can also provide physical separation of
services for things like payment services or different user classifications all over the
same fiber.
When connected to a Tellabs optical line terminal (OLT — 1150/1150E, 1134, or 1131,
OLT6 or OLT-mini) upstream through a single fiber optic cable, the combination
provides high-performance enterprise ONT features, cost, energy, and space savings,
plus Tellabs exclusive high-security All Secure PON.
