With single-mode fiber from an OLT to ONTs via optical splitters, a passive optical LAN can span long airport distances to support a wide range of technologies without the need to deploy traditional IT spaces in expensive real estate. The Nokia Optical LAN solution overcomes the shortcomings in copper-based LANs to drive transformation to Airport 4. 0 in a cost-effective way—today and for decades to come. PON has the added. Tellabs Optical LAN ensures airport networks have a graceful and cost-effective means to grow connectivity density, speed and capacity in support of ever increasing smart building, IoT and Wi-Fi demands. Airports are embracing Industry 4.
