FTTR represents the next evolution of fixed broadband as global demand for reliable, high-speed connectivity continues to rise. In China alone, Dell’Oro Group predicts that FTTR subscribers will exceed 80 million by 2026. FTTR for Business Customers, or FTTR-B, offers an even greater opportunity for operators to drive digital transformation for their small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). With a multi-decade lifespan, fiber networks offer long-term stability for SMB institutions.

“FTTR is growing rapidly for both residential and business applications,” said Amit Thakar, vice president, marketing for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Products Group. “A game-changer because of its capabilities, one of the biggest challenges for operators is efficient and cost-effective deployment. Semtech’s 2.5G FTTR solution lays a future-proof foundation, easily upgradeable to 10G PON without rewiring, enabling operators to protect their valuable network investments.”

“Building on Semtech’s previous success with low-cost 2.5G PIN ONU Super TIAs, we are offering a standards-compliant burst-mode 2.5G OLT Super TIA for the first time,” said Jacqui Adams, senior product line manager for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Products Group. “By replacing avalanche photodiodes (APD) in 2.5G FTTR and offering a chipset with the GN25L81 OLT combo, we significantly reduce component and installation costs for FTTR OLTs.”

About the 2.5G GN25L81 and GN25L42

The GN25L42 resetless Super TIA utilizes a PIN PD and patented low noise technology to provide sensitivity better than -30dBm. It also integrates a burst mode RSSI output to allow simple and low cost diagnostic reporting of the receiver’s input power.

The GN25L81 combines a 2.5G laser driver and a burst mode limiting amplifier (combo), completing the chipset with an optimized and compliant 2.5G burst mode limiting amplifier and a patented dual-loop 2.5G laser driver with eye shaping to enable low-cost lasers.
