Explain the QoS in EPON.

Answer»

Many PON applications require high QoS (e.g. IPTV).

EPON leaves QoS to higher layers −

  • VLAN tags
  • P bits or DiffServ DSCP

In addition, there is a crucial difference between LLID and Port-ID −

  • There is always 1 LLID per ONU
  • There is 1 Port-ID per input port - there may be many per ONU
  • This makes port-based QoS simple to implement at PON layer
