The Focuscom GP5801-01 is a compact single-port GPON OLT designed for cost-effective fiber access networks. Its small pizza-box form factor supports both desktop and wall-mounted installation, making it suitable for space-constrained deployment environments.

With one GPON port and a maximum 1:128 split ratio, the GP5801-01 can provide point-to-multipoint fiber access for multiple ONUs through a passive optical distribution network. The OLT supports up to 20 km physical transmission distance and 60 km logical distance, providing flexible deployment options for FTTH and other FTTx networks.

The GP5801-01 complies with ITU-T G.984 and G.988 standards and supports interoperability with ONUs from different brands. It also provides standard OMCI management and rich Layer 2 switching functions for reliable network operation.

Flexible GPON Network Deployment

A typical GPON access network consists of an OLT, optical distribution network (ODN), optical splitter and ONUs. The GP5801-01 works as the access-side OLT, while passive optical components distribute the fiber connection to multiple end users.

This architecture makes the single-port GPON OLT suitable for FTTH access networks, apartment buildings, SOHO environments, small businesses, campuses and other low-density fiber access applications.

Rich Network Management Functions

The GP5801-01 provides multiple management and network control functions for practical GPON deployments.

It supports 4K VLAN, port-based VLAN, static MAC configuration, MAC filtering, port MAC address limits and 2K jumbo-frame forwarding. For traffic management, the OLT supports flow-based rate limiting, mirroring, redirection, 802.1P and DSCP priority marking, as well as SP, WRR and SP+WRR queue scheduling.

Management options include CLI, Telnet and WEB, together with FTP/TFTP file transfer, Ping and Traceroute functions.

Apartment FTTH Application

For an apartment building, the GP5801-01 can be deployed as a compact access OLT connected to the upstream network and an optical distribution network. A passive optical splitter can distribute the GPON signal to multiple apartments, where ONUs provide network access to end users.

Its compact size and wall-mounting capability make it suitable for deployment in telecom cabinets, equipment rooms or other limited-space locations. With a maximum 1:128 split ratio, one GPON port can support a high number of connected ONUs depending on the network design and actual deployment requirements.
