EPON (Ethernet Passive Optical Network)

Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) is a telecommunications technology that uses optical fibers to deliver high-speed internet and other services. It connects multiple users to a single fiber line, which splits the signal among them without needing power at intermediate points, hence "passive." EPON is efficient and cost-effective, allowing data, voice, and video to be transmitted simultaneously over the same network. It’s widely used by internet service providers to offer broadband access, providing faster and more reliable connections than traditional copper cables, especially in urban areas.
