ITU-T G.984

ITU-T G.984 is a standard developed by the International Telecommunication Union that defines how fiber optic communication networks should transmit data over long distances. Specifically, it outlines the technology for Passive Optical Networks (PON), which uses optical fiber to send signals directly to homes and businesses. This standard helps ensure that these networks can provide high-speed internet, television, and voice services efficiently and reliably, leading to improved connectivity and bandwidth for users. Essentially, G.984 sets the groundwork for modern fiber optic broadband infrastructure.
