NTC Solves ODN Management Challenges.Human Body Temperature Monitoring Sensor

　　In the development of FTTx, the access layer needs to build a huge fiber optic distribution network, known as an ODN network. The construction cost of ODN network is high, accounting for up to 50% -70% of the total investment, which is the focus of FTTx investment. Meanwhile, ODN is also a challenge in FTTx management. Firstly, compared to the simple P2P structure of copper wire, ODN mostly adopts P2MP topology, with many connecting nodes in the network and complex network management. Secondly, optical fibers are more sensitive than copper wires and are more susceptible to damage.

　　Therefore, efficient construction, operation, and maintenance of ODN are crucial, requiring an intelligent and accurate management solution to ensure that the ODN network is fully utilized and effectively protect long-term investments. At present, how to scientifically manage the ODN network has become the focus of the major operators and Standards organization such as ITU-T.

　　Can we solve the two core issues of ODN management and achieve automated ODN management without changing the passive characteristics of ODN? Huawei has proposed the iODN (Intelligent ODN) solution. In the iODN solution, ODN products have added the following intelligent features: fiber identification management, port status collection, port lookup indication, visualization tool PDA, etc.

　　The iODN solution can achieve automatic entry and management of ODN fiber connection information, ensuring the accuracy and timely synchronization of existing system information. At the same time, through the visualization software of PDA and the intelligent LED indication on iODN devices, optical fiber automatic searching and precise operation can be achieved, greatly improving operation and maintenance efficiency, and achieving efficient operation and maintenance of ODN networks. In addition, based on the iODN architecture, various value-added applications can be developed on the basis of existing systems to achieve automation of the entire construction, operation and maintenance process.
