In the hospital wireless construction scenario, the customer chooses the sensitive point solution and the POL solution for networking. Which OLT board can achieve a more cost-effective networking…

Question

Options

• AP2P board
• BXGPON board
• CXGS PON board

• A
  12% (3)
• B
  19% (5)
• C
  69% (18)

Explanation

XGS-PON (option C) is the correct choice because it supports symmetric 10 Gbps bandwidth (equal upstream and downstream) at a high splitting ratio, meaning one OLT port can serve many ONUs simultaneously - dramatically lowering the cost per access point in a dense hospital wireless deployment.

Why A (P2P board) is wrong: P2P (point-to-point) boards require a dedicated fiber run per device, eliminating the shared-medium cost advantage that makes POL attractive in the first place - it's the most expensive option at scale.

Why B (XGPON board) is wrong: XG-PON1 (XGPON) is asymmetric - 10 Gbps downstream but only 2.5 Gbps upstream. In a hospital wireless scenario with many APs uploading patient data, monitoring feeds, and video, the constrained upstream bandwidth is a mismatch for the "sensitive point" high-bandwidth requirement.

Memory tip: Think "XGS = X-tra Good Symmetry." The S in XGS-PON stands for symmetric, which is the key differentiator - hospital wireless APs need balanced up/down throughput, and symmetric 10G with POL's natural fiber splitting gives you both performance and cost efficiency in one board.
