Fiber for everything
One fiber broadband network. Many opportunities.
As broadband shifts from fiber-to-the home to Fiber for Everything, you need a platform that will enable you to connect consumers, businesses, industry 4.0, mobile sites, wholesale and smart cities - all on a single access infrastructure.
Multi-Gigabit is here
Broadband is no longer defined by average speeds; it is defined by peak moments.
User traffic patterns are becoming increasingly bursty, with peak demand significantly exceeding the average. Networks that can handle these peaks make a huge difference in user experience. Discover how new generation of PON technologies empower you to deliver unbeatable multi-gigabit broadband.

Choose the right technology for your business case
Every broadband network is different, which is why there is no one-size-fits-all broadband technology. Nokia is the only vendor that supports all fiber PON technologies, so you can choose the right technology at the right time – for your customers and your business case.
XGS-PON has become the mainstream PON technology. Its 10G symmetrical capacity helps you compete better, monetize more, and operate more efficiently - all with low incremental cost. Nokia is the global market leader in XGS-PON.
The easiest way to boost your fiber performance beyond XGS-PON is 25G PON. Leverage the existing capabilities of your fiber assets to deliver true 10G and beyond to consumers, businesses, industry 4.0, 5G cell sites, and more. Nokia 25G PON is the industry-leading solution, already deployed by operators, cable MSOs and in smart city networks.
The next big step for fiber is 50G PON. The remarkable advances in optical and silicon innovations, steadily move 50G PON closer to deployments. Nokia 50G solution delivers massive capacity, enhanced security and rock-solid reliability allowing operators to address enterprise connectivity today and be ready for whatever comes tomorrow.
Nokia Bell Labs were first to demonstrate 100 Gb/s on a single PON wavelength in 2021, using pioneering digital signal processing techniques and flexible rate transmission. While the technology is in very early stage, few operators have trialed the technology, in labs and even in a live network.
Fiber for enterprise connectivity
Today, fiber goes beyond connecting homes, powering enterprise offices, industrial sites, smart campuses, and 5G sites - all on a single high-performance infrastructure. PON networks allow operators to deliver all services over one network, enabling fast-to-market with enterprise services, new revenue streams, reduced energy use, and lower total cost of ownership. This is the future of enterprise connectivity.
