Paper Abstract
Active Optical Networks that implement a logical star topology, provide an economic way to introduce Fiber In The Loop. This network type is matched to 'service scenarios' with switched (interactive) digital video as the main revenue generating network service. These broadband services can easily be integrated with narrow-band communication services due to (de)multiplexer functionality in the network modes. Broadband scenarios of this kind will become a reality in the near future in the wake of the massive effort (especially in the USA) put in the development of high-quality, low-bit-rate digital video systems. In addition, FITL service scenarios provide business opportunities not only for the telcos but also for CATV operators.
