A 8-16 way split per gpon is more reasonable. I think the current cards are 4-10 gpon ports per, and 2 cards per E7-2. I know they have 2x10Gbps LAG working for uplink, can't remember if 4x10Gbps LAG works yet or not.
That is rubbish. We are using 128 optical splits and 64 users per OLT and a mix of users buying either 100 or 1000 Mbit/s service. This just works. The system is very far from being overloaded. We would put even more users on the OLT if our vendor would allow this (they only support a max of 64 users per OLT). Remember the very first thing users do when you sell 1000 Mbit/s internet is to run a speedtest. Our users do that too and they do get the expected 940-950 Mbit/s (=gigabit ethernet wire speed) speedtest result at all time of day, also at peak usage. Regards, Baldur
