In FTTx development, the access layer needs to create a huge optical fiber distribution network, that is, the ODN network. The cost of building the ODN network is high. The maximum investment can be 50%-70% of the total investment, which is the focus of FTTx investment. Meanwhile, ODN is also a difficult point for FTTx management. First of all, it is a simple P2P structure than copper lines. The ODN uses P2MP topology, and there are many connection nodes in the network, resulting in complicated network management. Second, optical fiber is more sensitive than copper wires and is more vulnerable to damage.

Therefore, efficient construction, operation, and maintenance of ODN is crucial. An intelligent and accurate management solution is required to ensure that the ODN network is fully utilized to effectively protect long-term investment. At present, how to scientifically manage the ODN network has become the focus of the major operators and ITU-T and other standard organizations.

So can we solve the two core issues of ODN management without changing the passive characteristics of ODN and achieve automatic management of ODN? Huawei proposed the iODN smart ODN) solution. In the iODN solution, the ODN product adds the following smart features: Optical Fiber identification management, port status collection, port search indication, and visualization tool PDA.

The iODN solution can automatically input and manage the connection information of the ODN optical fiber, ensuring that the existing system information is accurate and synchronized in a timely manner. At the same time, the visualization software of PDA and intelligent LED indication on iODN equipment can realize automatic optical fiber searching and precise operations, greatly improve the O & M efficiency, and achieve efficient operation and maintenance of the ODN network. In addition, based on the iODN architecture, a variety of value-added applications can be developed based on the existing system to automate the entire process of construction and O & M.
