100-ns λ-selective burst-mode transceiver for 40-km reach symmetric 40-Gbit/s WDM/TDM-PON

We propose a λ-selective burst-mode transceiver with 100-ns wavelength switching for the use in C and L-bands for upstream and downstream signals, respectively. The bidirectional 40-km transmission of symmetric 40-Gbit/s λ-tunable WDM/TDM-PON is demonstrated without a PON repeater.
