Huawei Exam H35-210_V2.5 Topic 6 Question 91 Discussion

GPON Overview :

GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network) is a fiber-optic access technology standardized by the ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union) under the G.984.x series of standards.

It is not based on Ethernet but uses its own framing structure called GEM (GPON Encapsulation Method) for data transmission.

IEEE 802.3ah :

IEEE 802.3ah is the standard for EPON (Ethernet Passive Optical Network) , which is a competing technology to GPON.

EPON uses Ethernet frames for data transmission and is standardized by the IEEE, unlike GPON, which is standardized by ITU-T.

Why FALSE?

The statement incorrectly associates GPON with IEEE 802.3ah, which applies to EPON, not GPON.

Thus, the correct answer is B .
