Triple Play Multiple ISP Problem, 4-port ONU Emulation

  • Majority fiber vendor support multiple ISP
  • ISP provide Triple Play service (Internet, VoIP & IPTV)
  • Vendor supply 4-port ONU for each service or ISP

4-port ONU Emulation

Based on ru-board, xPON Stick with 4-Port Emulation support is limited!

ONU LAN Port Binding example

If you using 4-port ONU like Huawei HG8240H5, Nokia G-240G-E and Router connected to ONU LAN 2/3/4, you have limited option, I recommend ODI DFP-34X-2C2 with 220304 or newer firmware.

Table 4-port ONU Emulation

Here list of xPON Stick on the market that support 4-port ONU Emulation:

V-SOL V2801F ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ❌ Stock Firmware

✔️ Port Emulation Support

❌ Not Supported

Root mean your ONU is All in One where PPPoE/DHCP ended inside ONU (not bridge/route mode)

PVID is VLAN untagging, at router side, WAN connected without VLAN, useful consumer router such as TL-XDR5480 without VLAN support
