For the accommodation of mobile, business, and residential service in the same optical distribution network, we experimentally demonstrate 50 Gb/s (25 Gb/s × 2 wavelengths) wireless and wired service converged optical access network with 64-way power split over 20 km of single mode fiber in 1300 nm band. Applying simple Reed-Solomon based forward-error-correction and a cost-effective avalanche photodiode receiver without using an optical amplifier realize the 64-way power split. Accommodating dynamic bandwidth allocation and open interface control with OpenDaylight (ODL) controller via network configuration protocol (NETCONF) interface are demonstrated. Furthermore, error-free packet transmission of 50 Gb/s with low latency and guaranteed bandwidth are successfully demonstrated.
