If cost is an issue, why not just put an Ethernet switch on the far side of the RF link? It's just 18 homes so any 24 port SFP switch would do.

Because a GPON4 or GPON8 card is a chunk of change.

Why go to that trouble, and not just packetize it over an RF link? Do a new GPON segment at the far end, or am I not understanding something?

I am sure this has been discussed before but not finding it.
 
I need to extend service to a small cluster of new homes being built.  About 18 homes.
Too far to get there with fiber right now.  Maybe in a few years. 
 
So I want to extend my system up to them.  Will take a repeater.  So need to probably haul a gig up there on point to point. 
 
I would prefer to be able to serve these customers with Calix GPON.  I could put an E2 system up there and feed it with ethernet.  But it seems someone has come up with a way to extend an actual OLT/OIM type of signal via RF and put it back on the fiber such that the ONU thinks it is talking back to my E7-20 shelf at my C.O.
 
Does any of this sound familiar?
