Oh ok! I’ll take a look at that and maybe order one to play with.

If you need 48 ports per 1RU, then I would recommend you consider the Huawei S5700-52X-LI-48CS-AC. They do need moderate cooling, but have excellent cost-per-port and all the features you would want for Ethernet based FTTH (downstream port isolation, per port rate-limiting, SNMP, sticky MAC, stacking, tons of other features). We have one in our lab we have been evaluating for another FTTH project and they are awesome. Much better feature set than Planet. They use the dual-port CSFP transceivers to get 48 ports into that space. The switches are about $2k each depending on quantity. We are a Huawei VAR so message me if you want more info.

It does underscore how much more gear switching takes over PON.

I've got about 370 of it loaded with fiber, about a third of that will be connected here. It requires the thinner mil cable which is the only PITA about this setup really. It's using 24 port 1U fiber switches, but I'm still looking for a good Planet rep to get the 48 port 1U density. I could upgrade to those and fill out the entire 12U switch space to match the 576 panel capacity. Not going to have 100 percent take rate I'm sure, but it's nice to know I can get the density in one cabinet.
