Abstract
The Broadband Forum, TR-255, GPON Interoperability Test Plan, defines test cases based on the requirements/recommendations of BBF TR-156 and ITU0T G.Imp984.4. Each test case requires both an OLT and ONU/ONT, and verifies the behavior(s), as seen at the U and V reference points, match the standard requirement(s).

Abstract
This test suite verifies the functionality of an ONU device supporting both GPON and point-to-point Gigabit Ethernet with a single optical transceiver. The tests measure the transmitted power with the optical link active and disconnected to ensure an ONU will not optically pollute an active PON network upon it's initial connection by transmitting P-t-P Ethernet signaling upstream.
