A passive optical network (PON) is defined as a system commonly used by telecommunications network providers that brings fiber optic cabling and signals all or most of the way to the end user. Depending on where the PON terminates, the system can be described as fiber to the curb, fiber to the building or fiber to the home.

Now, there are different types of passive optical network's (PON's) such as;

APON which is ATM Passive Optical Networks.

BPON which is Broadband PON.

EPON which is Ethernet PON.

GE-PON which means Gigabit Ethernet PON.

GPON which means Gigabit Ethernet PON.

Looking at the options and comparing with the definition of passive optical network's (PON's), we can say that all the statements are correct.

The missing options are;

a. PONS does not require the use of active amplification between the CO to the subscriber

b. PONS operates over SMF optical cables

c. PONS uses passive splitters to distribute signals to subscribers

d. the PONS ONT located at the subscribers location is owned and operated by the service provider

e. all statements are correct
