Fibre to the premises

Dovetail_MD

We are thinking of buying a USG60W-EU0102F and need a wireless extension over ethernet and a connection to a fibre to the premises incoming service that also presents over ethernet

Does Excel sell a vanilla ADSL router similar to the Vigor 130?

Thank you all - now sorted with a call from a local representative

Oh dear - voice dictation – apologies - this should read.......

Does Zyxel sell a vanilla ADSL router similar to the Vigor 130?

Hi @Dovetail_MD
a USG60W is a NextGeneration Firewall and Router Device without a embedded modem

For connection with your ISP, e.g. you require a modem with fibre IN and wired RJ45 OUT to the WAN port at the USG (e.g. your ISP serve a modem to get connected with "non-fibre" firewalls/router devices

Thank you for that - but we knew that so that's why we were asking the question above

Hi Dovetail_MD
Welcome to Zyxel community

There are various DSL routers which should fulfill your requirements.

May we know which country are you from? 

We can have our local support to contact with you and suggest the most suitable model in your region.

Thank you for your response most of these look like ADSL modems and routers together which allow the individual device both to connect to the incoming side of the fibre and login to the Internet account which we have.

Would it be one of these that I need?

@Zyxel_Stanley
can you check, is the GON in my link (a smaller one) working at the WAN port at a USG ?

A USG60W has WLAN on Board and why should a GPON have also a WLAN on Board ?

Please translate  -  what is a GON?

Also what is GPON?

Hi @Dovetail_MD
sorry, I actually (not intentionally) swallowed a letter - GON should be the GPON. - my mistake.

Some information about G/PON

GPON
Over the years, various PON (Passive Optical Networks) standards have been developed.

The typical PON arrangement is a point to multi-point (P2MP) network where a central optical line terminal (OLT) at the service provider’s facility distributes TV or Internet service to as many as 16 to 128 customers per fiber line.
GPON uses optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) so a single fiber can be used for both downstream and upstream data. A laser on a wavelength (λ) of 1490 nm transmits downstream data. Upstream data transmits on a wavelength of 1310 nm. If TV is being distributed, a wavelength of 1550 nm is used.

While each ONU gets the full downstream rate of 2.488 Gbits/s, GPON uses a time division multiple access (TDMA) format to allocate a specific timeslot to each user. This divides the bandwidth so each user gets a fraction such as 100 Mbits/s depending upon how the service provider allocates it.

Zyxel’s Fiber Access solution provides versatile fiber connectivity for service providers according to the deployment requirements. Service providers can highly optimize and integrate various FTTx applications with the freedom to deploy services easily on GPON, GEPON, Active Fiber solutions with OLT, ONU/ONT and active fiber gateways.

You wrote "need a wireless extension over ethernet and a connection to a fibre to the premises incoming service that also presents over ethernet".
Show the graphic your requirement ? the indoor Router is the USG in your szenario.

If it's correct @Zyxel_Stanley please re-validate the possible solution.

Hi @Dovetail_MD

Per your requirement, it’s our suggestion that you may consider “ONT/PMG” models in your environment.
