multiplexing (DWDM) long-reach passive optical networks (PONs) can support the reduction
of nodes and network interfaces by enabling a fully meshed flat optical core. In this paper,
we demonstrate the flexibility of the TDM-DWDM PON architecture, which can enable the
convergence of multiple service types on a single physical layer. Heterogeneous services
