A Huawei GPFD board is a high-density, 16-port GPON OLT (Optical Line Terminal) interface card for Huawei's SmartAX OLT systems (like MA5680T, MA5683T, and MA5608T), enabling ultra-broadband access for Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks, offering up to 1:128 split ratio with SFP modules (B+/C+/C++) for delivering data, VoIP, and IPTV services to many users from a single board.
The GPFD board cards supplied by MF-Telecom come with C+ modules as standard. Should you require B+ or C++ modules instead, please request a customized quote or reach out to sales@mf-telecom.com.
Product Features
16 GPON Ports: Provides dense subscriber connectivity using standard SC/PC connectors.
Modular Design: Accepts various SFP modules (B+, C+, C++) to match network requirements and split ratios (e.g., 1:64, 1:128).
OLT Integration: Works with Huawei OLTs (MA5600T series) for unified management.
Signal Conversion: Converts optical signals to Ethernet messages for network processing.
Management: Handles software loading, operation control, and power supply for its modules.
Performance: Supports high data rates (2.49G/1.24G) and long distances (up to 20km).
Application Scenarios
Large-Scale Residential FTTH Deployment for Global Carriers
A leading European telecom operator leverages the Huawei GPFD GPON board in its Huawei MA5680T OLTs to upgrade its FTTH network, targeting 500,000 residential users across major cities. With 16 high-density ports per board and 1:128 splitting ratio, each OLT chassis (equipped with 8 GPFD boards) efficiently covers 10,240 users, minimizing chassis space and deployment costs. The board’s support for B+/C+/C++ optical modules adapts to diverse distance requirements (up to 20km for C++ class), while seamless integration of broadband, IPTV, and VoIP services with fine-grained QoS ensures stable user experience. Its low power consumption and compatibility with unified O&M systems further reduce long-term operational overhead, accelerating the operator’s gigabit network rollout.

FAQ
Q: What distinguishes the GPFD board from the GPBD board? A: The primary difference lies in port capacity: the GPFD is a 16-port GPON board, while the GPBD is an 8-port GPON board.
Q: Are there any OLT software version requirements for the GPFD board? A: Yes. Most common versions, such as V8R11, V8R13, and V8R15, support the GPFD board. However, ensure your OLT software includes the corresponding IO packet for your specific GPFD board version—for instance, the IO packets for H803GPFD and H805GPFD differ.
Q: Does the GPFD board come with GPON SFP modules included? A: Yes, 16 C+ class SFP modules are provided free of charge with the GPFD board.
Q: Is double splitting feasible with the GPFD board? A: Yes, double splitting is allowed, provided that the optical power remains within the acceptable range of the receiving end.
Q: Can third-party ONTs be used with the GPFD board? A: We do not recommend using third-party ONTs. Vendors may have varying interpretations of the TR069/OMCI protocols, which could lead to compatibility problems.
Q: What is the power consumption range of the GPFD board? A: The power consumption of the GPFD board is between 45W and 73W.
No, GPFD is only compatible with MA5600T series OLT. If you are using the MA5800 series, it is recommended that you use GPUF, GPHF, GPSF, and GPLF boards.
What is the difference between GPFD and GPBD?
The GPBD only supports 8 ports and a maximum of 8*128=1024 subscribers; the GPFD supports 16 ports and 2024 subscribers.
Is the GPFD brand new?
Since the MA5600T has been discontinued, most GPFDs are in used condition. If you need a brand new one, please contact us to check the stock.
