==Summary==
This page has information about the CityFibre provided ONT - the box that connects the CityFibre connection to your own router. ONT stands for Optical Network Terminal, sometimes (mistakenly) called a modem.
* In short, the ONT in installed inside the customer's premises by CityFibre and converts the fibre connection from the outside world in to a RJ45 port which you plug in to your router with a CAT5 cable.
* The ONT requires power, and a UPS is recommended, see our [[VoIP_Power]] page for suggestions.
* For help with router configuration for CityFibre connections, please see: [[General_Router_Settings#CityFibre_FTTP|General Router Settings page]]
* The ONT is a 'Calix 801G GigaPoint v2' device and measures 10.16x2.07x3.25cm (WxHxD).
=Devices=
Depending on the service, there are a number of possible ONT models that CityFibre will install.
Here is a table of the services that CityFibre offer, along with the ONT and some other information. Note - A&A may not offer all of these service options, this is just for information about the ONT provided.

As of June 2023, only the 160M and 1G services using GPON are available, faster than 1G are subject to availability and may not be offered by A&A.

===Overview - Calix Gigapoint 801G - 1G services===
The Calix Gigapoint 801G is the main ONT used in installs up to and during 2023. This is used for most of the 160M and 1G services. This is a GPON device, and can support speeds up to 1Gb/s
There are four LEDs on the CityFibre ONT:
===MTU===
*Can pass Jumbo frames (up to 1900 bytes, but that's way higher than what's needed to pass 1500 byte packets inside of PPPoE) - so if your router supports RFC4638 (see [[MTU|1500 byte MTU]]) in PPP, then you can pass 1500 byte packets
PING 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1) 1472(1500) bytes of data.
1480 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=59 time=4.97 ms
* Power: 5 W, Peak Power: 7 W
* PSU/connector: 12V DC 0.5A, tip positive.
=Outdoor Junction box=
[[File:CF-BT-Outside-spice-boxes.jpg|thumb|alt=CityFibre and Openreach outdoor Junction box|Outdoor Junction Box]]
CityFibre will usually install a junction box on the outside of the property. This connects up the fibre from the street to the fibre that goes inside the property.
This is a passive device, doesn't require power, and is just used to connect the two fibres together. The photo shows both a Brown CityFibre unit and a Grey Openreach unit.
