Much is currently being said about the development of optical networks as an applicable transmission medium for communications that meet the demand for larger bands of residential users and micro and small business owners. Among all available technologies, one of the most outstanding is the GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network). However, whenever a new technological standard arises, it is usually accompanied by high costs and lack of knowledge of its particularities. For this, the present work has the objective of showing the process of GPON network deployment, showing its characteristics and making a parallel with the costs of ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line), which is still today the most widespread technology for broadband access. The study was carried out in the follow-up of a real case of GPON implantation in the city of Uberaba by the company Algar Telecom. The results showed that the cost of installing such a network is already approximately 14% lower than ADSL costs, and even with its equipment at the same price, it offers a 5 times higher bandwidth offer with an increase of up to 71,5% in revenue from this service. It is concluded that GPON is a highly commercially viable technology, in addition to being conceptually simpler.
