    Abstract: A method for increasing the capacity of a passive optical network. The passive optical network includes an existing multi-service terminal having a plurality of hardened fiber optic drop ports, and also includes an optical line terminal that provides service to the existing multi-service terminal. The method includes upgrading the optical line terminal to support at least 10GPON and to have increased launch power and enhanced loss sensitivity. The method also includes adding a passive optical splitter between the optical line terminal and the existing multi-service terminal, connecting the existing multi-service terminal to a first output of the passive optical splitter, and connecting an expansion multi-service terminal to a second output of the passive optical splitter.
