Time for PLDT Fiberhome ONU/ONT Replacement

 Today I wanted to share to my reader on how-to retired my PLDT Fiberhome ONU/ONT AN5506-04-FA device, its has been there for couples of years that I wish to get rid of it and replace with SFP module that will work for my project. Googling on the net to find docs and most of all can get the most affordable SFP module that I can substitute for my ONT/ONU.

Not just for the SFP module price is cheaper but also it will works on a budget giga Media Converter, on a giga SC switch, or on the MikroTik Hex but like on a pfSense micro ITX box. After Googling sometime I found ZISA OP151S is the most best that suit for my needs but sadly the SFP module manufacturer is no longer active duplicating the said sfp. ZISA OP151S makes it handy for having a web graphical user interface to interact the device module itself and a command line interface to tune up the settings that you need.

Luckily, after Googling again sometime on the net I found similar SFP module that ZISA OP151S does everything do. The GPON SFP stick is from Usource Technology its DFP-34G-2C2 if you want to try searching on the net. What makes this GPON SFP stick even more better than ZISA OP151S its already a ONT/ONU on a STICK, you can plug it directly to a giga Media Converter, SC Switch with sfp port, to a MikroTik giga Switch or to a running pfSense mini ITX box just add a Chelso PCI card with SFP module port.


The GPON SFP module Stick DFP-34G-2C2 ONT/ONU  is base on a SoC ARM v7 (ZX279125) running at 600Mhz and nearly 1200 bogomips, with 32Mb integrated RAM and a 16Mb of external (SPI?) flash (source) running Linux ZTE flavour 2.6.32 in a SFP form factor. You may like to see the datasheet here.

To be able to configure it there has to be some link in the optical connection, otherwise the SFP interface in your switch/router might not linkup and the SFP internal IP might not be reachable.

The default connection info is as follows:

    IP: 192.168.1.1

    VLAN: 1

    URL: http://192.168.1.1

    User: admin

    Pass: admin

In its web GUI you can configure PON settings and even routing mode. By default, there is no WAN connection (this means there’s no routing mode, only bridge with all vlans through the SFP interface port). You can make the SFP a router to route you house/office traffic by making a WAN connection but I prefer to keep it as bridge.

Once in the web configuration page we can configure LOID, SN and their passwords as per our ISP requirements:



There is also telnet access with the following credentials:

    User: root

    Pass: Pon521

Telnet access is for Linux advanced users and is not recommended to tamper with.

The GPON SFP module stick DFP-34G-2C2 can get purchase online via AliExpress online store.

Sir gumana ba sa mikrotik with DFP-34G-2C2? serial lang kailangan palitan?

yes dfp-34g-2c2 or dfp-34x-2c2 is an SFP but also a mini ONT/ONT sfp that work on mikrotik that has sfp port, it even works on media converter. DFP-34G-2C2 have its on web graphical user interface were you can edit the MAC and the SN of your ISP ONT/ONU.

sir applicable din ba ito sa converge? and maliban sa serial na i cclone ko may iba pa bang need?

Hello Sir, will this help me see may PLDT FIbr UNO credentials? Paano ko mapalaitana ng LOID at SN, dahil na try ko pong pindutin sa PLDT Fibr pero hindi ko makita ang LOID, will this automatically see the LOID assigned to my ONT?

sir pede eto sa converge? EG8145V5? maclone po nya?

Hi sir, can you share po on where can you buy this sfp?

Ano ba tong pakitong na to, di naman nagrereply sa mga tanong ng mga tao about configuring this SFP module! Tagalog ka ba pakitong o ano?!

Please pakitong, I need your help making this PON stick work for my PLDT Fibr subscription (using HG2645D RP2740 now). I tried cloning the SN but it's stuck at O3 ONU state.
