## TL;DR

This paper demonstrates the real-time transmission of a virtualized RAN split interface over a commercial XGS-PON system, analyzing the effects of dynamic bandwidth allocation and packet jitter on performance.

## Contribution

It provides the first experimental assessment of PDCP-RLC split interface transmission over XGS-PON, including the impact of DBA and jitter on network performance.

## Key findings

- DBA impacts uplink transmission performance
- Packet jitter affects downlink quality
- Real-time transmission over XGS-PON is feasible

## Abstract

In this work, we experimentally assess the transmission of a PDCP-RLC virtualised RAN split interface through a commercial XGS-PON system. We investigate the impacts of DBA on the uplink and packet jitter on the downlink.
