10G-PON
10G-PON ( also known as XG-PON ) is a 2010 computer networking standard for data links , capable of delivering shared Internet access rates up to 10 Gbit/s ( gigabits per second ) over existing dark fiber . This is the ITU-T 's next generation standard following on from G-PON or Gigabit-capable PON . Optical fibre is shared by many subscribers in a network known as FTTx in a way that centralises most of the telecommunications equipment , often displacing copper phone lines that connect premises to the phone exchange . Passive optical network ( PON ) architecture has become a cost-effective way to meet performance demands in access networks , and sometimes also in large optical local networks for `` Fibre-to-the-desk '' . Passive optical networks are used for the `` Fibre-to-the-home '' or `` Fibre-to-the-premises '' last mile with splitters that connect each central transmitter to many subscribers . The 10 Gbit/s shared capacity is the downstream speed broadcast to all users connected to the same PON , and the 2.5 Gbit/s upstream speed uses multiplexing techniques to prevent data frames from interfering with each other . Users have a network device that converts optical signals to the signals used in building wiring , such as Ethernet and wired analogue plain old telephone service .

Section A played their second rounds on the second afternoon , while sections B and C played their second rounds on the third day . By the start of the contest the number of contestants had been reduced to 222 , with 4 withdrawals . On the first day the Irish professional Michael Moran had the best round with a 72 .

'' Play was somewhat easier on the second morning and the amateur Edward Blackwell led after a round of 71 with Moran joined on 72 by J.H. Taylor . Of those in Section A , Ted Ray led after the second day with a score of 148 . The Committee replied to the professionals `` The Green Committee consider that in deciding to cut fresh holes each day they had adopted the best course possible under the terms of the competition , which were exceptional owing to the large entry , and though they regret that there was any dissatisfaction amongst the players , they decided that the protest could not be upheld . '' New holes were again cut on the third morning , so that Sections B and C played their second round to different holes to Section A. George Duncan led after two rounds with a score of 144 , four ahead of Ray , Taylor and Vardon on 148 . The leading 60 players and ties played 36 holes on the fourth day .

Massy led the playoff after 10 holes but a 6 at the 14th and a disastrous 7 at the 17 meant that Vardon led by 5 after the first round . The lead extended to 7 after 27 holes and 10 after 34 holes . After Vardon reached the green in two at the 35th and Massy was in thick rough after two shots , Massy picked up his ball and conceded .
