A subscriber interface device and method for transmitting a communication
signal and a broadcasting signal to each subscriber in a
communication-broadcasting convergence FTTH system. A subscriber
interface, positioned in the ONU, modulates a first predetermined number
of broadcasting signals selected by a subscriber among broadcasting
signals received from an OLT, combines a baseband communication signal
received from the OLT with the modulated broadcasting signals, and
optically transmits the combined communication-broadcasting signal. A
subscriber interface receiver positioned in an ONT, splits the combined
communication-broadcasting signal, filters the split signals to
respective frequency bands, modulates the filtered broadcasting signals,
transmits the modulated broadcasting signals to a monitor of the
subscriber, and transmits the filtered communication signal as a baseband
signal to a communication terminal of the subscriber instead of a
passband signal.
