Summary:A Distribution Point Unit (DPU) communicating voice configuration data between Element Management System, Fibre to the Home network (FTTH EMS) and one or more ATA modules within a Fibre to the Distribution Point (FTTdp) network, wherein a processor interfaced with an optical network controller, an electrical network controller, and the memory; the processor presents to the FTTH EMS, the DPU as an Optical Network Terminal (ONT) of a FTTH network; the processor maintains in a memory one or more virtual voice ports; each virtual voice port is mappable to one of electrical ports, and the processor informs the FTTH EMS, via the FTTH control protocol, a distinct voice port for each virtual voice ports; maintain a mapping between the virtual voice ports and the electrical ports; receive a voice configuration message and a corresponding voice port identifier according to the FTTH control protocol and identify corresponding virtual voice port; determine a particular electrical port associated with identified virtual voice port based on mapping; communicate the voice configuration message to an NTD associated with the determined electrical port.
