From 25/100G to 400/600G: A Competitive Analysis of Optical Modules & Components
Global communications networks are changing dramatically. High-speed mobile access and cloud services are driving massive bandwidth demand from users. Virtualization is changing the network, with application servers and many of the network functions themselves hosted in large data centers. Hyperscale data center operators and service providers are installing 100 Gbit/s (100G) connections across their networks, […]
5G World
ExCeL, London Simon Stanley will be at 5G World on Wednesday 14th June 2017. 5G World is the only global 5G focused high level conference. Operators are already looking to 5G to help deliver the services expected in 2020 and beyond and 5G World 2017 will bring together telecom operators, solution providers and IoT specialists, to help […]
NFV Made Efficient: Living at the Edge
Virtualizing network functions between the network core and customer edge, with dynamic and distributed capability driven by zero-touch automation, is the ultimate goal of service providers seeking to deliver greater flexibility and agility in new revenue-generating services. Configuring, monitoring and maintaining this automation remotely at scale is key, and puts high requirements on both policy-based […]
From Sensors to Servers: NFV Collaboration Within the ARM Ecosystem
Light Reading BCE, Austin Convention Center, Austin, TX. Room 10AB In a heterogeneous value chain from sensors to edge to cloud, a wide range of use cases and workload-optimized solutions are required to realize the vision of a converged virtualized infrastructure. Those within the ARM ecosystem discuss the critical need to make it easier for […]
Connecting the Data Center: 25G, 100G and 400G+
Light Reading BCE, Austin Convention Center, Austin, TX. Room 10AB Server performance and data center network traffic are growing dramatically. The traditional data center network architecture is being challenged by innovative approaches using both standardized and proprietary interconnects between servers and switches, and within the systems. New technologies becoming available include advanced modulations, high speed […]
Next-Generation Platforms for Telecom Cloud Services
Telecom services are shifting to a cloud infrastructure, in which new services can be rapidly provisioned by deploying virtual network functions (VNFs) instead of physical boxes. This dramatically reduces the operating cost of carrier networks and allows carriers to invest in new infrastructure as revenue grows. To gain the full benefit of this new cloud […]

ON2020: Driving Innovative Optical Network Solutions
As the optical networking community gathers at OFC’17 in Los Angeles, we are seeing an unprecedented number of new technologies and solutions being developed and there is a compelling need for companies to work together to ensure that the combination of these innovative optical network solutions meets network operator demands. Optical Network 2020 has recently […]
Switching Redefined for the Virtual Network
The shift to cloud services and virtual networks has made data center switches — and the switch devices used in them — key to delivering maximum network performance and service flexibility. Maximum network performance requires low latency switches with 25Gbit/s serial interfaces and 25GE and 100GE ports. Maximum service flexibility requires switches with support for […]
