Growing bandwidths across wireless and wireline access networks, together with the massive expansion of generative AI, are driving ever greater demands across service provider metro, regional and long-haul networks. The introduction of 1.2T and 1.6T coherent optical interfaces has enabled higher capacity per channel but reduced the number of channels per band. Finding the optimal […]
Optical Networking Digital Symposium: Driving Coherent Pluggables Across Data Centers and Metro Networks
Globally, operators are under tremendous pressure to boost revenues, a requirement that is becoming particularly urgent as operators invest heavily in networks and spectrum licenses for 5G. Transport networks have a vital role to play in differentiated services and new revenue opportunities supporting 5G mobility and the edge and underpinning advanced wireline services. Coherent pluggables […]
Optimizing Metro, Long Haul, and Subsea Networks with 130+ Gbaud Coherent Connections
Optical Networking Day 1 Session 1 – Optimizing Metro, Long Haul, and Subsea Networks with 130+ Gbaud Coherent Connections Since the introduction of coherent technology, symbol rates have continually risen enabling higher transmission bandwidths over longer distances. The introduction of 90 Gbaud coherent systems in 2020 proved to be a significant development enabling 800G and […]
Extending the Performance of Coherent Pluggables for DCI and Metro Networks
With 400ZR commercial rollouts underway, many are focused 800G as the next step to scale. But coherent pluggable optics are also scaling down to 100 Gbit/s data rates as operators find a need for small form factor coherent pluggable in edge and access networks and to be housed in a multitude of networking devices, including […]
ECOC Exhibition and Conference 2023
Glasgow, Scotland Simon Stanley will be at ECOC 2023 on the Tuesday and Wednesday. ECOC is the largest conference and exhibition on optical communications in Europe. Please let us know if you would like to set up a meeting.
Optical Networking Digital Symposium Day 2 Session 2: Expanding the Metro, Regional, and Long-Haul, Capacity and Reach – September 14, 2023
As 800G upgrades are rolling out across the globe we will explore the opportunities and challenges presented by these developments. Topics will include:
Optical Networking Digital Symposium Day 1 Session 1: Coherent Pluggables – The Next Chapter
In this session, we will explore the challenges and the latest developments for both direct optical connections and coherent routing. Topics will include:
The Road to 800G and 1.6T in the Data Center
As the industry gears up for the introduction of 51.2 Tbit/s switches attention is focusing on the next generation of optics in data centers. The first 800G pluggable optical modules are being tested and solutions for 1.6T are in development. QSFP-DD and OSFP form factors were game changers for 400G client optics in the data […]
Optical Networking Digital Symposium: Where Next for Coherent Pluggable Optics?
The deployment of pluggable coherent optical modules has enabled service providers to re-architect their DCI and metro optical networks. These modules can be plugged directly into switches and routers, removing the need for dedicated optical transport systems and enabling the transport of IP traffic directly over DWDM with the use of open line systems (IPoDWDM). […]
Cloud Infrastructure and Operations for Open RAN
Open RAN introduces new opportunities to deploy RAN on cloud infrastructure. This session discusses how open RAN technology enables cloud RAN architectures to better support resource multiplexing, advanced radio resource management, programmability, and automated operations. As part of the Light Reading Open RAN Summit, this session will address:• Status of cloud native CU and DU […]
