What started out as an initiative to develop a standardized, compact and efficient coherent pluggable module for data center interconnects has spawned an ever-expanding ecosystem of solutions that are redefining carrier network architectures. The 7nm DSPs and optics developed to support 400ZR pluggable modules are being configured in ZR+ modules to support significantly longer distances […]
Heavy Reading’s Accelerating Open RAN Platforms Operator Survey
This white paper written by Simon Stanley presents the key findings from the Heavy Reading “Accelerating Open RAN Platforms Survey,” conducted in March and April 2021. The combination of 5G and open RAN is driving significant opportunities for carriers and enterprises to upgrade and enhance their wireless networks without being tied to legacy equipment and […]
