Session: Powering the Optical Network to build Internet of the future

Driven by the latest technologies such as AR/VR, IoT, 5G, and AI, the world of today is facing exponentially increasing bandwidth demands. To future-proof these emerging technologies, connectivity is the key and optical networks are the foundation.

But what if in the optical network,
- the power of channels is not suited for the best performance.
- the target gain for optical amplifiers is not computed as required.

Such scenarios will cause network degradation and loss of revenue. Join this session for an overview of the optical applications in C+L Band Wavelength Division Multiplexing transmission. The session will cover insights into choosing the right solutions to ensure signal quality in data transmission over optical fibers. Let’s take a deep dive into building the internet of the future.


Key Takeaways

  • Drivers behind high bandwidth requirements in today’s world.
  • Why C+L band solutions are required?
  • Choosing the right platform that will future-proof optical transport networks.
  • Performance characteristics required to design optical networks and maintain traffic over the link.
