LOOKING BEYOND THE 10G PON HORIZON
While XGS-PON (10G) is fiber broadband’s latest standard, momentum is growing for 25, 50, and 100G PON. During this panel, we’ll discuss what lies ahead and consider what this means for traditional telcos with an embedded PON base and cable MSOs considering PON for Greenfield and Brownfield environments.

SIZING UP THE COHERENT OPTICAL TRANSPORT OPPORTUNITY
As service providers look to optimize their IP and Optical network resources, coherent transceiver technologies allow them to increase capacity and efficiency while reducing cost and power consumption. A new generation of coherent products has overcome the barriers to deploying IP over DWDM in data centers and metro networks. This panel will examine how to construct a cost-effective IP Optical network.

TAKING THE PULSE ON CO-PACKAGED OPTICS
Co-packaged optics have gained interest as they enable the integration of optical components directly
into a switch ASIC package intending to address next generation bandwidth and power challenges. A recent CIR market forecast revealed that the co-packaged optics modules market will reach $5.5 billion in 2027, including NPO products. Join us as we discuss the state of the co-packaged optics market and cover initial applications.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR PLUGGABLE TRANSCEIVERS?
400ZR/ZR+ transceivers promise to reshape the market, with the ZR/ZR+ concept moving toward 100G and the OIF embarking on new 800G specifications. Panelists on this roundtable will discuss what we can expect and when.

NEW DATA CENTER INTERCONNECTION EVOLUTION
The data center interconnect space continues to evolve rapidly. What will 2024 hold in the way of new technologies and trends?

AI’S OPTICAL CONNECTION
The rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is driving new demands across the data networking, optical, fiber, and data center segments. During this discussion, we’ll consider how the growth of AI is influencing the development and ongoing evolution of the optical industry.

NEW FIBER CABLING INNOVATIONS
Hollow core fiber and intermittently bonded ribbon (IBR) present new options for data center providers to reduce latency and improve network performance. Hollow core fibers are designed to guide light without a solid core material to transmit data faster and more efficiently than conventional optical fibers. At the same time, IBR cable consists of groupings of optical fibers that are intelligently bonded at specific points throughout the length.
