Thursday - Pluggable Coherent
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now Spanning the Entire Network
Coupled with new hardware that makes them easier to deploy in existing networks, operators can extend pluggables from metro to regional and selected long-haul applications.
|
|
Join experts from Colt, Brightspeed, Lumentum, and Nokia to examine core pluggable coherent technology, deployment choices, tradeoffs, and what’s next on the 1.6T roadmap. Can't make it? Register and get the slides.

Pluggable transceivers are transforming optical transport and steadily replacing embedded optics. Hyperscalers created this trend with IP-over-DWDM using 400ZRx pluggables, leading to high volumes, low cost, and near performance parity with non-pluggable solutions. Pluggable transponders extend these benefits to traditional optical transport hardware and Service Provider operational practices.
