This symposium focuses on two important areas of innovation for the coming years\, each at different levels of maturity. \nGlobally\, 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. \nCoherent pluggables have come a long way since the first 400ZR modules were introduced in late 2019. The development of ZR+ modules and open specifications for longer reach\, and more flexible applications\, has added to the attraction of coherent pluggable modules for use in data center interconnect\, metro and even long-haul networks. \nAs the second generation of coherent pluggables are being deployed in Networks\, this session will explore the opportunities and challenges for service providers both today\, and into the future. \nThis session will address: \n\nCoherent pluggables today and the state of disaggregation.\nPushing coherent pluggable boundaries 800G ZR+ and Open ROADM\nInteroperability\, automation and the role of AI\nThe future of coherent pluggables including 1600ZR and 1600ZR+\n\nSpeakers\n\nSimon Stanley\, Analyst at Large\, Components & Subsystems\, Heavy Reading\nMoran Roth\, Director\, Product Management\, Juniper\nMarc Stiller\, VP Product Line Management\, Lumentum\nAnuj Malik\, Director\, Product Management and Strategy\, Acacia\n\nClick Here to Register URL:https://acacia-inc.com/event/light-reading-optical-networking-digital-symposium/ LOCATION:Virtual Event\, Virtual Event CATEGORIES:Event,Webinar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://acacia-inc.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Slide1.jpeg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
