SUMMARY:Webinar:  Breaking the optical glass ceiling: the path to terabit optical networks
DESCRIPTION:Successive rounds of optical innovation and investment have delivered higher capacity networks with significantly decreased cost-per-bit transmitted. Moving forward\, as we approach Shannon’s limit\, gains are becoming more incremental\, and reducing cost-per-bit is becoming more challenging. As an industry\, will we be able to break through the optical glass ceiling to get to terabit optical networks? What technologies and approaches will enable the next step forward? Join this webinar to learn more about the different evolution vectors being explored on the path to terabit optical networks. Acacia will be presenting in the workshop titled\, “Designing the next generation Open Optical Network” \nRegister
