Tuesday 24 th September – Guest Session Disaggregated Transport Networks Telecom Infra Project The Disaggregated Transport Network Speaker: Victor Lopez Alvarez, TIP Time: 09:45 This session will provide a brief technical overview of the disaggregated technologies that the Open Optical & Packet Transport Project Group is currently developing as part of the Telecom Infra Project and how those technologies are meeting the different requirements and use cases from operators today. We will also cover the ongoing trials with disaggregated and open optical solutions with operators and vendors working together. Program Format and/or Agenda We will cover three tracks with different speakers covering different technologies and initiatives in our OOPT Project Group
Monday 23 rd - Afternoon Fibre Access FTTH Council The State of Fibre and key market trends Speaker: Kees de Waard, President, FTTH Council Time: 14:30 The presentation will firstly include an overview of the fibre market with figures of our latest FTTH/B Market Panorama. The Market Panorama gives a detailed status on the market for FTTH/B in 39 countries. It particularly focuses on FTTH deployment and rollout and highlights the leading countries involved. It also provides the latest update of the European FTTH/B ranking which reflects the status of fibre coverage and take-up rate in Europe. The presentation will also touch upon the issues of copper switch-off or fibre/5G convergence. Source Photonics Challenges in 5G Optical Interfaces and Modules Speaker: Manish Mehta EVP, PLM Time: 15:05 Emerging applications requiring 5G connectivity will introduce network challenges demanding an increase in architecture flexibility. Since deployment of 5G networks began this year, the industry has already released a larger portfolio of optical transceivers serving front-haul and mid-haul requirements than was previously released in six years of LTE deployments. These enabling 5G optical interfaces vary in terms of protocol, data rate, reach requirements, PAM4 vs NRZ, bidirectional vs. unidirectional, and gray vs. colored, to just name a few. Rapid volume growth of 25G and even 50G interfaces will introduce new challenges in performance and temperature requirements for 25G grade lasers. Emerging aggregation needs are also driving proliferation of advanced 100G and beyond optical requirements. We will review the state- of-the art higher speed laser technologies along with various optical interfaces expected to be deployed for 5G front-haul and mid-haul architectures and applications. Infinera Innovation in Digital Sub-Carrier Technology: Redefining Optical Network Architectures Speaker: Dr. David Welch, Co-Founder and Chief Innovation Office, Infinera Time: 15:40 Access networks span a wide range of high-volume applications, all undergoing fundamental re-architecture and capacity expansion to accommodate bandwidth growth and new technologies. From wireless 5G xHaul, cable DAA/deep fiber, 100G NG-PON backhaul, and business services, access networks require point-to-multipoint connectivity from core/hub nodes to many edge/access locations. To date, this has been delivered by point-point optics, limited reach (typically <100km), and generational incompatibility between successive optic speeds (ie: 1G ≠ 2.5G ≠ 10G and so on). We introduce a new paradigm for next-gen access optical transport; one that enables highly efficient software- configurable and network-aware bandwidth to the network edge, high- density point-to-multipoint connectivity, and the optical reach of coherent optics; enabling simpler and more dynamic access service delivery. Nokia NG PON and 5G Speaker: Ed Harstead Lead Technology Strategist, Chief Technology Office, Fixed Networks Time: 16:15 Massively deployed TDM PON technologies have followed a predictable evolution: ever-increasing speeds from BPON to EPON to GPON and now 10G PONs. The next step will be 25G and 50G PONs, and as usual there is overlapping standardization in IEEE and ITU-T. While PONs have been deployed almost exclusively for FTTH, the anticipation of 5G densification focuses attention on mobile transport. Can TDM PONs support the requirements for 5G backhaul, midhaul and fronthaul? Doubts about the suitability for fronthaul have recently renewed interest in various flavors of WDM PONs. This talk will sort out the required components, the practicality and the timelines for these proliferating PON technologies.

We believe that accelerating innovation coupled with new business approaches and cost efficiencies will help the industry build the networks of the future and create business opportunities for new and existing companies, alike. TIP has a diverse Membership made up of over 500 Member organizations, including operators, technology providers, developers, integrators, startups, and a range of other entities inside and outside the traditional telco space. Our Members are at the core of our work. Members from all backgrounds are coming together to build a vibrant, collaborative telecom ecosystem. We rely on active participation from our Members to contribute new ideas and constantly iterate on those ideas to make them better. Together, we believe we can build the telecom infrastructure of the future.
