Optical networking is hitting an inflection point as coherent innovation splits on two different, but equally important, axes. On one axis, embedded optics drives capacity toward 1 Tbit/s per wavelength as the laws of physics brush up against maximum channel capacity as defined by the Shannon limit. On the other axis, compact pluggable optics are converging at 400Gbit/s transmission, the data rate that is set to play a dominant role in optical networks over the next decade. In this special webinar, Heavy Reading will be joined by leading experts from Cisco, Infinera and Juniper to unveil key f...
