Enroll in this session to learn why network providers are increasingly moving towards a more agile photonic layer to better scale their networks for higher capacity while reducing energy consumption and cost. You’ll dissect the importance of key elements such as ROADMs and Layer 0 control plane and learn how they’re being deployed in innovative ways in example networks today through our ‘show-and-tell’ period of the agenda.
