Challenges, progress & uncertainties facing the optical component industry
Friday, March 2, 2012 at 3:37PM
In recent years the industry has moved from direct detection to coherent transmission and has alighted on a flexible ROADM architecture. The result is a new level in optical networking sophistication. OFC/NFOEC 2012 will showcase the progress in these and other areas of industry consensus as well as shining a spotlight on issues less clear.
Optical component players may be forgiven for the odd envious glance towards the semiconductor industry and its well-defined industry dynamics.
