The Journey to Optimize Converged IP and Optical

Tuesday, 01 April, 16:00 – 17:00

Theater I

Whether you call it IP over DWDM, Routed Optical Networking, Coherent routing, Converged Optical Routing Architecture, or Router-based Coherent Optics, converging IP and Optical has created a profound shift in markets and network architectures.  It promises lower space, power, and cost, higher reliability, and multi-layer coordination. Has it been delivered? Many would argue that it has become mainstream. This panel will discuss the phases, potential pitfalls, results, and the latest innovations in coherent optics that enable the converged architecture.
