100G Deployments

Event type: Panel

Room number: 515A

Organizer: Frank Chang, Vitesse, USA


Description:

With 100G transport and 100GbE standards work complete, the stage of 100G has moved from the labs, and field trials into a commercial reality. The deployments of 100G are ramping up globally aiming for expanded capacity at lower bit cost. This technical panel will bring industry experts to incite discussions regarding the needs, applications, adoption and deployment of the commercially available next-gen 100G solutions for the metro, regional and long-haul backbone networks. Potential topics will focus on 100G technologies, solutions, and deployment issues associated with modulation schemes such as DP-QPSK, coherent detection, advanced electronic DSP techniques, enhanced FEC and OTN, plus the critical IC and/or PIC implementations. Interested participants are encouraged to contact the organizer, or bring slides and/or questions to the forum.
