18TH JUNE 2013, GRIMALDI FORUM, MONACO

Welcome to the 15th Annual WDM & Next Generation Optical Networking“Amidst a challenging economy and slower spending at all of the larger service providers, the WDM optical market appears to be holding its own. Total metro and long-haul WDM applications grew 14 percent yea-over-year in 3Q 2012” source Dell’Oro

600 professionals from the telecoms optical ecosystem gathered at WDM & Next Generation Optical Networking 2012 and the buzz was all about the 100G Optical Reboot, and looking beyond 100G. A year forward, traffic volumes are still increasing at huge rates (estimates are that worldwide IP traffic will reach an annual run rate of 1.3 zettabytes by the end of 2016) and speed is a factor for all service providers today: the speed of the network and the speed with which new services can be brought to market. The discussion in 2013 focuses on the massive technical challenges the industry faces to deliver higher speeds – 400G & 1T – making sure networks are fast enough to handle the current and anticipated traffic demands. The rate of growth has placed service providers in a cost-capacity crunch with the investments in network upgrades and new builds having a high price tag, with disproportionate revenues returned. To ensure their networks can scale to meet the bandwidth demand, service providers are looking to monetise them and to adopt the most efficient, flexible and cost-effective means of transporting traffic. To achieve an optimal & economical next generation optical network fit for purpose, the leading international service providers (network operators, data centre, internet exchanges, education & public), solution providers and analysts debate, discuss, demo and present the following topics during a packed 4 days:

· Economising next generation optical networks including the practical evolution of legacy networks· Next generation OTN evolution· Optimisation, multilayer restoration and service provision· 100G deployment studies –long-haul and in the metro· Moving beyond 100G – 200G, 400G & 1 terabit· Alleviating the tech investment crunch – engaging the components, subsystems and modules

community· Next generation ROADMs and their impact on network designs· Evolution of optical networks to support data centres, cloud services & high bandwidth services· What do Cloud and SDN mean for optical networking?· Next generation optical broadband access

Introducing the Telco Components master class and a session into the existing WDM stream in 2012 led to interesting discussion and debate about how components and modules fit into the optical network ecosystem, which proved useful for network operators and system vendors to have open discussions with component and subsystem vendors, discussing challenges, timelines and solutions. In 2013 Telco Components World will be based in a bespoke seminar room on the show floor, integrating it further into the fabric of the event.

NEW for 2013 Submarine Optical Networking – a masterclass designed to specifically discuss optical technologies tailored to the harsh undersea environment of submarine telecommunications systems.Following on from the successful launch last year of the Next Generation Optical Awards we have introduced 3 new categories for 2013: Best Test & Measurement Product, Best Optical Equipment Product 400G & Best Optical Component Product 400G. Don’t miss your opportunity to have your achievements recognised by the optical industry and nominate your company’s product by 5th April.

Finally, make the most of all of the interactive networking activities in the exhibition: solution provider demos and products on show, Twitter fountain & YouTube feed to catch up on all the latest news at the event, the networking wheel of fortune and vendor pitch game of chance and our travel deals with our official airline carrier: AirFrance/KLM and discounted transfers from Nice Airport and travel around Monaco.

We hope you can join fellow operators, optical systems and subsystems vendors on the French Riviera for 4 days of in-depth technical discussion, interactive debate, operator case studies, equipment demos and tests, and built in networking opportunities – all under one roof, at EMEA’s leading telecoms optical conference.

AGENDA AT A GLANCE

Good luck! and we hope to be celebrating with you in Monaco in June!

Entries must be submitted using the downloadable forms on the awards website. The deadline for submissions is 5pm (GMT) on Friday 5th April 2013.
