Market Insights

How can telcos build a transport network that meets the consumer and enterprise requirements of the future?

If telcos are going to meet the pressures of today’s connectivity demands – optical transport will be a critical element in the telecoms industry’s future growth strategy.

Optical transport not only underpins the entire digital economy – it is also the backbone of fixed networks and supports mobile network traffic. This year at Network X, for the first time ever, we will be including a dedicated spotlight on the growing optical transport market within the event. To achieve this, we are bringing the well-established specialist event in this field, NGON, to Network X. We’ll also be premiering dedicated partner events from key industry stakeholders on this topic.
