Join Ciena, in three fast moving and exciting sessions:

100G Coherent PON [CPON] – Building on Lessons Learned across Five PON Generations
(Fifth Time’s the Charm)

100G CPON, set to launch in 2027 as PON's sixth generation, addresses challenges unresolved in earlier generations while building on successful design objectives from Gen 3 and Gen 4 (2.5G and 10G PON). Key advancements include universal overlay compatibility, multi-tenancy support, post-FEC bandwidth normalization, and latency-free ONU registration. Watch as Jay Teborek Senior Director, Product Line Management, explores these challenges, their impact on previous PON deployments, and how CPON standards are designed to overcome them.

The Future of Extensible Campus Networking – Passive Optical Networking [PON]

Campus networks face growing and unpredictable bandwidth demands, making PON’s point-to-multipoint, passively extensible architecture ideal for high-bandwidth expansion. While PON is widely used for Gigabit FTTH services, recent hardware and software innovations have tailored it for campus environments. This talk with Jay Teborek, Senior Director, Product Line Management, explores advancements in Campus PON, its applications in university, hospitality, campus WiFi, and other LAN settings, and the evolving fiber architectures supporting current and future PON upgrades.

Revolutionizing Data Centers: PON Technology for Efficiency and Sustainability

Listen to Furqan Haq, Principal, Product Line Management, discuss how Passive Optical Network (PON) technology can reduce data center space, power and cabling. Discover how PON’s modular design, flexible capacity, shared infrastructure usage and advanced telemetry can significantly reduce energy consumption and material usage in data center builds. This technology can play a vital role in reducing the environmental and operational footprint within the data center enabling the optimal deployment of compute for AI application growth.
