Presentations from the XV Days of Light

Feel like you're in a first-class carriage, sit back comfortably, and join us on a journey through technology already speeding along at 800G.

Welcome aboard the train to 800G networks! - Marcin Bała

‍Increasing the power! 400G is becoming the standard, and 800G is already starting test runs! - Andrzej Wojnar and Łukasz Bogdanik

400G transmission is appearing in network infrastructure much faster than previous generations of optical modules did. What do the latest standards hide, and how do you build an optimal path for these new, faster transmissions?

What role does the CMIS management protocol/standard play in this success?

How do you prepare your network for a fast migration to the highest 400G/800G throughputs?

And finally, something special — a presentation of a unique module that simplifies everything!

‍DCN devices - you're on the right track. - Damian Pazulak

Multi-layer LAN architecture — benefits for users and administrators.

How do you fully harness the technological potential of network devices?

Interesting DCN deployments in customer networks.

‍

Manage your low-throughput fleet. Hook up to the 400G locomotive. - Łukasz Sukiennik and Jakub Kolasiak‍

Aggregating 10G, 40G, and 16G, 32G FC services into 100G, 200G, 400G transmissions.

What are muxponders? The benefits of building networks based on these devices.

What makes a muxponder so versatile that it can be deployed in nearly any DWDM network?

Example deployments in customer networks.

‍GBC Photonics SRD.‍ The express train of optical transmission development. - Andrzej Wojnar and Michał Owca

The SRD environment is a repository of everything Salumanus has built in the field of compatibility throughout its entire history.

How does the multi-system, cloud-based environment supporting modules with SFP/SFP+/SFP28/XFP/

CFP/CFP2/CFP4/ QSFP+/QSFP56/QSFP28/

QSFP-DD interfaces work?

The benefits of using the SRD Go app.

‍‍

Next stop, Wi-Fi 6. How to boost the performance and security of wireless networks? - Grzegorz Róż and Kacper Czarnecki‍

First class in wireless networks. What sets Wi-Fi 6 apart?

The evolution of security — why do we choose WPA 3 today?

Open networks — is that a good idea? How to use a Captive Portal wisely?

Experience and lessons learned from DCN deployments.

‍

Case Study Station. How to keep data transmission systems from derailing? - Łukasz Sukiennik and Jakub Kolasiak‍

Encryption, redundancy, and diagnostics.

Ways to counter threats in long-distance transmission.

From simple solutions like a redundant fiber line to advanced methods such as active fiber monitoring devices and layer-one encryption.

PANEL DISCUSSION

The energy crisis, rising bandwidth demand, price pressure. How to respond wisely to the challenges facing the telecom and data center industry?

The future of the telecom and data center industry lies in simplifying network architecture and eliminating unnecessary devices. Is that enough to minimize the impact of the energy crisis?

What does changing network architecture involve in organizations as large as Orange, Exatel, Grupa Play, and Akamai?

What does working with large data centers look like from the operators' perspective? What throughputs do data centers actually run on today: 100G, 400G, or already 800G?
