| | Some very interesting papers and workshops at OFC. ====================================
Acacia Communications experts will be on hand at OFC to lead discussions and share knowledge regarding technology and innovation in optical communications. They will facilitate sessions covering topics such as coherent for shorter reach applications, 400G and beyond, and silicon integration. Acacia is also the sponsor of Theater III, which will host educational programs throughout the conference including Acacia’s session on Next Generation Coherent: Architectures and Technologies.
