What is Optical and IP Convergence - Round Table Discussion

Explore the convergence of optical and IP networks, a key trend transforming modern data communications. Join us while we define convergence, outlining how it streamlines traditionally separate optical and IP layers. Discover compelling benefits such as operational efficiency, reduced footprint, protection, and interface support. Additionally, we'll discuss the driving forces behind this convergence, such as the explosive growth of data traffic, the rise of pluggable coherent optics, and the need for more efficient and scalable network architectures. This video provides a concise overview of this critical topic, highlighting the advantages and considerations for organizations embracing converged optical and IP networks.
