The demand for high-capacity, energy-efficient networks is surging as AI, cloud computing and 5G drive exponential data growth. With traditional infrastructure increasingly under strain, operators must rethink network design, leveraging automation, energy efficiency and cutting-edge innovation to ensure long-term scalability and cost-effectiveness.
In this roundtable session, Christoph Glingener and fellow industry experts will explore innovations that are shaping the future of fiber networking. Panel members will share insights on optimizing performance using computational AI and explore how generative AI can enhance troubleshooting. They will also discuss how capacity can be sustainably increased to meet the demands of an increasingly digital world.
