With bandwidth demand growing exponentially, legacy access networks won’t be able to keep pace with the needs of business services, mobile transport and next-generation residential applications forever. As 10G PON technologies scale, many network operators are eyeing the next leap forward, with some already deploying 50G PON to serve specific use cases.

In this session, Stephan Neidlinger will explore the path to 50G PON, examining deployment drivers, ecosystem readiness and how higher-speed PON can unlock new revenue opportunities. He’ll also highlight how operators can seamlessly upgrade existing GPON- and XGS-PON-based infrastructure to meet tomorrow’s challenges.
