Agenda

AON Tech Summit APAC 2019 | 7-9 May, 2019 | Seoul, South Korea

5G-ready optical network5G-ready optical networking – the evolution of fronthaul, edge data center interconnect, and specific eye on the unique latency, timing, and synchronization requirements of these applications.

Enterprise & Data Centre Interconnect solutionsCompact modular transport solutions for data center interconnect, encompassing enterprise, service provider, and webscale applications.

Nokia WaveFabricNokia WaveFabric innovations for backbone and metro optical networks, including the Photonic Service Engine 3 with probabilistic constellation shaping, compact ‘metro’ wavelength routing, the complete family of 1830 series packet-OTN switches, and ultra- wideband C&L band transmission.

Legacy TransformationLet’s have a look at the converged optical metro-regional 1830PSS systems and discuss with the experts how the different requirements posted by the modern mobile/fixed access and business services are matched in a unique optimized solution set. Modernize the PDH/SDH transport onto a converged service-aware WDM/OTN network. Enable over-the-top new FE&GBE clients on the renewed network, at zero additional cost. Fully managing the transformation complexity through Nokia Professional Services.

Network automation and virtualizationNetwork and business transformation with Nokia’s Network Management and WaveSuite applications for optical network automation, optimization, and monetization. The new world of open optical networking: Netconf/YANG open interfaces and applications based on open interfaces for health & analytics of optical network.

Nokia Bell LabsA glimpse of the future with Bell LabsNokia Bell Labs is the famous Research entity within Nokia Group, which has an unparalleled innovation history (transistor, C language, UNIX operating system, ….). The IP and Optical Network research lab designs the future of optical communications to meet future demands of applications that have not yet been invented. In 2018, Bell Labs announced the Probabilistic Constellation Shaping (PCS) technology which enables optical communications to approach the Shannon Limit. This demonstration aims to automatically detect the fiber type, which is an essential input parameter for network operators, to fully optimize the network design by decreasing OPEX/CAPEX costs or by increasing bit rates. With the use of Software defined controllers and analytics methods, we monitor, collect, centralize and correlate chromatic dispersion values accumulated over each established light path, already measured by coherent receivers to autonomously identify fiber types without traffic interruption. Our method gives also capable of giving the fiber characteristics such as the dispersion and the dispersion slope, allowing to distinguish two fiber types that only differ by their dispersion slope.

AON Tech Summit APAC 2019 | 7-9 May, 2019 | Seoul, South Korea

Leverage your investment in Nokia optical technology and prepare for the future in optical networking with the Nokia Optical Network Certification (ONC) program. The ONC program is designed to provide industry professionals with the training and skills needed to design, implement, and manage/maintain optical networks based on the Nokia 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) and Network Functions Manager for Transport (NFM-T) (OMS).

Discover how the ONC Program can benefit you by participating in any one of the following learning sessions during the AON Tech Summit in Seoul.

Advanced Optical Network Management with NFM-T SeminarTuesday, May 7, 2019 10:00am – 12:30 pm

In this 2.5 hour seminar, you will discover how to optimize the Nokia NFM-T management system, to efficiently and effectively manage an 1830 PSS-based optical network. This seminar focuses on specific advanced node configurations, network construction, assurance and fault management. This includes mixed-plane/cascading network configuration, MRN/CDC-F service provisioning and traffic/server maintenance.

Leverage the Features of the GMPLS Routing Engine SeminarTuesday, May 7, 2019 1:30pm – 3:00pm

This 1.5 hour seminar will present the value proposition of Nokia GMPLS Routing Engine (GMRE) in controlling optical transport networks. After introducing the key GMPLS features, the seminar will focus on the technologies and solutions supported by GMRE and will show some typical use cases. Protections such as SBR, GR and PRC are included, and fiber cut scenarios will also be discussed.

Registration for both seminars available on a first-come, first serve basis as part of the event registration.
