#DniŚwiatła2024

The mountains are about freedom and challenge. Forging new paths, acclimatisation and careful belaying.

Networks today demand the same approach from us: openness to multivendor solutions, skilful implementation of coherent modulation and quantum data security.

#Networking

At the Light Days, you'll meet like-minded networking enthusiasts. You'll chat over coffee about lambdas, fibre and wireless coverage. You'll be among network engineers, network administrators, presales. You'll feel like you're at base camp :)

#Network technologies

We know that what participants appreciate most about the Days of Light is the short talks, equipment presentations and substantive discussions. As always, we'll show you not only the functionalities but also the applications of our systems. You'll be prepared for a solid dose of knowledge about coherent modulation, transmission systems, cloud solutions and open networks.

IP-over-DWDM systems and 100G/400G/800G coherent optical transceiver in a nutshell. Everything you need to know to take the best from them for your network.
Salumanus

Why are coherent optical transceiver and IP-over-DWDM systems becoming more common in optical networks? And how does this translate into network cost efficiency? Learn about the advantages and disadvantages of IPoDWDM, monitoring and management challenges, and example applications. And for dessert, the MX800 transponder - one to rule them all

10:45 - 11:15
How to avoid ‘warehouse deposits’ after projects? Optical module stock management, passportisation and versatility. Practical examples.
Salumanus

We will propose simple solutions to tame the growing stock of spare optical modules. We will discuss how the SRD 5 environment supports workflow by enabling accurate identification and tracking of optical modules. Furthermore, we will present practical examples of how SRD 5 can be used in everyday work, highlighting the benefits of improved efficiency and reduced errors.

PANEL DISCUSSION
Open optical networks: a revolution in costs and management or a chance for a new deal for suppliers?

Open networks have the potential to radically reduce operators' operating costs. But will it be enough to change the way purchasing departments operate? How can increased competitive freedom in the supply of components help address technical challenges?
Participants in the debate will consider how interoperability will affect the future of telecoms networks. Will flexibility become the key to competitive advantage for operators? Or will the development of technologies such as 5G, 6G and IoT open the door to a full redefinition of the telecoms market?

Does Alien Lambda have a future? How to reconcile technology integrations between users so that mutual failures do not occur?
Salumanus

We will work out the Alien Lambda topic from the technical side. How to practically reconcile the operation of 400ZR pluggable optics with existing linear systems.  Introducing this technology which is inherently ‘alien’ due to the independent nature of IP and optical management systems. We will show the impact of this change on traditional network management systems and how the Alien Lambda architecture can provide tangible benefits to operators and enable the successful implementation of this new technology.
