Nexgen Conferences has announced the second edition of the Annual Future Generation-Optical Transport Networks Summit 2017, an international Conference-cum-Exhibition. This conference is going to be held on 8th February, 2017, at ITC Maratha in Mumbai.

The conference is effectively designed to bring together the key telecom industry professionals, stakeholders, thought leaders, analysts and users under one roof to participate in the highly focussed discussions on optical technology development and deployment requirements. The emphasis will be on exploring smarter as well as cost-effective solutions for entire Optical Transport Network (OTN) portfolio, including optical-fibre technology, Wave-length Division Multiplexing (WDM) and high-capacity network infrastructure.

According to MarketsandMarkets, the Optical Transport Network (OTN) market is expected to grow $23.64 billion by 2019, registering a CAGR of at Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15.8%. In the current scenario, Asia-Pacific (APAC) is the highest growing region with a CAGR of 19.3% in this market.
