Open XR Forum is a consortium bringing together network operators, equipment vendors, and component suppliers committed to building the foundation for a new generation of coherent optical solutions that will cost-effectively meet demand for greater network scalability and flexibility. XR optics is the industry\u2019s first coherent optical solution that can solve the access and aggregation challenges faced by network operators caused by the misalignment between network traffic patterns and the technology used to transport that traffic.<br \/>\nThe Forum also released the \u201cOpen XR Concept Introductory White Paper,\u201d available for download from the Open XR Forum site. The white paper describes the limitations and shortcomings of today\u2019s point-to-point optical networks and the inherent performance, cost-effectiveness, and network agility benefits of point-to-multipoint coherent optical networks utilizing digital subcarriers. The white paper also presents key technical design considerations along with network management and control concepts and highlights a number of important application scenarios.<br \/>\nThe significant growth in bandwidth driven by 5G, high-speed broadband, and cloud-based services places substantial pressure on network operators to increase capacity while limiting capital expenditures and reducing operating costs. The overriding objective of Open XR Forum is to dramatically reduce network total cost of ownership by simplifying network architectures, enabling dynamic and on-demand capacity allocation, and implementing software and component technologies that are compatible across multiple generations of optical technologies.<br \/>\nOpen XR Forum membership is expanding to cover a wide range of industry participants and applications and currently includes AT&amp;T, BT, Colt, Crown Castle, Infinera, Liberty Global, Lumen Technologies, Telef\u00f3nica, Verizon, Windstream, and ZAYO.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><em>Above, photo by FLY:D on Unsplash<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forum launches new white paper about point-to-multipoint coherent pluggable transceiver technology Open XR Forum announced that AT&amp;T, Colt, Crown Castle, Telef\u00f3nica, and ZAYO have joined the industry initiative and MSA effort to advance the deployment of software-configurable point-to-point and point-to-multipoint coherent optical networks utilizing XR optics pluggable transceiver technology.
