OFC conference and exposition - March 9-13 in San Francisco [Conference Preview]

The industry's top event for those working in optical communications is closing in on 40. The OFC Conference and Exposition has evolved from its beginnings in 1975 as the Optical Fiber Transmission conference to the largest show of its kind today - featuring topics well beyond simple fiber transmission, including cloud and datacenter networking, bandwidth exhaust, virtualization and software-defined networks (SDN), silicon photonics and more. OFC 2014 runs March 9-13 in San Francisco with all new presentations, workshops, panel discussions, networking opportunities, short courses and special events.
