Altera® is looking forward to OFC 2024, the premier global event for optical communications and networking.  The event takes place from March 24th to March 28th at the San Diego Convention Center, San Diego, California.   

Check out the Optical Transport Network (OTN) and Passive Optical Networking (PON) solutions we will be demonstrating in booth (#1501, the Intel booth) to see how by leveraging Altera® FPGA technology we can drive real industry innovation! 

Altera is hosting customer meetings at OFC.  Please reach out to Lars Pedersen or Martin Wiseman to schedule. 

We invite you to visit us in person in Booth #1501 to discuss our latest announcements, disclosures, and demos. 

This year, Altera will be present in the booth running several demonstrations leveraging Agilex™ 7 FPGAs. 

Altera booth (in the Intel booth #1501) 

Our first demo is a live demonstration of OTN over Packet (PLE) transmission based on Agilex™ 7 FPGA.  A 100 Gbit/s OTN signal (OTU4) is decomposed into packets, sent over an IP network, and then reconstructed at the other end of the network.  This allows packet-switched networks and standard Ethernet optical modules to service OTN connections.  This demo was developed working with our partner Infinera. 

Our second demo will display Altera’s recent development in Passive Optical Networks (PON) IP.  This Agilex™ 7 based example design showcases Altera’s 50G Asymmetric Burst-mode PON reference design with 50G downstream and 25G upstream, supporting G.9804.3 electricals. 

Altera is eager to meet with you to discuss our newest Agilex™ 7 and Intel Agilex™ 5 FPGA families and our large library of IP for communication solutions. 

We look forward to seeing you there!
