POF Day Symposium @ OFC/NFOEC 2010
The Plastic Optical Fiber Trade Organization (POFTO) organized a POF Symposium focused on “POF for Home Networks” but also covers recent developments in technology, applications, and new markets such as AOC for HDMI, connectorless technology, and chip solutions for POF data communications. A special attraction is a review of the EEC POF-PLUS funded program, which is leading the way in the development of POF home networks. Speakers from around the world will review developments in their countries of Gigabit POF home networks.
