The Plastic Optical Fiber Trade Organization (POFTO), as part of its POF Day @ OFC/NFOEC 2010 program, is organizing a POF Symposium that is 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.

POFTO is also organizing a POF Applications Center where companies demonstrate their products during the show and attendees can bring their problems and receive design advice on POF solutions from experts. If you are interested in exhibiting at the Applications Center, please sign up here.
