What the event covers
The conference runs from 7–11 March, while the exhibition is open 9–11 March. OFC combines technical sessions with workshops, short courses and demonstrations. The distinction between conference and exhibition dates matters when choosing a pass and planning time with suppliers.

Useful questions include optical interconnect performance, packaging, power consumption and test requirements.
