ETSI ISG F5G plenary approves new release 5 work items on Green and Ultra-reliable F5G-Advanced
Thanks to POST Luxembourg hosting the ETSI ISG F5G plenary meeting in Luxembourg City.
The ETSI ISG F5G approved a set of new work items specifically on the design of green F5G-A networks recommending additional standardisation activities in ETSI or in other SDOs improving the carbon emissions of optical networks even further. In addition, two new work items have been approved for improving the low latency and reliability of optical networks. First, low latency PON for industrial networks will specify enhancements to the Passive Optical Network (PON) technology for the application of the technology in the domain of industrial networking including Industry 5.0 manufacturing. Second, with the trend towards all-optical networks, the new work item will specify ultra-reliable wavelength switched networks.
