BASE 2018 precedes our Annual meeting in Athens. It's the first of a new style Broadband event that brings together key new technologies for service providers to deliver high value services across the whole broadband ecosystem.  BASE 2018 Athens event is located at the conjunction of three continents and targeted at regional providers hungry for advice, guidance and new business opportunities. As such we have decided to provide some limited sponsorship opportunities. Please contact Rhonda Heier.

Visit BASE Athens on the BBFpublic site for details and registration.

This NG-PON2 full day event is collocated with OFC in San Diego. The workshop will provide an update on NG-PON2 technology advantages and readiness to be used in the deployment of next generation access networks. A wide view on this topic and insides on latest technologies, applications, use cases and deployments will be provided from component vendors, system vendors and operators.  Click here for the full agenda and registrations.
