Expert View: Time to Have a Look at Innovative Optical and Wireless Networks

Innovative Optical and Wireless Networks (IOWN) represent a transformational shift in telecommunications. The initiative, led by the IOWN Global Forum, aims to eliminate the limitations of traditional electronic networks by adopting a photonics-based networking approach that delivers ultra-fast, low-power, and highly secure data transmission. This will create a next-generation communication infrastructure by integrating advanced optical and wireless technologies.
