OFC Conference — Industry Event Guide

OFC is a conference and exhibition focused on optical networking and communications. It connects research and system development with the components, devices and infrastructure used to move data over optical networks. The 2027 technical conference is confirmed for Los Angeles.

Technologies and industry applications

The 2027 technical conference runs from 7 to 11 March, while the exhibition runs from 9 to 11 March. This distinction matters when scheduling equipment demonstrations, technical sessions or meetings.\n\nOFC is relevant to optical transmission, photonic integration, network systems and the supporting measurement and component ecosystem. Buyers can examine how a device or subsystem contributes to a larger communications architecture. Quantum-communications teams may find relevant optical infrastructure and component suppliers, but should consult the current technical program rather than assume that every session concerns quantum networking.

Who should attend

Optical communications researchers, network engineers, component and module suppliers, photonic integration teams, test-equipment manufacturers and organizations evaluating optical networking infrastructure.

Commercial relevance for suppliers and exhibitors

Suppliers benefit from application-specific positioning: a technical audience needs to understand system integration, operating constraints and how an offering fits a network architecture. Marketing can support clear product evaluation and meeting preparation around the conference and exhibition, without promising access to named attendees.
