MOPA

Mobile Optical Pluggables Alliance

About us

MOPA is driving the industry towards agreements on the optimum optical pluggables to be developed & made widely available to underpin high performance 5G and future 6G network buildouts.
MOPA produces publicly available technical papers documenting the high-level requirements and optical solutions, known as optical blueprints, necessary for critical parts of the mobile network (fronthaul, backhaul, etc.), with the necessary data rates (10G, 25G, 50G 100G) and the most suitable technologies (gray, WDM, packet). MOPA also liaise and contribute to standardization developing organizations (such as ITU-T, IEEE, SNIA SFF etc) regarding standards required for mobile optics.

MOPA is a nonprofit organization incorporated in Delaware, USA. The MOPA Board consists of representatives of the six founding companies (Ericsson, Nokia, Sumitomo Electric, Coherent, Lumentum and Semtech).

MOPA welcomes membership applications from leading global companies in mobile optics.
