For nearly three decades, the OFT series has served as the comprehensive primary resource covering progress in the science and technology
of optical fiber telecom. It has been essential for the bookshelves of scientists and engineers active in the field. OFT V provides updates
on considerable progress in established disciplines, as well as introductions to new topics. [OFT V]... generates a value that is even
higher than that of the sum of its chapters.

efficient bandwidth utilization, and deployed FTTH has 1 Gbit/s shared rates. All these ... are expertly reviewed by an impressive set
of authors, each highly active, well-known and respected. In all ... a timely, highly valuable, well-written and comprehensive view presented
by the world's experts.
