Overview

Mission

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.

What it reported doing in 2025

MOPA also created in 2024, The MOPA Scientific Program, which continued its efforts in 2025, which is to maintain interaction between MOPA members and academia in a structured way. The intent of this program is to foster clear information sharing from the mobile optics industry to academia regarding key challenges and opportunities in that area relevant for academia to address. Conversely, the MOPA Scientific Program offers an opportunity for academia to convey relevant work to an interested community.The MOPA Scientific Program activities include bi-annual joint workshops, held during OFC and ECOC, where MOPA vendors/operators can propose (long-term) research challenges/opportunities to academia. These panel discussions include invited speakers from academia presenting recent relevant work. Best paper awards are also included at these events.
