Jason Bryan (ROCCO) and Henning Lagerbielke (Enghouse Networks) discuss GSMA’s BCE, covering permanent roaming, IoT, the 2G/3G sunset, and the industry impact of evolving billing standards.
In rural U.S. and Canada, fixed broadband Internet connectivity – particularly fiber – is uncommon. This is for two main reasons: networks are expensive to build, and rural areas are typically more geographically distant and less populous than urban areas.
Even as Pay-TV cord-cutting keeps climbing, video programming remains a key component for cable operators and other providers aiming to support their broadband, mobile and other services. As proven once again by the COVID-19 pandemic, consumers hunger for video content to meet their entertainment, education, information, communication and other needs.
With the advent of 4G and 5G technologies, wireless networks can now use IP-based protocols for delivery of all services. Some data-driven services (such as SIM-based IoT and 5G messaging), still rely on services and technologies originally developed for earlier network generations.
Expected within two years at most and set to enable thousands of low latency applications, particularly for industrial purposes, Multi-Edge Access Computing (MEC) is emerging as a key requirement to support 5G SA (Standalone). Cloud computing and IT service power at the edge of a network offers many benefits, but to deliver on MEC’s enormous commercial promise, fibre has to play a central role.
The public cloud has been providing a range of benefits to enterprises for a considerable time. The so-called hybrid cloud has also seen the ongoing migration of infrastructure from carriers. A hybrid of private and public clouds, it offers carriers greater resilience and geo-redundancy, helping them to better manage unexpected traffic spikes.
Bringing your own carrier (BYOC) is gaining momentum due to the increased adoption of cloud computing and related technologies. More and more companies are moving into the cloud and off-the-shelf solutions do not provide flexible connectivity.
