Wholesale voice remains vital to telecoms, supporting traffic flow and competitive pricing. Yet margins are tight. The good news is that emerging opportunities offer new ways to strengthen profitability.
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.
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.
Fibre is essential to realising the potential of massive IoT and how 5G is critical for your business. With 5G, a minimum connectivity of a million devices for the same coverage area can be achieved. Also new 5G networks are designed to support this truly ‘Massive IoT’ deployment and new applications.

Private 5G industrial IoT networks are about to become big. Probably, very big, because there’s a huge range of potential use cases, and stakeholders (across many sectors) are eagerly planning to capitalise on new, high-performance mobile capabilities to run wireless operations in factories, broadcasting, sports, smart cities and more.
Up to 5 billion robocalls hit phones each month, costing US providers $10 billion yearly. Spoofed caller IDs mislead users. STIR/SHAKEN helps restore trust in Caller ID and protect subscribers.
Did you get your invite to the “Bring Your Own Carrier” (BYOC) party? The key to entry is the right SBC. BYOC was a hot trend in the cloud communications industry in 2020 that will only pick-up steam in the coming years.
WebRTC, originally open-sourced by Google, now drives modern web communications. Its value became clear in 2020, when real-time communication tools proved essential during global lockdowns.
