Neutral host networks could cut the cost and complexity of indoor mobile coverage by replacing duplicated operator infrastructure with shared systems. But commercial alignment, investment models and regulatory differences remain …
Enterprises are paying more to manage fragmented wireless networks as AI and other demanding workloads expose gaps in connectivity, visibility and security. Inseego argues consolidation is becoming an operational necessity. …
Operators are moving beyond legacy SON towards SMO/RIC-based automation as part of mid-cycle 5G RAN modernization and vendor swap-out projects, writes SNS Telecom & Research, with annual spending on SMO …
Autonomous networks must move beyond self-healing to coordinate decisions across RAN, transport, core and cloud, argues Droma’s Payal Kindiger, with trust, governance and verified service outcomes key to granting AI …
Wi-Fi 8 could give ISPs a new line of defense against AI-driven cyberattacks, embedding inference hardware in residential gateways. Airties CEO Metin Taskin argues operators must pair next-generation chipsets with …
Hospitals increasingly need DAS to solve three problems at once: public-safety compliance, clinical connectivity and security. Wilson Connectivity argues that analog architecture can simplify lifecycle costs, reliability and HIPAA-related risk …
As mmWave moves beyond hotspot deployments, the challenge is extending high-frequency coverage without simply adding more base stations. Kyocera’s multi-hop repeater validation points to a more flexible network architecture for …
Telecom operators are pouring billions into AI infrastructure, but compute alone will not create lasting value. The bigger challenge is turning GPUs, models and AI platforms into commercially sustainable services …
AI inference is reshaping network demand, creating an opportunity for service providers to turn high-capacity, intelligent connectivity into new revenue as enterprises and hyperscalers scale AI workloads. AI has taken …
Network APIs face a commercial reality check: operators cannot justify heavy investment on speculative hyperscaler demand. Smaller, faster wins such as Branded Calling could generate revenue sooner, build confidence, and …
Connectivity, not just compute, will determine AI’s infrastructure future, argues former AT&T president Glenn Lurie. Drawing on the iPhone’s launch, he says operators, hyperscalers and technology companies must build together …
As AI shifts from centralised training to distributed inference, network architecture is being redrawn around proximity, latency and resilience. Metro fiber, edge connectivity, and optical infrastructure will become as critical …
LoRaWAN has answered the question of whether LPWAN can work at scale. With deployments spanning utilities, buildings, industry, and agriculture, the focus is now shifting to where its economics can …
Space traffic is critical as debris and satellite constellations crowd low Earth orbit. Effective management will require tougher regulation, active debris removal, resilient satellite design and cybersecurity to keep orbital …
Europe’s AI ambitions depend on more than chips and computing power. Without sovereign cloud infrastructure, open standards and domestic alternatives to foreign hyperscalers, the region risks trading technological ambition for …
Agentic AI promises smarter, more autonomous telecom operations, but fragmented OSS/BSS, middleware, and messaging platforms deny it the operational context it needs. Without end-to-end visibility, CSPs risk weaker automation, poorer …
As connected vehicles, robots, and other physical AI systems cross borders, data sovereignty becomes about more than storage. Curtis Govan at Flolive argues regulators and operators must address “network sovereignty” …
As enterprises shift workloads into colocation facilities, visibility gaps across shared infrastructure can undermine performance and resilience. End-to-end network observability, including packet-level inspection, helps IT teams identify faults faster, reduce …
Following years of demonstration experiments, Japan’s private 5G market is moving into operational deployment, with spending on track for a 55 percent CAGR through 2030 as port operators, manufacturers, utilities, …
AI ambitions are exposing the limits of enterprise networks built for the cloud era. To support autonomous workloads at scale, enterprises must evolve from static connectivity to intelligent, self-managing agentic …
New research from network edge routing provider RtBrick suggests America’s broadband problem is no longer about raw speed but network architecture. As demand for low-latency applications grows, operators clinging to …
AI-driven investment is transforming digital infrastructure into one of the world’s fastest-growing industries. But rapid expansion, power constraints, and inevitable consolidation mean many firms may not be around for long. …
Most in-building wireless failures stem from poor requirements gathering, not flawed technology. Enterprises that buy for symptoms rather than operational, capacity, compliance, and growth needs often face costly rip-and-replace projects …
As enterprises deploy agentic AI across clouds, regions, and business ecosystems, connectivity is becoming a strategic differentiator. Vodafone Business says future networks must support AI-to-AI interactions with greater intelligence, security, …
Motorola Solutions argues that 5G has become a valuable connectivity layer for utilities, public safety and industry, but mission-critical operations still depend on resilient LMR networks, with broadband technologies serving …
