Anritsu’s patented PIM over CPRI option is a new, non-intrusive method of measuring passive intermodulation (PIM) using live traffic over the Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI) link. It is set to change the dynamics of PIM detection by enabling users to test at ground...
Communications service providers (CSPs) are among the top players vying for a share of the addressable IoT market. Top CSPs, such as AT&T and Vodafone, have developed new technology, business frameworks and competencies. Many other CSPs have seen significant growth in machine-to-machine (M2M) connections...
The rising cost and scarcity of spectrum is a big problem for communications service providers (CSPs) and mobile network operators (MNOs). If today’s allocation model of auctioning and licensing spectrum remain the only option, it’s highly likely there will be a spectrum shortage within...
We’re all in the video business now
Back in the late ‘90s, mobile network providers were in the phone call business. That’s what drove ARPU. For ISPs using traditional wired delivery mediums, it was just about getting online. (We even called it “Internet dial tone”...
