Keely Portway considers the current state of 5G deployment and fibre networks’ role in its operation
Looking into the future of telecommunications, it could be argued that AI and telcos will effectively transform each other, explains Raf Meersman
Raf Meersman offers three routes to 5G that could ensure less capital and operational expenditure for operators, for all of which, convergence is key
A study released at the recent FTTH Conference and Exhibition in Amsterdam proposed that anticipating FTT-5G convergence at the planning stage of a network could offer significant cost savings
The FTTH Council Europe has revealed the results of a new study which aims to quantify the potential cost savings that could be made by building converged 5G-fibre networks.
At the upcoming FTTH Conference 2017 in Marseille, Comsof will launch a new product: FiberPlanIT Engineer.
