The IPv4 Dilemma – How to Solve the Urgent Need for Rapid Rural Buildout

New and next generation service assurance solutions must provide unified monitoring for hybrid networks and enable service providers to achieve the full benefits of network virtualization, such as operational flexibility and service agility, by underpinning the closed loop processes for automated assurance and orchestration.

While most data centers are prepared for current bandwidth demands and maintain up-to-date backbones, some enterprise networks are in danger of falling behind. Increased wireless traffic has already taxed many enterprise environments. Evolving IEEE 802.11 standards such as 802.11ac Wave 1, Wave 2, and 802.11ax — along with bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies — encourage more Wi-Fi activity and place significant strain on existing 1000BASE-T systems. This demand has pushed network speed requirements beyond 1 Gb/s. Enterprise networks will fail to meet the growing demand for reliable network performance without the right cabling infrastructure in place.

Cloud-native 5G infrastructure technologies provide the flexibility, agility, and resilience that CSPs need to compete in the new digital economy. With a full suite of telco cloud infrastructure solutions and operating models, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is enabling CSPs to accelerate deployments while also reducing risk and complexity.

On-Demand Webinar: Marlink organised, in partnership with SES and ST Engineering iDirect, an interactive live panel session talking cloud access, network optimisation, and hybrid networks which was broadcasted live on 17 November 2021.
