The disaggregation of optical networks will bring numerous benefits to service providers including enabling best-in-class innovation for each network element or sub-system; freedom from vendor lock-in enabling solution flexibility and price competition; and staggered network evolution. For example, a faster cycle for transmission subsystems with a longer life for optical line systems. Most service providers are pursuing one of two approaches to building disaggregated optical networks. The Partially Disaggregated and the Fully Disaggregated approach. This paper explains the benefits of both and how service providers can reap the rewards of disaggregated networks regardless of which approach they choose.

Many industries are looking at 5G as the backbone of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. It is a golden opportunity for communications service providers (CSPs) to create and capture new market spaces by driving innovation, efficiency, and growth across various industries. A key factor influencing the uptake of wireless solutions is the question of how to handle spectrum for industrial purposes, since reliable connectivity demands licensed spectrum. Some countries provide spectrum dedicated for industrial use, whereas others do not. The intention of this paper is not to discuss the pros and cons of such spectrum strategies, but rather to focus on industries with local radio coverage needs. It tries to show that whether licensed spectrum is set aside for industries or not, CSPs are in the prime position to optimally address these industrial connectivity needs with powerful 5G networks and business models focused on industries. For regulators intending to implement licensed spectrum dedicated to industrial use, this paper aims to describe how this should best be done using simple principles and the well-defined legislation already available in most countries across the world.Many industries are looking at 5G as the backbone of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

This whitepaper from Cambridge Consultants has been written as a practical guide to the successful implementation of private 5G networks, maximizing ROI and creating competitive differentiation. The report has been written in response to the many enterprises who are exploring – and even starting to roll out – private 5G networks as spectrum is released around the world. The use cases these networks enable promise to deliver huge business advantage

The private 5G market is at an early stage of development, but activity in the market is increasing. 5G accounted for over 50% of all publicly disclosed private network announcements at the end of 2022, according to Analysys Mason’s Private LTE/5G networks tracker.1 5G’s share is lower when non-public announcements are included, but it is expected that most private networks will eventually use 5G.

UTelcos are competitive telecom operators owned by or related to a utility company (power, water, gas, oil, transportation). They usually begin as a group within the utility company in charge of delivering internal communication services. They can then become a competitive telecom operator under the utility-holding company or government entity.
