In 2Q21, Heavy Reading surveyed 86 communications service providers (CSPs) across global regions on their plans for customer premises equipment overall and universal CPE (uCPE) specifically. This report presents the highlights of that survey. Omdia’s uCPE Tracker – 1H21 Annual Forecast report projects that the worldwide uCPE hardware market will grow from $52.5m in 2020 to $2.3bn in 2025—an impressive CAGR of 113% over five years. With this in mind, Heavy Reading expected to see good support for uCPE from survey respondents, and we were not disappointed. We targeted the survey at CSPs planning to implement uCPE within, at most, 24 months. Nevertheless, the respondent pool showed a more lively than anticipated adoption of uCPE. 59% of US, 61% of Asia Pacific (APAC), and 39% of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) respondents have already deployed uCPE.

400G ZR+ is a disruptive technology that delivers 400G optical transmission in standard and interoperable pluggable form factors. With sourcing from multiple suppliers, 400G ZR+ promises to bring improved economics to service providers for transporting 100GbE, and growing 400GbE client traffic, all while being superior to 800G solutions that rely on expensive embedded and proprietary technology. This paper explores how service providers can quickly capitalize on all of the benefits of 400G ZR+ and essentially change the economics for IP and Optical transport.

The world is becoming increasingly connected with advancements in wireless technology. Now in its fifth generation, 5G brings unprecedented speed, reliability, and responsiveness. As 5G wireless technology is further developed and brought to mainstream markets, it will catalyze a paradigm shift for how we connect with our devices, information, and one another. Verizon partnered with Gensler to explore how 5G will transform the way people work. We started by evaluating the critical capabilities and limitations of 5G. An analysis of 5G disruptions in tangential industries yielded five key emerging trends. Finally, by applying these trends to the workplace, we distilled specific implications that are most likely to shape the future of work.

The evolution and large-scale deployment of fifth generation “5G” wireless networks over the next few years will require complementary 5G services by offering ubiquitous and reliable coverage across numerous geographies. Terrestrial networks are currently focusing on delivery of 5G services to areas already being served by existing cellular technologies, but the unique capabilities of non-terrestrial networks can help expand the reach of 5G technology in the realization of new use cases
