Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) is a significant driver in the future of the networking industry. Traditional networking infrastructure struggles to keep pace with the performance, speed and capacity requirements of AI/ML applications. To address this challenge, there has been a push towards higher-speed 800G optical transceivers and the emergence of 1.6Tb/s, alongside […]

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications necessitates unparalleled data transmission and processing speeds. As datasets grow exponentially, the demand for faster transmission solutions escalates, leading to the development of 800G and 2x400G transceiver technologies to overcome existing bottlenecks, with forecasts of 1.6Tb on the horizon. However, transitioning to these […]

As the telecommunications industry converges at Mobile World Congress (MWC) Barcelona 2024, one of the major themes at the show is the concept of a “Dark NOC” with AI and ML-enabled intelligent systems. The evolution towards the Dark NOC is driven in part by the growing demands for network performance and reliability – automated operations […]

As the telecommunications industry prepares to converge Radio Access Networks (RAN) and Core networks, the need for rigorous testing in a lab environment has never been more critical. This convergence aims to position processing functions and resources closer to the user, diminishing latency and network traffic load while simultaneously boosting quality of experience. With so […]

Today’s digital landscape depends heavily on the telecommunications industry to function, with network infrastructure at its foundation. From Open RAN and disaggregation to the shift towards cloud-based solutions, we are constantly working to reinvent, reinforce and improve network architectures in pursuit of better performance and end-user experiences. At Mobile World Congress (MWC) Barcelona 2024, the […]

The story of artificial intelligence, or AI, is one that spans decades and multiple industries. AI enables a myriad of potential applications that will transform the way we live and work. In the telecommunications industry, we are already seeing AI’s impact and a future where AI enables the automation, orchestration and optimization of networks and […]
