CommScope Crosstalk

You know, for decades we've been moving electricity pretty much the same way. Bigger wires, bigger conduits, bigger challenges. But as AI, cloud computing, and edge deployments continue to explode, the industry is asking a simple question:

"What if power distribution could become as intelligent, flexible, and scalable as the networks it supports?"

Today, we're talking about a technology that's helping answer that question—Fault Managed Power.

And joining us is one of the industry's leading voices, someone who sits right at the intersection of technology, growth, and real-world deployment. Ronna Davis, Chief Revenue Officer at VoltServer. 

We bring on a new co-host and get honest about how AI is reshaping daily work, creativity, and even the way we learn. With author and trainer Mike Song, we move from AI hype to practical Copilot habits that boost productivity without ignoring security and authenticity.

A.I. is everywhere… you can’t be in the ICT industry without A.I. impacting you in some way these days… even if it’s just the need to stay well informed on progress, adoption, and trends.

There’s currently a tremendous focus on building data centers for this new life form, but to build A.I. in the cloud, we need a different type of plane to get there.

Our guest is Alastair Waite, Senior Market Development Manager for data centers at CommScope.

Earl Parsons and guest host Mike Cooper dig into fiber dispersion and next generation transmission.

CommScope Systems Engineer Mungree Singh discusses the FiberGuide Fiber Management System.
