“Very simply we (iconectiv) keep the world connected,” says Sharon Dileo, iconectiv’s Director of Product Management. In this podcast Dileo is joined by Chris Bain, Director, Common Language Services at iconectiv, as we look at recent whitepaper findings and how a common naming strategy improves the effectiveness of real-time network operations and key business management functions while also bringing increased awareness when launching and managing new network-based services. Anyone who wants to better understand the impact and opportunity 5G holds, will want to listen. “Don’t fear 5G,” explains Bain as he places the 5G revolution in the contest of changes most industry veterans are accustomed to.

The greatest challenge communication service providers face today is keeping pace with technology advancements like 5G that support the rollout of new revenue-generating services in a way that is both profitable and scaleable. One of the main hurdles to achieving this is the deployment, management and interconnection of physical and virtual assets that support these services. To address this challenge, IDC released a new whitepaper, “Common Language Drives Customer Value for All Network Technology: 5G/MEC and Virtualized Networking,” which explains how service providers can achieve business value by maximizing use of a standardized nomenclature. Today’s podcast gives us an overview of this approach.

Although 5G is still in the beginning stages of implementation, industry experts are starting to discuss the sixth generation of wireless – what it will look like, how fast it will be and when it is coming. However, what needs to be considered is how 6G can have a more successful rollout and adoption compared to 5G.

In order to attain this type of adoption, BridgeComm, a leader in optical wireless communications (OWC) solutions and services, believes there is a need for more innovation to allow operators to choose if they prefer a conservative or aggressive route with hardware, services and interfaces. OWC provides the throughput needed to support the ever-increasing demand for secure, ultra-high-speed connectivity with almost limitless capacity. OWC offers this type of innovation as it holds tremendous potential to augment RF, fiber and mmWave technologies and extend the capabilities of the terrestrial fiber grid-particularly in hard-to-access environments and in areas where cell towers do not currently exist.
