Network Convergence eBook

Ongoing digital transformation like 5G and IoT are driving network evolution. Wireless and wireline networks are merging in unprecedented ways, with significant consequences for design and operation. Ensure you have the required flexibility and capacity in place – quickly, efficiently, and without overspending!

This eBook will explore some of the details of convergence as an architecture, as a business model, and as a profound opportunity for today’s networks to prepare for tomorrow’s demand.

In this eBook you will learn about:

• Strategic approach – costs and opportunities of convergence
• Enhanced mobile broadband – adding capacity, flexibility and speed to the physical infostructure (densification; Centralized RAN and Cloud RAN architectures; Multi-Access Edge Computing)
• Planning and building converged network – shared fibre infrastructure, dark fibre, virtual dark fibre
• Benefits for Wholesale Open Access Networks
• HFC network convergence
• Questions you have to answer before planning a converged network
