Automation uses software to control network resources dynamically with minimal human intervention. It can speed up services delivery and keep the network running at peak efficiency, boosting revenues and reducing costs. With this potential, one might think that automation of telecom networks would be widespread, but that is not the case. Automation in telecom lags compared to industries like transportation, shipping, and cloud computing services.

For the first time, the newest generation of high performance optical transceivers are available in a pluggable form factor. Using 5nm-140Gbaud technology, these transceivers deliver blazing fast 1.2T wavelengths for short haul, and 800G over large geographic regions. As pluggables, they are a huge leap over the previous generation of bulky, power-hungry modules that needed integration into line cards.

Moving to Teams Phone as your primary voice system can save money and provide a great user experience, or it can “crash and burn”. In a two-part workshop, I had the opportunity to explore insights to help migrate successfully to Teams Phone with Greg Zweig of Ribbon. (Ribbon was kind enough to sponsor both workshop sessions.) This article summarizes the information we covered in the workshop.

Hyperscalers are driving the shape of new metro optical networks – literally. AWS, Microsoft and Google have reshaped data center to data center connectivity over the years and now, as they populate their data centers with telecoms equipment, they are deploying it in higher density, with a better power utilization than telcos get. This is because they are not depth constrained so can go up to 600 millimeters deep unlike the standard telco 300mm hard limitation.

As I’ve discussed in my previous blogs in this series, smart networks are becoming increasingly important in an ever-increasing range of industries. These smart networks can deliver significant benefits, but there are some risks, challenges and issues associated with moving to “smart”. In my final blog in the series I will discuss what is required from a modernized communications network to counter some of these risk, challenges and issues.

Middle-mile networks span from tens to several thousand kilometers and provide connectivity between last-mile access networks such as FTTH and mobile base stations and the core services and applications. The middle mile is essential for all operators looking to support new services. This can be both Service Providers delivering new revenue-generating services, or Network Operators delivering mission and business-critical services.

Watch our dedicated IP Optical session where we cover Ribbon’s offering for the Utilities sector. For utilities to meet their regulatory, safety, and business objectives, they need to become "Smart". The legacy TDM communications network used by utilities is not able to effectively support the new digitized, decentralized services. A modernized communication network is required. Ribbon provides seamless, risk-free migration of the legacy TDM communications network.

While industry experts struggle to find consensus on the path to Telco Cloud, almost everyone agrees that automation will play an outsized role in helping network operators overcome the challenges they face in adopting and successfully deploying Telco Cloud. For many network operators, the very inefficient pace of their existing software upgrades is a key challenge they must address to migrate their network to a modern Telco Cloud.
