Network Modernization: From Legacy TDM to Service Resiliency

Utilities today are focused on the 3-Ds, De-Carbonization and the transition to renewable energy, De-Centralization of energy resources and infrastructure, and Digitalization, with smart systems, grids, and substation modernization. In addition, the need to integrate the IT & OT networks puts the pressure on to increase efficiencies - but it also opens and enables a world of possibilities for the next-generation Utility, flexible to new Telco service offerings and revenue streams.

Connecting in the Heartland: A Journey with Our Rural Customers

One of the highlights of my summer is a trip I took to visit some of our rural customers as part of a larger customer appreciation tour other members of the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) and I embarked on.

Voice Solutions for Regional & Rural Service Providers

Being a voice service provider is challenging. Many regional and rural service providers are constrained by legacy TDM networks that are expensive to maintain, are well into their late lifecycles, are becoming a burden to administer and manage due to resource shortages and therefore pose risks to their business vitality. Continuing changes are experienced with vendors and products that seemingly constantly enter and exit the market. Ribbon offers a comprehensive transformation portfolio tailored to regional and rural providers.

Ribbon Voice Network Transformation - The Savings Pay for the Conversion

Ribbon's Fixed Network Transformation solutions consolidate and modernize infrastructure, eliminating inefficiencies. Ribbon provides solutions to transform both the core IP and optical networks and the IP-based communications services that run on top of that network, helping service providers expand and improve business services as well as enter new markets like unified 5G xhaul and broadband backhaul. At the same time, these transformations reduce the cost and complexity of delivering traditional residential communications services by dramatically reducing recurring power, HVAC, space, and staffing costs.
