The Place Where Modern Operations & Technology Come Together
Operators and Service Providers' Lucrative 5G First-Mover Opportunity
The next-generation of mobile connectivity is rapidly bringing supercharged mobile gaming, Internet of Things technology, and a smarter, better-connected world to consumers’ fingertips. As 5G rapidly evolves and brings new possibilities, it presents a wealth of opportunities for mobile network operators (MNOs) to differentiate their services with high performance applications; and for wireline operators to deliver differentiated backhaul transport services, but they need to act quickly.
How Service Providers Can Improve Network Performance in a Post-Pandemic World with Traffic Engineering
One thing that 2020 has clearly shown us is that communications services is a basic and fundamental driver of our global economy. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we realized that many tasks can be done at home, if access to communications services is sufficient. Many of us can work from home or other locations outside of the traditional office; students do not have to be physically present at school to participate in lectures; and we don’t need to go to movie theaters watch a new film release.

Optical Networking / DWDM Basics
Optical networking delivers the distance, bandwidth scalability, resiliency, and manageability that broadband networks require. You're invited to a special session from Ribbon on Tuesday, December 15th where we will review optical networking technology and basics and explain how optical networks solve reachability, survivability, bandwidth growth, and maintenance challenges for broadband services. What problems do optical networks solve? What are the major piece parts and important vocabulary? What do I have to think about when deploying? Any cool stuff on the market I should be aware of?
Virtualizing the Core Network
Service Providers are virtualizing their core networks in an effort to offer premium quality services with reduced resources, costs, and faster time to market. As the industry moves towards 5G, opportunities to advance the virtualization of fixed voice core networks and moving forward on a path to an increasingly cloud-native future enables service providers to gain a competitive edge in the marketplace.
Meeting the "10 Times Challenges" of the 5G Era
Everything about the 5G era is disruptive – from technology to applications, from competition to ecosystems. In addition to entering the mobile services arena, MSOs are in a strong position to gain significant backhaul revenue from this disruptive market place; if they can provide differentiated IP and Optical connectivity for the 5G radio networks.

On October 1, 2020, the FCC invited comments from the telecommunications industry to ascertain progress on implementing Caller ID Authentication. Verizon’s reply underscored the extensive amount of time and effort its team(s) have put in, yielding substantial progress.
Continuous Fiber Optic Health Monitoring with Centralized OTDR
Fiber optic cables carrying massive amounts of information on pulsating beams of light are a critical part of the physical infrastructure supporting our digital society. By their nature, these cables are highly exposed, spanning huge distances in territories beyond the control of a network operator whether underground, under water or on aerial cables, and popping up in equipment huts.
