If you’ve been to Connexions in the past couple of years, you’ve heard this message on the main stage: Speed will only take you so far as a differentiator and as competitors continue to upgrade their networks, even this advantage will disappear. I myself never use all my bandwidth (I check my experience in Service Cloud) and you could not get me to buy more speed. Beyond a certain point, subscribers can’t “feel” a difference. So, if you’re looking to enhance the subscriber experience or drive ARPU, you’re going to have to work on providing new experiences that solve pain points for your customers. Parents struggle with managing screen time, they worry about their kids group chats and the content that they consume. Bark is an easy solution that caters to this audience as it takes out the guesswork and alerts parents in real time. Most parents hate having to check their kids phones and search through chat history, so if you can help them maintain visibilty of issues while protecting privacy- you’re providing value. Those that work from home NEED their internet to work flawlessly. There is nothing more embarrassing than a timed-out Zoom or more frustrating than a wireless printer not connecting. White glove service to help them set up devices on the right network channels and have priority in a tech support queue is something that I would pay extra for… especially during outages. Smart homes rely on network efficiencies to support all the devices in their home. That means, that devices need to be on the right channel to support faster talk times to the gateway. We see that this audience wants their Internet extended to the backyard to support hobbies like outdoor movie nights and music in the man-shed. Our Outdoor U4hm would be a smart add-on in a package to help these subscribers. Sky is the limit, get creative, we have a lot of solutions that will help you get out of the speeds and feeds game.

Reliable WiFi has become a critical utility for multi-dwelling units (MDUs), often ranking among the top factors potential tenants consider when choosing a place to live. However, providing consistent, high-quality WiFi in MDUs presents unique challenges. In this article, we explore how #OpenWiFi, an open-source initiative from the Telecom Infra Project, is addressing these challenges and transforming connectivity in MDUs. Attending WISPAPALOOZA?

when several users connect to the same network, congestion happens as the router attends the first device’s request, and the others in the line have to wait. What Multi-user, Multiple-input, Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) does is mitigate the congestion by creating multiple connections to a device simultaneously, potentially reducing congestion and improving network efficiency.

How they'll do it There's plenty of speculation over exactly how T-Mobile, Verizon and potentially AT&T might expand their network capacity for additional FWA customers. One option might include installing external receivers on customers' houses, a move that could strengthen the connection between a broadcasting tower and a customer's home or office. Another option might involve the installation of mmWave equipment; already UScellular has boasted of 1 Gbit/s FWA services over mmWave connections at distances up to four miles (mmWave spectrum generally only supports short-range connections). But there might be other options, according to the TD Cowen analysts. "We learned OEMs such as Nokia (a FWA vendor for T-Mobile) and Samsung (a FWA vendor for Verizon) are launching meaningful FWA capacity upgrades at tower sites at very affordable levels," they wrote in a recent research note. "Essentially, if wireless carriers can affordably upgrade FWA tower capacity at the levels that OEMs are suggesting, the FWA performance and TAM [total addressable market] may grow far more than what the carriers are targeting today." For example, they wrote that Nokia and Samsung could increase the number of MU-MIMO "layers" in their radios from four to 16, or they could employ additional beamforming and site optimization technologies. They could also improve FWA customer premises equipment (CPE) to include eight receivers instead of four today. However, most of those options – such as improved receivers or additional mmWave equipment – could require additional investments into hardware. Whether T-Mobile and Verizon believe that kind of investment would pay off remains to be seen. MORE: https://lnkd.in/gu7E-nGd

Worth spending this 5-min read for an easy, clear overview about Private 5G vs Wi-Fi 6E

An Overview of GPON SFP Modules Small form-factor pluggable transceivers known as Gigabit Passive Optical Networks (GPON) are designed for passive optical network applications. The primary use of these modules is for fast data transmission over fiber optic cables, which is made possible by the GPON standard, which can handle up to 2.5 Gbps downstream and 1.25 Gbps upstream.

In its new report, Opensignal found that areas in the US with a larger number of Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) customers actually showed better networking performance than areas with fewer #FWA customers. Many areas in the US FWA is the fastest way they can get coverage since many areas do not have and ROI for fiber. DENGYO USA antennas can help your FWA rollout helping underserved areas unlock wider broadband access. #FWA #Internet #Innovation
