The importance of fibre-optic test equipment has increased in recent years, as global fibre deployment ramps up. This was evident in some of the latest product developments demonstrated at recent industry events, and also shown in the most recent market research predictions
A new implementation agreement for low-power consumption will see small modules push technological barriers, finds Andy Extance
5G is the talk of the telecoms industry, with 5G networks launching in the US and South Korea. But many don’t realise that 5G isn’t possible without fixed high-speed and high-density fibre connectivity, says Mikael Sandberg
Craig Black explains why fibre could make or break 5G
Scott Modha takes a look at how the right technique goes a long way, and network operators could benefit from simplified microduct network deployments
Network core flexibility will become just as important as capacity for future networks, and coherent solutions could be key to accommodating changing traffic flows, argues Eugene Park
Power over Ethernet (PoE) could help service providers adapt to the opportunity provided by IoT in order to remain competitive, argues Ankit Agarwal
Jeremy Wastie takes a look at the challenges associated with procurement, and explains why connectivity in the UK does not have to be a postcode lottery
Cabling infrastructure will be vital in the deployment of 5G networks, meaning that the wireless will still depend on wires, says Jean-Jacques Sage
