Bringing Scale to the Edge with Multi-Access Edge Computing
Multi-access edge computing (MEC) is the telco-centric approach to delivering edge computing by integrating it with fixed and mobile access networks.
How IoT Solutions helps Elderly to stay Safe and Independent
As technology advances, IoT may assist in resolving challenges faced by seniors. Data acquired from IoT devices are used to create an individual’s daily story by monitoring their routine, detecting discrepancies, and, if necessary, alerting emergency services. Connected IoT devices in the home boost security; experts predict that by 2017, 50 million wireless consumer health monitoring gadgets will be sold, making the smart home a reality.

Why Edge Computing and why now? –
most IT departments have still only been managing IT infrastructure consisting of thousands of end points on their network. IoT (Internet of Things) devices and smart phones changed all that. Now, there are literally billions of devices that want to process instructions, collect data and communicate with the centre in real-time.
An Overview of Edge Computing
Edge computing is all about the new value that we can generate from data and accessing more of that data by getting closer to where it’s created.
Webinar: New MPO Multi-Fiber Connectors at the Tower – New Test Requirements for Fiber Inspection
The use of MPO (Multi-Fiber Push on) Connectors is growing in today’s Wireless networks. 5G is driving this change by requiring more bandwidth and fibers throughout the Mobility network. Traditional Fiber architectures include simplex and/or duplex Fiber connectors, these new MPO connectors present new and unique challenges to installation and maintenance at the Tower. This session will review the emergence of these new connectors, their place in 5G network architecture, new test requirements and challenges presented.

The New World of 400 Gbps Ethernet
The new IEEE Std 802.3bs-2017 standard for 400G and 200G Ethernet continues the rapid development of Ethernet to accommodate the increasing bandwidth demands of cloud data centers. The current 400G specifications cover only fiber optic media, pushing the limits of optical lane speeds and the number of parallel fibers in a link.
