At our 2019 WAN Summit New York we polled our audience on their WAN design, network security, how they benchmark network spending, and much more.
Per usual, we learned a lot.
Google and SubCom are turning to space-division multiplexing within their new Dunant cable. The pair is angling to engineer the fastest fiber-optic cable of it's kind. (We can talk about whether or not new submarine cables are really giving us faster internet another time.)
We're still buzzing from WAN Summit New York. Our largest summit to date, we were joined by an elite ensemble of networking experts who guided us through conversations on security, cloud, hybrid WAN rollouts, NFV, and much more.
If you sadly couldn't make this year's event, chew on these three takeaways. It's just enough food for thought until we hit the road again later this year.
Another year, another brilliant update on trends in Latin America wholesale telecom from Anahí Rebatta.
This year Anahí shared insights on growth drivers, infrastructure challenges, new cable projects, and opportunities within the regional wholesale industry.
TeleGeography's Kate Reilly recently dug into Middle Eastern telecommunications through her presentation International Network Connectivity in the Middle East.
The Capacity Middle East audience was treated to an in-depth walkthrough of international bandwidth, regional pricing highlights, and the latest submarine cable developments.
Even as coherent modem technology continues to innovate, the amount of data that can be carried over today’s networks shows no signs of slowing.
Despite all this modem magic, we can’t ignore the laws of physics. We’re quickly approaching the Shannon Limit–the maximum information-carrying capacity of a submarine cable optical fiber pair.
What new alternatives are on the horizon to side-step this inevitability?
Wow—a lot of submarine cable news this month.
From a deep dive into global communication from the New York Times to the Wall Street Journal's exploration of the Huawei case, there's a lot for any telecom fiend to take in.
We'll keep the fanfare brief. Keep scrolling to read these stories, as well as a Popular Science post about a new internet speed record, Bloomberg's profile on big tech in telecom, and the best SD-WAN conversation you'll hear all week.
Last month we welcomed our 2019 Submarine Cable Map into the world. This new edition is all about the building boom.
Our 2019 infographics single out the economics of new cables, investors, bandwidth demand, and—of course—a closer look at how content providers are getting involved.
There's been plenty of talk about the vital importance of edge as it relates to new types of network configurations. We're anticipating plenty of new applications coming down the pike, from 5G to all things AI.
This was on Jon Hjembo's mind as he explored TeleGeography's take on the edge during our annual telecom workshop last month.
As another month of 2019 comes to a close, we're looking back at the telecom headlines that caught our attention in February.
Our top pick is about Google's big plans for 2019—$13 billion worth of plans, to be exact. Take a look at the Lightwave article below to see what we're talking about.
We've also got 5G news, the latest on Huawei, and some Irish internet history. A little something for everyone this month—enjoy.
