What has dashing good looks and depicts 529 cable systems and 1,444 landings that are currently active or under construction?
Sponsored by Telecom Egypt, this edition is chock-full of information on new builds, hubs, bandwidth, content providers, and more.
We're closing out February with our top five telecom reading recommendations from the month.
First up: a look at how submarine cables are vulnerable to sea-level rise, storms, and other climate impacts.
The wait is over. The 2023 State of the Network Report is finally here and it's our sixth annual check-in on all things telecom, if you can believe it.
We again extract major global bandwidth headlines, take a snapshot of the global internet, peruse the latest in data centers, check in on the cloud, and finish with an update from the voice market.
But what’s new and different? What’s the data telling us in 2023?
Capacity LATAM 2023 is happening March 14-15 in São Paulo. And you just might see a familiar face on the agenda.
Senior Research Analyst Peter Wood will be sharing his expertise in a subsea panel discussion on March 14.
Next month, Senior Research Manager Paul Brodsky will be taking part in a subsea-focused panel at Capacity Middle East.
This panel, titled Competing Visions, will cover network upgrades vs. network modernization, supply chain implications that have affected the industry during covid times, and what this all means for subsea architecture in the Middle East.
While most planned satellite constellations used for connectivity fly in low earth orbit (LEO), some fly in geosynchronous equatorial orbit (GEO) and circle the earth from a much further distance.
Because of this distance, LEO satellites tend to have lower latency and higher bandwidth than their GEO counterparts.
So when MetTel tried to cross its SD-WAN offering with HughesNet's GEO connection, it got latency.
More on this story and our other January telecom reading recs below.
Our first new map of 2023 is here! Meet the brand new Africa Telecommunications Map.
This edition depicts 72 cable systems connected to Africa that are currently active or under construction.
The TG team is enjoying OpenAI's new ChatGPT—an artificial intelligence assistant trained to answer questions and provide information on a wide range of topics—and our Slack channels show it.
As usual, we can't help talking about telecom, so our analysts have made a game of testing ChatGPT's submarine cable knowledge.
How well has it fared?
Back in July, we touched on how UK data centers were struggling to stay cool through unseasonably warm temperatures.
Five months later, our telecom reading list starts off with a very different story: Equinix is considering a multi-year project to raise its data center temperatures.
Our first webinar of 2023 is officially on the books! Mark your calendar for January 11 at 11:00 a.m. ET.
Senior Research Manager Brianna Boudreau will join Ciena's Brian Lavallée for a discussion on global wholesale pricing and the technology advancements that enable cable operators to meet their ongoing sustainability goals.
