INFRASTRUCTURE TRENDS USE CASES

Deep deployment of fiber optics into our nation's network infrastructure might not be as glamorous as the eagerly anticipated launch of fifth- generation mobile networks (5G); however, it is just as important.

We already live in a connected world, but technologies like cloud, edge computing, ML, and 5G will profoundly reshape the way people and technology connect and interact with each other.

With a proliferation of choices, such as cable providers and over-the-top providers, communications service providers wishing to compete are experiencing tremendous pressure to integrate new technologies as part of a systematic change and network orchestration.

The combination of 5G and edge computing can supercharge data collection, analysis, and action— and potentially provide a platform to transform business operations.

Telecom and technology companies—particularly cloud providers—are bringing unique capabilities to build the enterprise 5G future together

With the pandemic disrupting work and accelerating demand for innovation, leaders are swiftly ramping up interest in 5G, Wi-Fi 6, and other advanced wireless technologies. Deloitte’s study illustrates the rapid shift.

As demand for more powerful networking and digital capabilities grows, 5G technologies can offer organizations the capabilities needed to unleash the next phases of innovation, efficiency, and agility.

Organizations moving to adopt next-gen wireless strongly believe it has the potential to provide competitive advantage, unlock the power of other emerging technologies, and transform their organization and industry in the next three years.

Declining yield and steady capital demands make 5G deployment challenging for US carriers. To realize the potential of this new technology requires that policy makers, carriers, and industries work together toward 5G adoption.

Spectrum is at the core of wireless service providers’ business. But with 5G networks on the way, those providers—and investors—need to rethink how they value spectrum.

Since spring 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has been accelerating structural challenges and trends that have long faced the telecommunications industry. Kevin Westcott explores the biggest trends for 2021 and shares his industry analysis.

As US telecommunications companies and device makers plan strategies for rollouts of next- generation wireless technology, they’re looking to consumers to drive demand for faster, more reliable internet service.

5G has the potential to change how government fulfills its many missions. Understanding 5G will help government officials make policy and infrastructure decisions that drive useful innovations in future.

A network service menu is only the first step toward a customer-oriented service delivery approach that enables easy discovery of available services and the creative freedom to mix and match service options with appropriate performance guarantees.

Concerns about 5G's health risks are widespread, but they have no basis in fact. If education about 5G is to be effective in curbing popular fears, it needs to be compelling, consistent, and pervasive, and it needs to begin now.

The intelligent edge is poised to propel tech and telecom companies toward the next generation of connectivity and efficiency, driving another wave of industry growth.

Open and virtualized RANs give mobile network operators the potential to reduce costs and increase vendor choice as they adopt 5G. Though still nascent, the virtualized RAN market is accelerating thanks to the technology’s alignment with carrier needs.

Leaders from Deloitte's 5G and Edge Computing practice, share their perspectives on five key questions around 5G in manufacturing and discuss how 5G will transform the manufacturing industry.

Deloitte University will use AT&T 5G network connectivity and edge computing services to enhance corporate learning programs and overall guest experiences.

5G's new standards for enterprise will open the floodgates to a host of previously infeasible applications, allowing for industrial- scale internet-of-things networks in factories, warehouses, ports, and more.

5G technology represents a real leap forward, promising vastly increased bandwidth. But carriers looking to capitalize with new offerings need to consider where and how to invest in equipment and more.

Leaders from Deloitte’s 5G, Edge Computing, and Internet of Things (loT) team and Government and Public Services industry practice discuss five key questions around 5G in the defense market and 5G for the DoD.
