Cable-Tec Expo 2019

Post Conference Session: Network Convergence and Intelligent Connectivity in the 5G Era, Presented by AMDOCS (Registration required) (Room 243-244)

REGISTRATION REQUIRED: You may select this Post-Conference session during your Cable-Tec Expo Registration.

Consumers and enterprise customers alike are demanding “always on” and “high performing” connectivity.   Network use cases supporting low latency, increased bandwidth, and exponential device growth are already entering the market.  Although expected 5G benefits are driving some of these network use cases, it will not be the only network required.  MSOs must lead with intelligent connectivity across converged networks to support a wide range of use cases while continuing to lower cost/bit to win in tough competitive markets.  MSOs are in a unique position to lead in this new era by leveraging a unique set of existing network assets combined with new extensions such as MVNO relationships and CBRS.  

Imminent 5G deployments will transform mobile markets and represent an inflection point for all service providers.   The open architecture of 5G and associated technologies such as edge computing, IoT, and shared spectrum also opens the door for MSOs to drive true network convergence with intelligent connectivity.  To achieve network convergence, MSOs must innovate with new partnerships and adopt new monetization strategies, moving away from the legacy network models of proprietary and monolithic systems to intelligent, agile, and adaptive connectivity and supporting systems.  

Amdocs with the support of MSO Leaders, has built this workshop to explore different perspectives regarding practical steps for MSOs on the journey for network convergence and intelligent connectivity.  Explore how MSOs can extend networks with modular, open and standards-based solutions.  The workshop will also highlight innovative solutions across important areas; CBRS, edge compute, WI-Fi offload, MVNO, IOT, cloud, virtualization and more – all of which will help MSOs eliminate barriers to win with profitable offerings in the emerging 5G era.
