Five signals your fiber network data is becoming a bottleneck. We put together a short reflection guide for fiber network teams. It covers the operational patterns that tend to show up when data stops scaling alongside the network. No scoring. No sales pitch. Just five things that are worth knowing about before they become harder to untangle. Download it here: https://hubs.ly/Q047ZlNW0

Wrapped up a productive meeting at 3GPP CT3#145 in Goa, shaping key directions for Release‑20 and laying the groundwork for 6G protocol studies. As a Nokia delegate, I’m proud of the strong cross‑industry collaboration and the concrete outcomes we achieved. 🚀 Rel‑20 Momentum CT3 progressed a wide range of Rel‑20 topics and the several important 5GA WIDs were agreed, including: Metaverse Enablement Phase‑2 NBI/API Enhancements Deferred AM Policies in the 5GC Energy Efficiency Phase‑2 Dynamic NITZ Update Model Evaluation Metrics Enhancement Network Automation Enablers SEALDD-Ph3 CT3 also endorsed the WIDs for Indirect Network Sharing Phase‑2, SBI Protocol Improvements, and IMS–IETF alignment. Also, CT3 discussed across CAPIF-Ph4, Ambient IoT Phase‑2, and UE Policy. 📌 With these WIDs now agreed and endorsed, CT3 will formally begin Release‑20 Stage‑3 work from the next CT3 meeting. 🔮 #6G Study Foundations The Penholders were assigned for major 6G SIDs like 6G #AI protocols, 6G Network capability exposure. These will drive Stage‑3 oriented protocol baselines in sync with SA studies. A special appreciation to #TSDSI and the wider Indian ecosystem whose strong engagement made CT3#145 in Goa especially impactful. India’s contributions continue to strengthen its leadership in global telecom standardization. Looking forward to CT3#146 as Rel‑20 work officially kicks off and 6G study activities advance further. #3GPP #Nokia #CT3 #Release20 #5GAdvanced #6G #6GStandards #StandardsDevelopment #TSDSI #TelecomStandards #NetworkAutomation #MetaverseEnablement #NBI #GlobalCollaboration #TelecomInnovation #AI

This morning’s deep dive into Quality of Service (QoS) was a clear reminder of how essential it is to maintain performance and reliability in networked systems. what i deducted · QoS isn’t just about bandwidth—it’s about intelligently prioritizing traffic to ensure critical applications run smoothly, especially under load. · Mechanisms like traffic classification, queuing, and policing help manage delay, jitter, and packet loss. · Without QoS, voice, video, and real-time data can degrade, impacting user experience and business operations. In today’s hybrid and cloud-heavy environments, implementing thoughtful QoS policies is no longer optional—it’s foundational for consistent service delivery. What strategies are you using to manage network performance? #QualityOfService #QoS #Networking #ITInfrastructure #NetworkManagement #TechLearning

“Unlocking 26 GHz: The Hidden Goldmine for FWA and Spectrum Cost Optimization” Most of us dismissed the 26 GHz band as high-frequency clutter — limited coverage, poor economics. But what if I told you that this overlooked band has silently reshaped India’s telecom cost structure and opened new doors for Fixed Wireless Access? 📉 Operators reduced their SUC liabilities dramatically by acquiring this band — Bharti Airtel’s savings alone run into ₹40,000 Cr NPV. ⚙️ No SAR limits. No PD rules (yet). 📡 EMF relaxation now permits 5W BTS power — ideal for rooftop or pole-mounted FWA. 📶 Use Wi-Fi PHY over licensed mmWave to deliver multi-Gbps at low cost — skip the 5G tax and scale smarter. 🔁 Replace SUC-heavy E-band & microwave links using the same 26 GHz band. 🎥 Watch the full breakdown –https://lnkd.in/gHFUncTB 📄 Articles & charts in the video description If you're working on spectrum strategy, 5G rollout, or last-mile access — this is a perspective you can't afford to miss. #26GHz #FWA #mmWave #SpectrumPolicy #TelecomStrategy #Jio #Airtel #DigitalIndia #Backhaul #WiGig #PolicyReform #5GIndia #EMFRules #TelecomInnovation
