Communications networks enable digital services but they exist in the real world where power, cooling, energy efficiency and resiliency count. For example, the telecoms industry is highly attuned to the future potential of 5G to drive new services and business models. But getting to that 5G future obviously means significant ongoing investment in new infrastructure from the core to the edge. As well as the capital costs of new equipment, operational costs – including energy use and carbon emissions – are also becoming an increasing priority.
This program, presented by Vertiv, is an opportunity to find out more about those touch points between the digital and physical worlds. Vertiv works with global operators to help them optimise their critical infrastructure; to contain energy costs while ensuring reliability throughout the entire network, from access, core and edge sites. That can include everything from new energy-efficient cooling technology to edge data centers managed and maintained by cloud-based monitoring tools.
Presentations will cover initiatives such as energy-as-a-service where operators have effectively outsourced their energy management to Vertiv enabling them to focus on their core mission of network transformation and next generation services. We’ve also been investigating, internally and with research partners, into the true energy costs of 5G and how to realise efficiencies without impacting service levels.
