Leave a comment

WATERTOWN, Connecticut, July 30, 2020 — Siemon, a leading global network infrastructure specialist, is pleased to announce that its TERA cabling system supports 10BASE-T1L single-pair Ethernet (SPE), providing an easily-deployed, Standards-based infrastructure that simplifies cable management, reduces costs, and enables more efficient use of pathway space. As explained in a new Tech Brief developed by Siemon’s Valerie Maguire, Distinguished Engineer and Chief Editor of the IEEE Std 802.3cg™-2019 10 Mb/s Single-Pair Ethernet project, 10BASE-T1L operation over TERA SPE cabling offers many advantages over traditional/proprietary operational technology for monitoring and controlling simple, low-speed devices in commercial enterprise environments. Download the Tech Brief 

Developed by the IEEE P802.3cg 10 Mb/s Single-Pair Ethernet Task Force and approved in November 2019, 10BASE-T1L supports 10 Mb/s transmission over balanced single–pair cabling for connecting a wide range of sensors, actuators, relays, contactors and other low-speed devices used for building automation applications such as HVAC, security/access and lighting control. Adoption of 10BASE-T1L is a milestone step in enabling interoperability and networking of smart industrial IOT devices. The standard also supports optional dc power delivery using IEEE 802.3 power over data lines (PoDL).

Siemon’s fully-shielded TERA SPE cabling solution offers the benefits of superior noise immunity, virtually zero emissions and superior transmission headroom to ensure guaranteed support of 10BASE–T1L over distances of up to 400 meters without the need for field testing. In addition, all system components are rated for current-carrying capacity up to 2 amps. By leveraging its versatile cable-sharing abilities, the standards-based 4-pair TERA outlet is uniquely capable of facilitating plug-and-play connections to 10BASE-T1L and 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet devices and equipment using 4-pair, 2-pair and 1-pair TERA plugs and 4-pair field terminated category 6A Z-PLUG™ connectors. Siemon’s innovative Z-PLUG offers best-in-class termination speed and a shorter plug design for easily making custom-length connections between SPE controllers and 4-pair Ethernet control systems and servers.

Siemon’s TERA SPE cabling solution is compatible with traditional 1-pair screw terminal interface connections commonly found on single-pair Ethernet equipment and devices. Siemon’s applications support specialists can also work with customers to support other SPE equipment interface types. TERA cabling may be deployed in conventional or zone cabling configurations to support both SPE and 4-pair Ethernet applications. Pre-cabling permanent links from patch panels in the mechanical/telecommunications room to Siemon zone enclosures housing TERA outlets enables more efficient use of pathways and facilitates rapid deployment of connections to devices or outlets serving devices when moves, adds, or changes are required.

“As an active contributor to the development of single-pair Ethernet standards and technologies, Siemon is in a unique position to understand the cabling infrastructure requirements to support emerging 10BASE-T1L applications,” explained  Maguire. “Our industry-leading TERA cabling system provides a full end-to-end channel solution that supports SPE applications and equipment at distances up to 400 meters while simultaneously eliminating the need for field testing and providing the efficiency of a single interface to support both 4-pair and single-pair Ethernet connections.”

ZTE and Omdia co-host a global 5G SA webinar

Leave a comment

SHENZHEN, China, July 17, 2020 — ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a major international provider of telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology solutions for the Mobile Internet, today announced that it has hosted a live-streaming global 5G SA webinar in partnership with Omdia, a global leading technology research powerhouse.

At this webinar, experts from Omdia and ZTE have shared their insights on the global industry trends of 5G SA, and explored the various 5G SA deployment practices in China.

“56% of telecommunications service providers are preparing to deploy 5G core networks and 5G SA networks in the next 24 months,” said Dario Talmesio, Research Director of Service Providers Strategy at Omdia. “For that, China provides important learning opportunities from real-life implementations, as Chinese telcos are pioneering in 5G SA now.”

Jason Tu, Principle Scientist of NFV/SDN Products at ZTE, has elaborated the benefits of deploying 5G SA networks as well. “NSA/SA dual-mode terminals are now very popular in the market. The large -scale deployments of 5G SA networks in Chinese market have successfully verified the 5G SA end-to-end solutions,” said Jason.

“As the target architecture of 5G networks, 5G SA networks will help operators open a new 2B market. By selling different SLA-guaranteed network slicing to vertical industries, operators will obtain a new revenue source,” Jason added. He believed that speeding up the evolution to SA networks and even hopping directly to them seems to be a reasonable option now.

“With extensive experience in deploying 5G SA solutions in China, Asia and Europe, ZTE is well positioned to work with global operators and provide them with 5G common Core, SA radio networks or hybrid SA/NSA radio networks,” said Alex Wang, Managing Director of 5G RAN Solutions at ZTE.

ZTE has increased the coverage and capacity of 5G SA networks through FAST (FDD Assisted Super TDD), and has further enhanced the capability by virtue of low latency, mobile edge computing, network slicing and network sharing, according to Alex Wang.

Comments from Borje Ekholm, President and CEO of Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC)

The human toll caused by Covid-19, directly and indirectly through a weak economy, is increasingly clear. We continue to put safety of our people as first priority, and more than 80% of our employees are currently working from home. Despite the difficult environment we delivered a solid result. Q2 organic1 sales were flat and gross margin[2] improved to 38.2% (36.7%) YoY, including negative effects from strategic contracts. Free cash flow before M&A improved to SEK 3.2 (1.6) b. While the effects of Covid-19 create uncertainties, with current visibility we maintain the full-year targets for the Group.

Networks grew by 4% organically1 and the gross margin[2] was 40.5% (41.4%), absorbing a larger share of strategic contracts including 5G volumes in Mainland China where we also took an inventory write-down. The strengthened market position in Mainland China is strategically important as this market is expected to be a driver of critical future requirements and provide us with important scale. The Chinese 5G contracts are expected to be profitable over the life cycle, but had a negative contribution to gross margin in Q2.  

Investments in R&D have established us as a leader in 5G, with proven performance and cost of ownership benefits for our customers. We have continued to increase our market share in several markets by leveraging our competitive product portfolio. Profitability in earlier awarded strategic contracts has improved according to plan. We consider strategic contracts to be a natural part of the business and we will stop our forward looking commentary unless there is an extraordinary impact.  

Digital Services continues to execute on its turnaround plan with continuous improvements in the underlying business, and a Q2 gross margin2 reaching 43.6% (37.1%), supported by increased software sales. Sales is being impacted by the declining legacy portfolio and Covid-19-related market uncertainty and we expect this negative impact to continue throughout the year. There is however a strong demand for our cloud-native and 5G portfolio, and we have recorded several important tier 1 customer wins in 5G Core that will generate revenues in 2021 and beyond. Encouraged by the success of our offering, we have decided to accelerate R&D investments. These investments have a positive long-term value but will result in increased R&D costs. We are for this reason, in combination with the lower sales, likely to see a delay of some quarters in reaching the 2020 target of low single-digit margin for Digital Services, however, we are staying firm on our 2022 operating margin2 target of 10-12%.

Our patent licensing business continues to perform well due to our strong IPR portfolio. Licensing agreements are often multi-year and term-based and renewals normally require negotiations, particularly in conjunction with introducing new standards such as 5G. Next year, certain agreements are up for renewal and royalty payments can be temporarily affected. The inclusion of 5G patents is expected to strengthen our IPR business further. 

At Ericsson, we are committed to conducting business responsibly and with integrity. We continue our efforts to strengthen and improve our Ethics and Compliance program. In the quarter, the three-year term of the monitorship under the resolution with the U.S. authorities started. We look forward to working together with the independent compliance monitor and to benefit from his extensive experience. We fully believe this will help us reach our ambitions.

As we prepare to exit the crisis caused by Covid-19, there is a need to restart economies and make strategic, forward looking investments which we suggest must include the future digital infrastructure. We see many regions around the world increasing investments in this space and as a European company we are concerned that Europe will fall behind. As critical national infrastructure, 5G will be a key determinant for long-term competitiveness of the general economy, and act as a stimulant to accelerate economic growth, attract future investments and speed up technology innovation. I believe Europe must prioritize actions to incentivize investments in the digital infrastructure, to include lowering the cost and speeding up the availability of spectrum.

We are ready to deliver on the promises of 5G, based on our strong 5G portfolio and a resilient balance sheet. We remain positive on the longer-term outlook. Some customers are accelerating their investments while others are temporarily cautious. With current visibility we maintain the Group targets for 2020 and 2022.  

Stay healthy and well.

AMN Passes Milestone of 1 Billion Phone Calls Per Year

Leave a comment

LONDON, July 10, 2020 — Africa Mobile Networks (AMN) is pleased to announce that it now processes more than 1 billion phone calls annually for subscribers in previously unconnected rural areas in Sub-Saharan Africa.

AMN 20m tower in DRC
AMN 20m tower in DRC

In June 2020, AMN processed 91,623,222 voice calls, representing an annualised rate of 1.1 billion calls per annum, plus also nearly 6 terabytes (6,000 GB) of data. These services are provided to rural users in Sub-Saharan Africa who previously were mostly unconnected before AMN’s investment in the mobile network infrastructure. AMN now owns and operates approximately 1,200 base stations serving a population of 4 million people in 8 countries: Nigeria, DRC, Cameroon, Guinea, Zambia, Bissau, Liberia and Congo. The 2G/3G/4G mobile network services are provided by AMN on behalf of tier-1 licensed mobile network operators in each country.

AMN is installing new base stations at a rate of about 200 per month and by the end of 2020 will have nearly 2,000 base stations. AMN ultimately aims to deliver mobile network services to over 60 million people in up to 30 countries with more than 20,000 base stations. AMN’s solutions are 100% ubiquitous, without restrictions due to power or backhaul connectivity, and can be deployed at any location throughout the continent with no exceptions.

AMN’s success has been built on ultra-low capex and opex solutions, and an innovative, fully-turnkey Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) commercial model, which enables AMN to deliver mobile network services economically to smaller communities than has ever been possible before. AMN is now able to serve communities as small as 500 people with long-term economic sustainability. All of the major pan-African tier-1 operators partner with AMN to extend their network coverage deep into rural Africa. AMN offers the turnkey NaaS model with both revenue-share and opex commercial models for the operator, where revenue-share means no opex risk as well as no capex investment for the operator and the opex model enables sites to be built at any location specified by the operator.

About AMN

Africa Mobile Networks, established in 2013, is headquartered in the UK with subsidiary operating companies in 10 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. AMN’s vision is for no community of any size in Africa to be without affordable access to essential voice and data telecommunication services. AMN’s mission is to build more than 20,000 mobile network base stations, delivering 2G, 3G and 4G (and later 5G) telecom services to previously-unconnected communities. AMN is backed by Intelsat, operator of the world’s largest integrated satellite and terrestrial network, as an investor, shareholder and provider of access to high-quality and high-throughput satellite capacity across Africa. AMN enjoys a strong partnership with a global internet giant to accelerate the inclusion of 3G/4G services to provide rural users with access to the same information and social media applications enjoyed by the rest of the world.

Redtea Mobile Engages in Joint Effort to Implement nuSIM for IoT

Leave a comment

SINGAPORE, June 25, 2020 — Redtea Mobile, the pioneering connectivity solution provider has engaged in the joint effort to introduce nuSIM, the integrated SIM for IoT, which brings clear benefits for costs, power consumption and overall design simplicity by fully integrating the SIM functionality on a chipset.

The joint solution was developed in accordance with Deutsche Telekom’s open nuSIM specification and consists of a trusted application from Redtea Mobile in a Quectel BG95 module containing a Qualcomm® LTE 9205 chipset. The integrated nuSIM will be an important enabler, in particular for cost-efficient devices used in mobile IoT applications with a long lifespan, such as asset trackers or smart sensors.

“We are honored to work with leading industry players including Deutsche Telekom, Qualcomm Technologies, and Quectel to provide an innovative new means to simplify the deployment of ubiquitous connectivity in the IoT space,” said Xiaodong Guo, VP of Strategic Partnerships & Projects at Redtea Mobile. “Redtea Mobile is on a mission to simplify connectivity for a more productive world. By moving the SIM function into the chipset, mobile operator data is added through a secure process step at the time of module or device manufacturing and the end-customer gets instant connectivity without any additional actions.”

“Since introducing the nuSIM initiative at the beginning of last year, Deutsche Telekom has been working with various industry leading partners, including Redtea Mobile, on the basis of an open and interoperable specification,” said Stefan Kaliner, Head of UICC Development at Deutsche Telekom. “The trusted application developed by Redtea Mobile is the nuSIM OS, which provides the functionality to receive and process an encrypted nuSIM profile so that the result behaves exactly like a classical SIM.”

“The addition of Redtea Mobile’s trusted application as part of the integrated nuSIM solution on the Qualcomm 9205 LTE modem, leveraging the Qualcomm® Trusted Execution Environment, will help further support reliable, secure and optimized cellular connectivity for IoT applications globally,” said Vieri Vanghi, Vice President, Product Management, Qualcomm Europe, Inc. “We are proud of our collaboration with Redtea Mobile, Quectel and Deutsche Telekom as it will help drive increased adoption of nuSIM technology, which is necessary to develop the next generation of secure, cost-efficient and low-power IoT devices.

Siemon Expands its Line of Cost-Effective Rack and Cable Management Solutions with the New Value Vertical Cable Manager System

Leave a comment

WATERTOWN, Connecticut, June 24, 2020 — Siemon, a leading global network infrastructure specialist, today announced a key expansion to its family of cost-effective open rack and cable management solutions with the launch of its new Value Vertical Cable Manager (VVCM) system.  Specifically developed to integrate with Siemon’s 2-Post Value Rack, 19″ Rack-Mount Horizontal Cable Managers, and pathway support accessories to provide a fully unified equipment mounting and cable management solution, these new high-capacity Vertical Cable Managers deliver a wide array of user-friendly features not typically available at such an aggressive price point.

Easily assembled in as little as 5 minutes, the new 7′, 45U vertical managers mount directly to Siemon’s 2-Post Value Rack (RS1-07-S) as well as other Siemon racking options for a rapidly-deployable rack and cable management system.  Available in widths of 4″ (10cm), 6″ (15cm), 10″ (25cm) and 12″ (300cm), the VVCMs are offered in both single and double-sided versions to enable a broad range of infrastructure topologies, simultaneously supporting cord management for high-density patching fields, efficiently routing horizontal cables, mounting PDUs, and routing equipment power cords.

The VVCM’s ability to simplify both the deployment and long-term management of critical network cabling infrastructures is based on a number of Siemon innovations and exclusive features.  Unlike most contractor-grade vertical managers, which typically utilize difficult to operate snap-on covers, the Siemon VVCM line features dual-hinged doors with “one-finger” spring release clips at each corner.  This user-friendly design allows the doors to be opened in either direction to improve pathway accessibility and are much simpler to open, close, remove, and re-attach than snap-on covers typically offered at this price point. 

The VVCMs also feature Siemon’s unique, high-capacity cable management finger design.  Capable of managing large quantities of larger diameter cable and cords in high-density environments as challenging as 48-port, 1U Category 6A patch panels, the fingers align with each U space, providing clear pathways for transitioning into the vertical cable management space.

Within the vertical management space itself, the VVCM’s highly versatile divider plate design provides an array of mounting options for cable management accessories and PDUs, including quarter-turn managers and hook and loop tabs for efficient cable routing and bundle separation, fiber spools for simple slack management, and standard PDU button mounts.  The divider plates can also be reversed, allowing additional vertical space in either the front or rear of the manager as needed.

The VVCM line is delivered in ultra-compact, lightweight packaging to minimize shipping costs and storage space needs.  Leveraging a half-height modular design, the VVCM ships flat-packed to simplify jobsite material handling, while still offering extremely fast, straightforward assembly.

“With the VVCM, we were able to meet the market need for a cost-effective, feature-rich vertical cable management solution,” explained Peter Thickett, Siemon Product Manager – Data Center Systems. “Direct feedback from our installation partners and customers informed the whole project: ‘fix the difficult to use snap-on covers on typical competitor products, make it easier to ship, store, and assemble, make it flexible enough to adapt to real-world applications, and make it affordable for day-to-day jobs.’  We think we hit every mark.”

Thickett also highlighted that while the VVCM offers a broad range of features and benefits by itself, its full value is realized when viewed as an element of Siemon’s full Value Rack and Cable Management system. “The VVCM rounds out what was already a fairly comprehensive Value line of cost-effective cabling support solutions,” he explained.  “It was specifically designed to integrate with our 2-Post Value-Rack, Horizontal Cable Managers, and management accessories to deliver a completely unified, feature rich, and aggressively-priced equipment mounting and cable management solution.”

“5G development has entered a new phase,” Mr. Cai Mengbo said, “With over 80 5G networks commercially available worldwide, determining how to leverage 5G to create more value is currently a topic of great interest within the industry. Currently, 5G for business is still more of a branding concept, and more solid work needs to be done. To build a positive business cycle, work should be done in four aspects: technology, ecosystem, standards, and business model.

  1. Technology readiness: We must continuously innovate 5G technology and products to address the pain points of industries. For example, the 5G Super Uplink solution addresses various industries’ needs for optimal and always-available uplinks.
     
  2. Mature ecosystem: 5G industrial modules have been widely commercialized, and devices such as 5G cameras, 5G industrial CPE, and 5G industrial routers are now available in the market. Looking ahead, more commercial 5G devices are required for different industries in order to ensure the prosperity of the 5G ecosystem and lower the costs for industries to adopt 5G.
     
  3. Unified standards: In terms of 5G services for business, development from zero to one requires innovation, but further growth beyond one requires unified industry standards. Industries should take the lead to set 5G industry standards that allow 5G to be rapidly applied to industries.
     
  4. Shared commercial success: We must keep exploring business models of 5G services for business that can benefit all industry partners and help them grow together.”
