Emerging Communications Technology
Fiber Optics
Fiber-optic internet, commonly called fiber internet or simply “fiber,” is a broadband connection that can reach speeds of up to 10 Gigabits per second (Gbps) in some areas.
The technology uses fiber-optic cable, which amazingly can send data as fast as about 70% the speed of light. In addition, fiber-optic cables are not as susceptible to severe weather conditions as other types of cables.
These sturdy fiber cables have minimal outages as compared to others. They also resist electrical interference.
Fiber is ideal for homes or businesses with multiple users connecting several devices at once.
Fiber service allows you to: Upload and download files quickly, Enjoy buffer-free online gaming and video chatting, Back up your entire hard drive to the cloud, and videos, in minutes instead of hours, Download a 2-hour HD movie in seconds, compared to waiting 30 minutes or more over a 20 Mbps DSL internet connection.
5G Wireless
5G is a revolution, an evolution, and a reality.
Naturally, when a technology like 5G is evolving, carriers and mobile operators face design spin ups to conform to the 3GPP standards.
There is a need to properly understand the potential of 5G in the Internet of Things (IoT) and telecommunications, connected vehicles, and augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) domains.
How next gen networks are blazing the 5G trail to higher speeds and scale with low latency. Why the IoT, connected vehicles, and AR/VR requires 5G connectivity.
Where virtualization in mobile networks can help address the need for scale and elasticity
What 5G New Radio (5G NR) is and how it will help create a 5G future.

LEO Satellite
Technically speaking, it’s a satellite internet system. But to average web users, it’s a potential godsend.
If you live in a city or a big suburb, you probably enjoy fast internet speeds, maybe at 1Gbps or beyond. But imagine enduring internet speeds at 20Mbps, or even as low as 0.8Mbps, every day.
What’s worse, your home only has one or two internet service providers to choose from, leaving you stranded with crummy service.
People across the US and the globe, are stuck in this very situation. Installing fiber in a city, and bringing Gigabit broadband to millions of customers is potentially lucrative, but not so much in a rural area home to only a few hundred people.
Holding significant potential and possibilities, Starlink is planning on continuing to expand its coverage in the foreseeable future.
