No Spectrum, No Problem: The potential of WiMAX on the unlicensed bands
(Now Available On-Demand)
Traditional telecom operators may have scooped up the prime broadband wireless licenses across the country, but there are still plenty of opportunities for wireless ISPs and competitive operators to jump in the 4G game—without investing in costly 4G spectrum. The unlicensed 5 GHz bands used for WiFi and the recently opened 3.65 GHz bands are both ripe for exploitation and they’re open to anyone with a broadband plan. In this Webinar, leading WiMAX equipment vendor Alvarion will provide a detailed overview of how to deploy a WiMAX IEEE 802.16e network over the unlicensed bands. Ashish Sharma of Alvarion will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the 5 GHz and 3.65 GHz bands and how to identify the best possible spectrum for use in any particular market. In this Webinar, participants will learn about pre-planning considerations and the nuts and bolts of an actual deployment, from radio frequency planning and optimal base station installation to managing quality of service and the end-user experience. Alvarion will also provide insight into how other operators have deployed WiMAX in unlicensed bands around the world and will present a specific case study. |

How to Implement HD-Voice Successfully
(Now Available On-Demand)
With the growing demand for High Definition-Voice to provide a more ‘life-like’ communications experience – and the HD-Voice market soon expected to grow to more than $3 billion a year-- a great user experience and crystal-clear HD-Voice quality is crucial for success. HD-Voice offers greater intelligibility, comfort and improved end-user experience without the audio fatigue that conference and telephone calls suffer today. However, a number of technical issues must be overcome in order to achieve a truly consistent HD-Voice sound:
Join us and Vice President of Business Development, Larry Golob, Global IP Solutions, to discuss issues HD-Voice issues relevant to enterprises, equipment manufacturers, application developers and service providers. |

Charting the Future for Wireline Rural Telcos
(Now Available On-Demand)
Rural service providers face enormous challenges as they seek to add new services, cope with access line loss, deliver broadband in high-cost areas and ward off competition from cable and Internet players. Many are also very much involved in trying to preserve the economic health of the towns and regions they serve. But rural service providers also have shown great resiliency and an ability to innovate in a nimble fashion that can serve this well. This Webcast will explore the immediate and future challenges for rural telcos and outline strategies for addressing those challenges. |

Preparing for LTE: What operators should be doing now to plan for LTE in the future | Sept. 24
(Now Available On-Demand)
Not every operator can be Verizon Wireless. While VZW may have the spectrum, the resources and the competitive inclination to launch a commercial long-term evolution network in 2010, most other operators are missing an item or two off that list. Many of those same operators, however, know that LTE is in their future roadmap, and while they won’t be breaking ground on their first 4G cell site for several years, there are several steps they can take to prepare for a future deployment short of deploying radio access gear. Many of those steps have the added advantage of benefiting the operator’s 2G and 3G operations. In this webinar, mobile consultancy Aircom will discuss how operators can prepare for the eventual leap to LTE, regardless of what their network and frequency resources are today. Aircom’s Consulting Practice Director Fabricio Martinez will detail how other global operators are making such preparations and how North American operators can do the same. Discussion topics will include:

Reduce Power Consumption and Cost for IP Networks | Sept. 28
(Now Available On-Demand)
With energy usage accounting for up to 50 percent of an operator’s operating expenses, energy costs on the rise, and IP technology delivering new bandwidth-intensive services to an ever growing number of subscribers, service providers need greater insight into where they can find efficiency in the network without impacting service delivery. One way to reduce costs is to minimize power consumption through functional consolidation at the IP edge. Learn about strategies for consolidating functions at the edge and innovative new energy efficiency metrics that will help you better measure and realize significant power savings by as much as 70% . Presented by Glen Hunt, Principal Analyst, Carrier Infrastructure, Current Analysis and Jeff Baher, Sr. Director, Product Marketing, Ericsson. |

Inside Telecom LIVE - How CDN Services Are Evolving
(Now Available On-Demand)
As core content delivery networking (CDN) functions face commoditization, CDN providers must adapt their services by layering on a mix of new value-adds - things like broader content management, live event management and mobile video solutions. Meanwhile, customer demands are shifting, giving CDNs greater opportunity to segment the market, and carriers are slowly seeping in to the already crowded market, making differentiation even more important. How can CDN providers - carriers, standalones and combinations of the two - position themselves to succeed as the CDN sector continues to evolve? Dan Rayburn, Principal Analyst with Frost & Sullivan, will map out the best strategies for serving this dynamic market. |
