If it wasn’t clear before, the last number of years have crystallized the fact that internet access is an absolute necessity in the contemporary world. With people working from home, streaming services instead of using traditional media platforms, and vital services such as education, banking and telemedicine being administered online – many are calling for Internet access to be classed alongside power and water as a household utility. Those who do not have Internet are isolated and their access to equal opportunities is at risk.

Despite the explosion in demand, governments and service providers are struggling to keep up as global supply chains continue to feel the squeeze and budgetary constraints prevail.

So how can service providers navigate around the supply chain crunch, cut lead times and costs for deployment?

Open, disaggregated Networking may be the answer.

EPS Global Head of Sales for North America, Alan Fagan sat down with Jeff Hummel and Nate Gerencser from MetaLINK, as well as Jeff Schuele from IP ArchiTechs to discuss our collaboration and success in slashing lead times and delivering for MetaLINK's expansion.
