In this episode of The 5G Factor, a Futurum Tech Webcast series focused on news and happenings in the 5G and IoT ecosystem, I’m joined by my colleague and fellow analyst, Ron Westfall.
Our conversation today covered:
Elon Musk’s Starlink turning on 5G, protesting (this time) DISH Network’s proposal to use the 12 GHz radio spectrum for a 5G cellular network. AT&T, DISH Network, and CableLabs are among the top U.S. companies and organizations that have stepped forward to handle the O-RAN Alliance’s activities in North America this year. Why that is and what that means. The news of NEC acquiring Aspire Technology was big, and we explored the significance there as we move toward a global adoption of Open RAN 5G. T-Mobile and Oceus have formed a strategic alliance to delivery key offerings to the U.S. Government, starting with the DoD. Why that alliance makes sense, and what they’re focused on.
