Cloud-native broadband networking for the mass market isn’t in the horizon, it’s here now!  XGS PON fiber delivering 8.0 Gbit or higher combined with emerging technologies like Wi-Fi 7 are enabling a paradigm shift in home broadband networking. Wi-Fi with even faster speeds, lower latency, MultiLink MLO technologies that allow all radios to run concurrent and with groundbreaking range improvements so that extenders are not needed in most use cases. And the network is more than just a conduit for broadband connectivity, it’s the pathway to a true customer-first experience.

Includes real-world examples of how some of the world’s largest operators have deployed hardware and software solutions to innovate faster and integrate technologies across all their networks—fiber, DSL, cable, FWA—on the same stack and the same orchestration platform. 

Learn how they’re using real-time, cloud-based network orchestration and management on legacy equipment to deploy and manage services across the network, to gain real-time visibility into the state of the network to detect threats and performance issues without sacrificing speed, and to ensure a customer-first experience.

The session will cover a range of technologies, including software-defined networking, edge-to-cloud network virtualization, digital twins, and more.

Learnings include:

1. Evolving existing networks—using legacy equipment—to meet the needs of tomorrow’s home broadband networks.
2. Applying enterprise networking technologies such as digital twins to broadband networks, replicating networks in the cloud to monitor performance, detect threats, and stress test new services and solutions.
3. How other operators are using real-time orchestration to manage services and devices across all their networks.
4. How all that works together to enable a superior, customer-first network experience, allowing them to forge a “trusted advisor” relationship with their customers.
