Nancy Shemwell, chief operating officer at Trilogy Networks noted that some of the advanced services that will require low latency will be offered through a mix of networks, which can face a challenge from a technical perspective.
“If we look at the market today, there is an outpour of advanced services, and they’re going to start to require low latency. But if you look at the network, it’s really a mishmash of networks. Because you’re talking about fiber, you’re talking about copper, you’re talking about wireless. You have multiple generations, both public and private and satellite,” Shemwell said during a presentation at the Mobile Edge Forum 2022, adding that management of all of these elements is “extraordinarily” cumbersome and expensive.
