Interesting to see sessions with infrastructure & tower companies at #Fyuz22
Here @DBRG_Group which owns all sorts of relevant assets like @freshwavegroup @boingo & @ZayoGroup
Talking about investment angle on OpenRAN etc
Big footprint now
Aiming for more in Asia in future as well
@AtlasEdgeDC is a JV with @libertyglobal
Looking at the details on @boingo & @AtlasEdgeDC I can join the dots between Digital Bridge and #OpenRAN / #OpenWiFi
Interesting panel on NaaS & #neutralhost moderated by @NowickiDave (who I’ve known for years)
AMN = Africa Mobile Networks
IpT = Internet para Todos
Canpro is also an African operator
IFC is an investment firm
CloudExt is a neutral host from India
TIP doing Neutral Host NAS
I’d probably call fixed NH “open access”
Apparently more coming on in-building NH next year
IpT is a MORAN-based network-sharing in Peru with 3 MNO tenants & covering about 3 million rural dwellers
AMN has 3000 sites across Africa, covering 9m people
Offers cellular NaaS
Interesting analysis by @IFC_org / @WorldBank of #neutralhost
Presentation from @MTNGroup based mostly in Africa
Interesting that <50% of subs actively use data services
That puts a different view on the usual “connecting the unconnected” discourse
Unclear if the gap is because of cost or willingness
This is the Mumbai metro neutral host model
Not currently using OpenRAN based
Looks like a massive DAS-type setup
This is for the stations rather than trackside but nonetheless very impressive. Significant opportunity in other situations as well
@cloud_extel
This is @AmericanTowerUS approach to open access fibre for FTTX and other uses
