T-Mobile 5G-Advanced: Edge Control and T-Platform

T-Mobile 5G-Advanced: Edge Control and T-Platform

T-Mobile US expanded its Advanced Network Solutions portfolio with Edge Control and T-Platform, aiming to deliver private network-like performance over its nationwide 5G-Advanced footprint while simplifying how enterprises deploy, govern, and scale edge workloads. Edge Control enables cellular traffic to exit locally and flow directly into an enterprise’s edge compute environment, rather than traversing centralized cores or the public internet. T-Platform is T-Mobile’s customer portal for managing business services, including Edge Control. Traditional MEC offers low-latency access to hyperscaler edge zones but often relies on internet or backhaul paths that add jitter and sovereignty concerns.

Boldyn and Apeiroon fast-track portable private 5G modules

Boldyn and Apeiroon fast-track portable private 5G modules
Defense, public safety, transport, and critical infrastructure need deterministic connectivity that moves with the mission. Traditional rollouts struggle with time-to-service, power, and backhaul constraints. Portable, “all-in-one” 5G modules help bridge that gap by putting the radio, core, and management closer to the edge, enabling local breakout, resilience, and consistent QoS. With 3GPP Release 16/17 features maturing and SA-first private networks becoming standard, demand is shifting from pilots to field-ready systems that can be mounted in vehicles, worn as backpacks, or staged in temporary zones.

Telecom Equipment Market Rebounds +4% Global

Telecom Equipment Market Rebounds +4% Global
After two years of decline, telecom equipment spending is edging back into positive territory with early signs of a broad-based rebound. Dell’Oro Group’s preliminary data indicates worldwide telecom equipment revenues across six tracked sectors rose 4% year over year in the first half of 2025, with markets outside China up a stronger 8%. The rebound was not limited to a single pocket of spend, but three areas led the gains: mobile core networks, optical transport, and service provider routers and switches. By contrast, RAN remains comparatively muted in many markets as 5G macro buildouts mature.

India Mobile Congress 2025: Telecom GDP to 20% by 2037

India Mobile Congress 2025: Telecom GDP to 20% by 2037
India Mobile Congress 2025 in New Delhi framed a clear ambition: scale domestic innovation, shape 6G, and turn telecom into a larger engine of GDP growth. Leaders underscored a whole-of-government approach, with multiple ministries backing IMC and the Department of Telecommunications and the Cellular Operators Association of India co-hosting. India’s telecom and digital sector is estimated to contribute roughly 12–14% to GDP today. Leaders at IMC projected this could reach about 20% by the mid-2030s if India scales advanced connectivity, software-led services, and domestic manufacturing. India’s 6G push was tied to a potential GDP uplift exceeding a trillion dollars by 2035.

Telia and SJ Partner on 5G, IoT and Rail Resilience
Sweden’s largest passenger rail operator SJ is consolidating its communications estate with Telia to accelerate 5G, IoT, and crisis-readiness across trains, stations, depots, and corporate operations. The partnership positions Telia as SJ’s primary provider for nationwide mobile and fixed communications, combining public 5G/LTE coverage with managed services that support day‑to‑day rail operations and passenger experience. For passengers, more consistent Wi‑Fi backhaul and seamless digital services are the immediate wins; for operations, the prize is reliability and faster recovery when incidents occur. European operators are scaling beyond discrete connectivity pilots toward platforms that unify onboard systems, station sensors, and back‑office analytics.

AT&T 5G lights up NYC’s Joralemon Street Tunnel
AT&T has gone live on Boldyn Networks’ neutral-host infrastructure in New York’s Joralemon Street tunnel, with G line tunnel segments next in the rollout. AT&T customers can now access 5G mobile service through the 1.1-mile (1.8 km) Joralemon Street tunnel, the oldest underwater subway tunnel in New York City, which links the 4/5 lines between Borough Hall in Brooklyn and Bowling Green in Manhattan. Subway connectivity has shifted from convenience to critical infrastructure for safety, accessibility, and productivity. AT&T’s first-mover status sets a competitive benchmark; other national carriers (Verizon and T‑Mobile) are expected to follow as on-boarding progresses across the system.

OpenAI acqui-hires Roi for personalized consumer AI

OpenAI acqui-hires Roi for personalized consumer AI
OpenAI has acquired Roi, a New York–based personal finance startup founded in 2022 that built an AI companion to aggregate and advise on a user’s full financial footprint across stocks, crypto, DeFi, real estate, and NFTs. The move extends a year of acqui-hires at OpenAI, following Context.ai, Crossing Minds, and Alex. Personalization is becoming the moat for AI consumer products. Models are converging in capability, so durable advantage shifts to data, context, and engagement design. OpenAI’s Roi acqui-hire is less about a finance app and more about owning the personalization layer across consumer AI.

Moda Center 5G DAS Upgrade by American Tower

Moda Center 5G DAS Upgrade by American Tower
Large arenas now live or die on mobile performance: digital ticketing, cashless concessions, in-seat ordering, real-time replays, and social sharing all hinge on dense, resilient RF. With nearly 20,000 seats and a heavy calendar of sports and concerts, the Moda Center joins a cohort of tier-one venues investing in 5G as core infrastructure rather than a nice-to-have. American Tower’s role as a neutral host is noteworthy; it positions the venue to support multiple operators on a shared platform, spreading cost, accelerating carrier onboarding, and improving consistency across the “Rose Quarter,” including the adjacent Veterans’ Memorial Coliseum.

Why 95% of GenAI Pilots Fail to Scale Across Industries, Including Telecom

Is AI Underperforming in Telecom? Challenges, Use Cases & the Road Ahead
AI is everywhere in telecom, yet most pilots never make it into production because the industry’s data, tooling, and operating models are not ready for scaled automation. Recent industry research suggests that about 95% of AI pilots in telecom fail to scale beyond proofs of concept. Leaders are moving from pilots to platforms by embedding AI in the systems that run the business and anchoring every initiative to measurable outcomes. Telecom AI will not scale through pilots alone; it scales when embedded in the systems that run revenue, experience, and networks.
