T-Mobile 5G Network Slicing at Las Vegas Grand Prix

T-Mobile 5G Network Slicing at Las Vegas Grand Prix
The Las Vegas Grand Prix is more than a spectacle this year—it’s a real-world benchmark for what 5G Standalone can deliver under extreme density, with T-Mobile integrating slicing, private 5G and edge video into broadcast, venue ops and public safety workflows. Broadcast teams are ingesting 360-degree and drone feeds over 5G with edge processing, venue commerce runs on a dedicated slice, and police leverage a 5G-connected drone for situational awareness. These deployments illustrate a practical blueprint for monetizing 5G SA and edge in venues, media, public safety and large events.

AI Data Centers: How Much Renewable Energy?

IEA: 0B will go to data centers, surpassing oil. Can solar, storage, and new microgrids deliver 24/7 carbon-free power for the AI boom?
Renewables are emerging as the default option for new AI campuses, but the share that is truly carbon-free around the clock will hinge on siting, storage, and market design. Annual REC matching is no longer sufficient for leading buyers; the bar is shifting toward hourly, 24/7 carbon-free energy matching initiatives. Yet diurnal and seasonal variability limits how much of a site’s load can be met by solar and batteries alone, especially in non-sunny regions or during prolonged weather events. Expect mixed portfolios: on-site renewables and batteries, off-site PPAs (solar and wind), emerging long-duration storage, and grid purchases backed by hourly certificates where available.

Amazon Leo: LEO satellite broadband rebrand

Amazon Leo: LEO satellite broadband rebrand
Amazon has moved its low Earth orbit broadband effort out of code-name mode and into a market-facing brand with strategic implications for telecom and enterprise buyers. Project Kuiper is now Amazon Leo, a direct reference to the low Earth orbit constellation underpinning the service. The rebrand signals a transition from R&D to commercial execution. Amazon reports more than 150 satellites in orbit today—roughly 153 by recent counts—following a string of successful launches and a completed prototype mission. The company says it will light up service as it adds coverage and capacity.

Private 5G Network Security: 4 Pillars for Securing Private 5G, LTE & CBRS
Private cellular networks are transforming industrial operations, but securing private 5G, LTE, and CBRS infrastructure requires more than legacy IT/OT tools. This whitepaper by TeckNexus and sponsored by OneLayer outlines a 4-pillar framework to protect critical systems, offering clear guidance for evaluating security vendors, deploying zero trust, and integrating IT, OT, and IoT under a unified, secure-by-design architecture.

Private 5G CBTC Validation: CAF and Cellnex

Private 5G CBTC Validation: CAF and Cellnex
CAF’s signalling division and Cellnex demonstrated that OPTIO, a modular and multi-bearer CBTC platform, operates reliably on a private 5G network in both lab and field conditions, including challenging scenarios such as tunnels. The system already supports Wi‑Fi and LTE; adding 5G confirms a multi-access design that lets operators choose the right bearer per line, phase, or location. Private 5G brings ultra-low latency, higher capacity, stronger QoS control, and end-to-end security under the operator’s domain. The project received European co-financing via the Recovery and Resilience Facility under Spain’s UNICO Sectorial 2023 program, underscoring public support for digital rail modernization.

6 GHz Band (n104) Validated for 5G-Advanced

6 GHz Band (n104) Validated for 5G-Advanced
A new pilot in Spain shows that the upper 6 GHz band can deliver 5G-class coverage with far higher capacity, positioning it as a prime spectrum option for 5G-Advanced and 6G. The 6.425–7.125 GHz range (3GPP Band n104) is the last sizable mid-band window that is not tied to legacy mobile use in Europe. The trial found that with higher-order massive MIMO and active antennas, the upper 6 GHz layer can match the practical coverage of 3.5 GHz from existing macro sites. European regulatory clarity, device support and refined coexistence rules are the next critical catalysts for scale.

Ericsson deploys Neutral Host 5G Small Cells at 10 World Trade

Ericsson deploys Neutral Host 5G Small Cells at 10 World Trade
A new neutral host 5G deployment at 10 World Trade in Boston’s Seaport sets a practical blueprint for scalable, multi-operator indoor connectivity in Class A commercial real estate. Most mobile traffic is generated indoors, yet macro networks struggle to penetrate dense, energy-efficient buildings. The 10 World Trade deployment—delivered by Boston Global Investors (BGI) with Aspen Venue Partners and Ericsson – addresses all three pressures with a small-cell-based, neutral host design that multiple operators can share while also supporting private 5G and future network slicing. The model aligns with broader industry trends: 3GPP-based indoor systems, shared infrastructure economics, and spectrum agility that includes CBRS in the U.S.

SoftBank Sells Nvidia Stake to Fund AI Infrastructure Bets

SoftBank Sells Nvidia Stake to Fund AI Infrastructure Bets
SoftBank has exited Nvidia and is redirecting billions into AI platforms and infrastructure, signaling where it believes the next phase of value will concentrate. SoftBank sold its remaining 32.1 million Nvidia shares in October for approximately $5.83 billion, and also disclosed a separate $9.17 billion sale of T-Mobile US shares as part of a broader reallocation into artificial intelligence. The proceeds are earmarked for a significant expansion of SoftBank’s AI portfolio, including a major investment in OpenAI and potential participation in “Stargate,” a next-generation AI data center initiative co-developed by OpenAI and Oracle. Despite exiting Nvidia’s equity, SoftBank retains about 90% ownership of Arm.

Anthropic plans a multi-year, $50 billion program to develop custom data center campuses in the United States, beginning with Texas and New York and with additional sites to follow. The initial wave targets 2026 go-lives, with an estimated 800 permanent jobs and roughly 2,400 construction roles tied to the program.

HPE launches Quantum Scaling Alliance for fault-tolerant quantum computing

HPE launches Quantum Scaling Alliance for fault-tolerant quantum computing
Hewlett Packard Enterprise and seven partners have formed a global consortium to accelerate fault-tolerant, hybrid quantum computing that can be deployed alongside today’s high performance computing and semiconductor ecosystems. Dr. Masoud Mohseni of HPE Labs serves as quantum system architect, coordinating a full-stack effort to design a practically useful, cost-effective “quantum supercomputer,” with the near-term emphasis on hybrid integration, error-correction maturity, and manufacturability. The Alliance is structuring work around the most stubborn barriers to scale: error correction, orchestration with classical systems, and semiconductor-grade design and manufacturing. Aligning supercomputing and semiconductor leaders around a single roadmap increases the odds of reaching fault tolerance on economically viable timelines.

Ookla Speedtest Pulse Wi‑Fi Analyzer for Field Techs

Ookla Speedtest Pulse Wi‑Fi Analyzer for Field Techs
Ookla’s new handheld analyzer targets the in-building Wi‑Fi blind spot that drives churn, repeat truck rolls, and enterprise downtime. Across fiber, DOCSIS 4.0, fixed wireless access, and emerging LEO satellite, access speeds to the premises keep rising, but customer satisfaction is slipping because the experience is now judged over Wi‑Fi inside the site. Households run dozens of wireless devices, ethernet ports are disappearing, and enterprises are shifting to wireless‑first architectures on Wi‑Fi 6/6E today and Wi‑Fi 7 (802.11be) next. Surveys show most households faced Wi‑Fi issues in the past year, a large share required a truck roll, and a meaningful portion of those visits did not resolve the issue on the first attempt—fueling churn and avoidable Opex.
