Ericsson’s latest Mobility Report points to a clear shift: operators are turning 5G capabilities into differentiated, SLA-backed services rather than just selling more data at higher speeds. After years of building coverage and capacity, 5G networks are mature enough to commercialize features like guaranteed latency, uplink boosts, and application-aware prioritization.
Verizon will cut more than 13,000 roles as part of a broader restructuring aimed at simplifying operations and resetting its cost base for the next phase of growth. The reduction represents roughly 13% of Verizon’s reported ~100,000 full-time workforce and about one-fifth of its non-union management ranks, according to figures
Nokia is restructuring to monetize the AI supercycle across fixed and mobile networks while tightening focus on profitable growth. The company’s new strategy concentrates on: accelerating in AI and cloud; leading the next era of mobile with AI-native networks and 6G; co-innovating with customers and partners; concentrating capital where it
Cisco’s intent to acquire Seattle-based NeuralFabric signals a decisive shift toward practical, domain-specific AI that meets real-world constraints around data, compliance, and infrastructure. Cisco plans to acquire NeuralFabric, an enterprise AI platform focused on building small language models (SLMs) from proprietary data with deployment across SaaS and on-premises environments. By
Multiple media reports say Verizon plans to cut roughly 15,000 jobs and shift about 180–200 company-owned stores to franchise operators, marking its most significant restructuring to date. According to reports citing unnamed sources, Verizon is preparing layoffs equal to about 15% of its workforce, with some estimates suggesting cuts could
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
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
A new joint plan from Vodafone and AST SpaceMobile aims to deliver satellite broadband directly to standard smartphones across Europe under a sovereign operational model. AST SpaceMobile has submitted plans through Germany for a space-based network designed to provide broadband directly to devices across Europe. Operations would run through SatCo,
Google has unveiled next‑generation TPU accelerators with up to a 4x performance boost and secured a multiyear Anthropic commitment reportedly worth billions, signaling a new phase in AI infrastructure competition. Google introduced new Tensor Processing Units that deliver roughly four times the performance of prior generations for training and inference
BT Group and its consumer brand EE plan to offer a Starlink-powered home broadband product focused on underserved locations where fixed-line build is constrained by terrain, sparsity, or cost. The service targets “ultrafast” downlink performance, with Starlink capable of delivering up to roughly 280 Mbps and latency in the low
Apple is reportedly nearing a deal to license Google’s Gemini for Siri, a move that would reshape assistant architectures and near-term AI roadmaps across devices and networks. Multiple reports indicate Apple is close to licensing a custom version of Google’s Gemini model, reportedly at a scale of around 1.2 trillion

  • L4S and the Future of Real-Time Performance in 5G and Beyond
    by Zahid Ghadialy (The 3G4G Blog) on July 24, 2025

    As mobile networks continue to evolve to support increasingly immersive and responsive services, the importance of consistent low latency has never been greater. Whether it is cloud gaming, extended reality, remote machine operation or real-time collaboration, all these applications rely on the ability to react instantly to user input. The slightest delay can affect the user experience, making the role of the network even more critical.While 5G has introduced major improvements in radio latency and overall throughput, many time-critical applications are still affected by a factor that is often overlooked - queuing delay. This occurs when packets build up in buffers before they are forwarded, creating spikes in delay and jitter. Traditional methods for congestion control, such as those based on packet loss, are too slow to react, especially in mobile environments where network conditions can change rapidly.Low Latency, Low Loss and Scalable Throughput (L4S), is a new network innovation […]

  • The Evolution of 3GPP 5G Network Slice and Service Types (SSTs)
    by Zahid Ghadialy (The 3G4G Blog) on July 1, 2025

    The concept of network slicing has been one of the standout features in 5G (no pun intended). It allows operators to offer logically isolated networks over shared infrastructure, each tailored for specific applications or services. These slices are identified using a combination of the Slice/Service Type (SST) and an optional Slice Differentiator (SD), together forming what is called a Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (S-NSSAI).To ensure global interoperability and support for roaming scenarios, 3GPP standardises a set of SST values. These are intended to provide common ground across public land mobile networks for the most prevalent slice types. Over the course of different 3GPP releases, the list of standardised SST values has grown to reflect emerging use cases and evolving requirements.The foundation was laid in Release 15, where the first three SST values were introduced. SST 1 represents enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), suitable for high throughput services […]
