Show Notes
In this episode of The 5G Factor, Shelly Kramer and fellow analyst Ron Westfall took a look at the recent developments in the 5G ecosystem that we think you might want to know about.
Their conversation covered:
- News that Dish plans on slowing its spending on 5G, at least for a bit. What's the rationale here?
- Speaking of Dish, the company has filed a petition with the FCC hoping to block T-Mobile's purchase of 600MHz spectrum – what's that all about?
- And speaking of spectrum, are politics getting in the way of unleashing 5G innovation, especially in rural and other underserved areas? Maybe.
- And they closed the show talking about Qvantel Flexx BSS, a cloud-native SaaS based BSS, which comes with pre-built out of the box use cases designed for quick deployments that will allow telcos to develop, manage, and monetize new services now available on AWS. CSPs should like this.
