Telefonica Business Solutions, a provider of a wide range of integrated communication solutions for the B2B market, has deployed Nokia‘s virtualized router technology in a live network for improved delivery of Telefonica’s global telecommunication services. In particular, Telefonica said it is augmenting its IP infrastructure with the deployment of virtualized Provider Edge routers (vPE) to increase its network reach, accelerate deployment of its enterprise virtual private network (VPN) services, and extend its service offerings to new points of presence within Spain and to new countries.
P3 Group announced the launch of a new drone program in the United States that promises to increase the speed, safety, and accuracy of its radio frequency (RF) analysis and reporting for the wireless industry.
The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) will initially be deployed by P3’s interference hunting team, which tracks down and eliminates sources of RF interference that can result in everything from minor static and dropped calls to interruptions in vital data connections and throughput. P3 will assign a two-person team to each drone — a pilot to fly it via remote control and an engineer to monitor the live data stream to look for interference issues. Common sources of interference include Wi-Fi routers, LED signs and billboards, security cameras and even florescent lights, P3 said.
