Global Telecom DC Power System Market

Even though 5G brings tremendous benefits and value addition to end users, one must not forget the significant challenges it poses to telecom operators. There are many technology challenges related to 5G deployments such as mmWave, mid-band spectrum, non-Standalone to Standalone (NSA/SA) transition and so on. However, the fact remains that one of the fundamental challenges that network operators are highly concerned about is power related challenges as it has a direct and significant impact on network performance and cost optimization.

This leads us to the critical question – What should telecom operators do to overcome these challenges and how do they cope with these evolving power needs in the 5G era? This market report aims at providing insights on best practice recommendations that Frost & Sullivan has put together after a thorough analysis of the telecom power industry. These best practices can be broadly classified into four segments. The first one provides insights on how deal with and be ready for future capacity expansion. This is followed by insights on digital transformation of base stations and the impact of embedding intelligence into site energy network. The third segment deals with the importance of green energy and green sites and enhancing energy efficiency. Finally the last segment sheds light on the emerging trend of multi access edge computing (MEC) and provides insights on how to maximize site resource utilization.
