Thought Leadership Talk

Why Energy Management is critical to 5G Success

Jon Abbott, Telecom Strategic Clients Director at Vertiv

Even though 5G networks are up to 90% more efficient than their 4G predecessors, they still require far more energy due to increased network density, heavy reliance on IT systems, and increased network use and accelerated traffic growth.

How can telecommunications operators address these challenges?

Vertiv’s expert, Jon Abbott, Telecom Strategic Clients Director at Vertiv, will further elaborate on this topic during the Thought Leadership Talk at Datacenter Forum’s online event on Energy on April 8th, 2021.

He will talk about the challenges that today’s telcos are facing and outlines several best practices aimed at mitigating increasing energy consumption, emissions, and costs.
