10Gb/s Ethernet: switching to a Broadcom SFP+ module Back in April, I upgraded my home LAN to 10Gb/s. The in-wall cabling is CAT-6 or similar, so I had to use 10GBASE-T. Now, the router I'm using, and the switch in my study, provide 10Gb/s through SFP+ cages; that meant that they needed 10GBASE-T SFP+ modules in order to connect. That kind of module is known to run hot -- sometimes too hot to act…

The University of Texas at San Antonio has announced a new collaboration with T-Mobile to bring advanced 5G infrastructure to the university’s Center for Military Affiliated Students (CMAS), strengthening digital services and expanding support. The enhanced infrastructure will support high-capacity connectivity for up to 1,000 students and 50 staff members and will help power key […] The post T-M…

A laser system, previously tested on board the International Space Station, helped to stream video directly from the Artemis 2 mission on its way around the moon.

A new passive technology could help future wireless networks reach places where signals struggle today. Dead zones are one of the most persistent problems in wireless communications. Whether it’s a basement office, a warehouse aisle, a tunnel, or a crowded indoor venue, signals often struggle to reach every corner. The challenge is expected to grow [...]

With the launch of SpaceX into the IPO frontier today, the space industry has its newest publicly traded juggernaut.

Andreas Molisch's research advances modern wireless systems by improving how signals are modeled, transmitted and understood - from smartphones to autonomous vehicles. The post From 5G to ‘seeing around the corner’: USC Engineer Shapes the Present and Future of Wireless Communication appeared first on USC Viterbi | School of Engineering .

A spacecraft orbiting Earth recently completed a test that could influence the future of satellite communications. The technology performed well enough for NASA to expand the mission.

The deployment of 6G network requires multiple number of antennas at the base station with multiple signals that undergo constructive interference to create thinner beams with more energy so as to mitigate path loss. This will support higher data rates, lower latency levels, and improved energy efficiency. This paper proposes a phase-shifting technology for beamforming that focuses radio energy t…

NASA just demonstrated a technology that lets spacecraft communicate across multiple networks, paving the way for a more flexible and reliable space internet. NASA’s experimental Polylingual Experimental Terminal (PExT) has successfully completed its primary technology demonstration, marking an important step toward more flexible communications in space. Because the project met its original goals…

Walk through any telecom trade show and you will hear three terms thrown around interchangeably: OEM, ODM, JDM. Most buyers nod along. Most are getting it wrong — and it is costing them. Here is the reality: when a North American ISP signs a "manufacturing partnership" with an overseas supplier, they rarely know who actually owns the design, who controls the component sourcing, and who holds the …

Hi DEV community! 👋 We are Honlly Telecom — a 4G/5G CPE and MiFi manufacturer based in Xiamen, China. Since 2009, we have been designing and producing wireless broadband devices for ISPs, telecom operators, and distributors in 60+ countries. What we build 5G CPE (indoor & outdoor, SA/NSA, up to 4.6 Gbps) 4G MiFi (pocket WiFi with Cat 4 to Cat 16) Industrial routers (hardened, DIN-rail, -40°C to +…

As wireless connectivity demands continue to grow in stadiums, arenas and large public venues, network designers face an increasingly difficult balancing act. Fans expect seamless access to video streaming, social media, mobile ticketing, digital payments and a growing range of digital services, yet delivering the required capacity often means deploying hundreds or even thousands of antennas and …

China apparently didn’t issue any airspace or maritime notices ahead of the maiden launch of this rocket on Monday

Survey finds consumers cannot reliably access 4G or 5G, highlighting weaknesses in digital infrastructure More than four in 10 consumers struggle to access 4G or 5G on their mobile devices for at least half the time they are on the move, according to a survey that highlights the poor state of the UK’s digital infrastructure. The poll of more than 2,000 people who use digital devices found that 45…

Researchers have built a miniaturized microcomb-driven terahertz wireless communication system that's 90 times smaller than conventional chips to deliver record-breaking data-transfer speeds at ultrahigh frequencies.

As artificial intelligence continues to advance and becomes seemingly more sophisticated by the day, it presents new possibilities across many fields and industries, particularly within the telecom

If your IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications manuscript shows Under Review, here is what the editor and reviewers are likely doing and when to follow up.

Next week’s members-only event in Austin will feature technology leaders from Travis County and Williamson County.
