Celltech Helps Finnish Telco Deploy Vertiv™
DC Power Systems for Energy-Efficient
Rollout of 5G Network
Background
Fifth-generation mobile networks provide telecom operators with a potentially large new source of revenue — and one of its most challenging projects. To maximise the benefits of 5G, telecom operators need to deploy the networks as quickly and efficiently as possible, across urban and remote areas. One of the biggest challenges will be minimising the energy costs of the new networks as an increase in energy costs could erode telecom operators’ profit margins. Delivering ultra-low latency and high bandwidth at frequencies most compatible with 5G, requires dense networks with far more cell sites than current 3G and 4G architectures. These sites need powerful computing resources that potentially could double energy consumption at the tower, and fundamentally change the demands placed on the power and cooling infrastructure.
Results
- Reduced operating expenses of the 5G network
- Reduced energy costs of the 5G network
