New research from ABI Research commissioned by Boldyn Networks has revealed that Neutral Host Networks (NHNs) are 38% greener and up to 47% more cost-effective than traditional standalone 5G deployments.
Increased network demand and higher frequencies used for 5G technology mean a higher densification of base station sites is required to support 5G network rollouts. Those requirements result in additional costs incurred from building and maintaining new 5G sites, as well as a negative impact on national power grids. As telco players continue their efforts to deliver an interconnected future, models of network sharing present new opportunities.

Wireless Logic highlights key security concerns among organisations and reveals a strong demand for enhanced security features from IoT connectivity providers, as enterprises seek to better protect their connected environments.
The report sheds light on the challenges of deploying global IoT solutions and the opportunities these present to their connectivity partners, with 89% saying the threats of cybersecurity breaches, or issues related to compliance as a result of cybersecurity issues, represent a pain point for their organisation. Other key findings include:
Connexin calls for government to define Low Power Wide Area Networks as CNI
14 November 2024
Connexin has called on the UK government to expand its focus beyond full fibre and 5G mobile by recognising Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN / LoRaWAN), which are often used to help connect small IoT style sensors and meters, as ‘critical infrastructure.’
Sites designated as Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) are those facilities, systems, sites, information, people, networks and processes, necessary for a country to function and upon which daily life depends. Being defined as CNI would afford such networks greater protection, much like the energy supply, water supply, transportation, health and other telecoms networks.

When it comes to storing enterprise data, the most important deciding factor varies widely from company to company…
Data volumes are notoriously booming across the world – current estimates say that today, some 402.74 million terabytes (or 0.4 zettabytes) of data are generated each day. Statista suggests that by 2025, more than 180 zettabytes of data will be generated daily, while the IDC has a similar forecast of 175 zettabytes per day in the same timeframe. Clearly, data is a big, booming business – so how will the UK’s enterprises manage?
