How Are New Trends Impacting The Size Of The Telecom Network Infrastructure Market?
Key players in the telecom network infrastructure market are paying attention to technological advancements such as the spread of 5G network and the adoption of edge computing to strengthen connectivity, reduce delay, and accommodate the rising necessity for data-rich applications across sectors. A Managed Fibre Network (MFN) is a facility offered by a provider who fully manages the formulation, setup, and continuous handling of an optical fibre network, letting enterprises enjoy swift connectivity without taking care of technical or operational parameters on their own. For example, in October 2024, the UK-based digital infrastructure company, EXA Infrastructure, rolled out its Managed Fibre Network (MFN) service to cater to the needs of enhanced connectivity and quicker service delivery times. The advantages of the MFN include the merits of dark fibre and equipment ownership such as optimal scalability at minimal unit economics, without bearing the related management, technical, and operational costs of internal delivery. The MFN solution of EXA Infrastructure allows organisations to bridge network gaps, link data centres and cable landing stations, and swiftly expand into markets with ease.
