Driving Successful Small Cell Deployment & Intelligent Network Design

Join 250+ telecoms professionals in Berlin in November to debate and discuss the fundamental issues facing small cell deployments. The 3rd Annual Small Cells Global Congress, the industry’s first event to focus on small cells, guarantees to provide forward thinking, topical and focused discussion needed to provide delegates with the understanding and vision needed to move confidently through this dynamic market.

The implementation of an effective small cell deployment strategy across networks is becoming crucial, and operators need to be not only ready for now, but prepared for the future. Can your network keep up in this fast paced and ever growing data storm?

  • 55% - Operators & Service Providers
  • 20% - Vendors
  • 10% – Analysts/Consultants
  • 10% – Government, Regulators, associations & standards bodies
  • 5% - Enterprise
As demand for capacity and coverage continues to grow, and mobile networks become increasingly heterogeneous, the role of backhaul in providing guaranteed QoS to subscribers should not be underestimated. Frequently cited as one of the biggest challenges that operators face, the Cellular Backhaul Summit 2013 will provide delegates with an open forum in which to debate and discuss the myriad of issues surrounding this critical network issue. Hot topics for discussion:
  • Enhancing the end-user experience with a comprehensive mobile backhaul network
  • Assessing the challenges of integrating backhaul solutions into existing 2G and 3G networks
  • Assessing the options for increasing backhaul efficiency
  • Examining the impact of WiFi and Small Cells on backhaul networks
  • Evaluating developments in the role of satellite backhaul - will it ever become a mainstream solution?
  • Backhaul business models: is there an opportunity here for fixed line operators?
  • More information coming soon...
