Para satisfacer dicha demanda\, los proveedores de servicios de comunicaciones (CSP) continúan con sus despliegues de redes de fibra al hogar (FTTH) ahora con soluciones de 10Gbps (XGSPON y otros). Sin embargo\, dado el entorno sumamente competitivo\, ya no es suficiente con desplegar fibra y vender ‘megas’. Para captar y retener clientes\, los operadores deben ofrecer una experiencia sin igual. ¡El medio de conexión utilizado por el usuario final es el aire\, y la tecnología es Wi-Fi! \nÚnase a Adtran y FBA LATAM en un seminario web interactivo sobre cómo los proveedores de servicios pueden redefinir la experiencia en el hogar con una solución Wi-Fi inteligente a la medida de los requerimientos del operador. En este seminario web\, cubriremos las tendencias del mercado y los desafíos que se presentan al operador a la hora de ofrecer un servicio Wi-Fi Premium residencial. También analizaremos los factores clave para garantizar el éxito del despliegue y los casos de uso que ayudan al CSP a optimizar la experiencia del cliente\, facilitando la monetización del Wi-Fi residencial gestionado. ¡Regístrese ahora!
