Redes libres, futuro conectado. Podría ser, tranquilamente, el eslogan de un partido político en plena campaña electoral. Pero no nos vamos a meter en política, es lo único que nos falta. Ya el mercado de las telecomunicaciones nos da mucho trabajo y nos moviliza bastante cuando el foco no se pone en el futuro. Por eso, que ahora hayan aparecido signos de miradas hacia adelante es casi casi un viso de esperanza sobre lo que puede suceder en el horizonte de este sector. Este viernes de podcast nos vamos a concentrar en el futuro y queremos que ustedes nos acompañen para enriquecer las miradas, como siempre. Antes de que claudiquemos y nos pongamos como políticos en campaña prometiendo lo que nunca llega.

Otra semana, otro ritual: esta ha sido la de la publicación del informe anual de la CNMC. En realidad es un poco más complicado: A principios de la semana tuvimos la publicación de los datos de la serie anual que corresponde al 24, y el viernes la publicación del propio informe en "papel" (bueno, #PDF). Ambas son fuentes imprescindibles que contienen datos que solo se encuentran en ellos y suponen siempre un "treasure trove" de datos. Hay que leer ambas cosas si aspiras a entender un poco #Telco #ESP. Nosotros hemos decidido abordar el problema por partes y, de momento, nos hemos concentrado en hacer dibujos sobre los datos de la serie anual. Hay muchas historias muy interesantes, pero destacamos estas: 1️⃣ Olas de velocidad y mercado dual: de los 100Mbps a los 500Mbps o 1Gbps 2️⃣ El tráfico y la parte derecha de su S. La industria ya no será igual 3️⃣ El despliegue #5G. A 15 años del #4G 4️⃣ Es el "Resto" quien más invierte. El #CAPEX ya no es lo que fue 5️⃣ El empleo tampoco 6️⃣ La transmisión se transforma. Y nada es lo que parece 7️⃣ La infraestructura física se está preparando para la consolidación Seguro que hay muchas más. Cuáles son las vuestras?

Todos los junios en #ESP vivimos el #RitualDeLaCobertura. Se trata de la publicación por parte de la SETELECO del informe anual de cobertura de #BandaAncha, que en esta ocasión muestra la foto de cobertura para diversas tecnologías fijas y móviles (Fibra, +1Gbps, #5G, #N78) a junio del año 24. #ESP presenta unos niveles de cumplimiento de los objetivos de la #DécadaDigital que hacen ser muy optimistas con respecto a su cumplimiento en el año 2030. Pero este año, además, se publican dos nuevas herramientas: un mapa de cobertura fija y otro de móvil que nos permiten ver a nivel de parcela catastral el tipo de cobertura y los operadores que lo ofrecen. Es un salto sin precedentes en la cantidad y profundidad de la información de la que disponen tanto las administraciones en general como la industria y sobre todo los ciudadanos. Sin embargo, los mapas no están exentos de desafíos y de dificultades para atrapar una realidad muy compleja. En #EU existen buenas prácticas a cerca de cómo publicar esta información como por ejemplo las que siguen Arcep y Ofcom, que, de alguna manera, muestran caminos que es posible seguir. Pero, más allá de de las herramientas con las que contemos para explicar la #InfraestructuraDigital, es necesario que reflexiones sobre los objetivos que debemos fijarnos a partir de ahora y cómo la industria puede cumplir su promesa implícita a la sociedad que, probablemente, incluya redes más capaces y más resilientes.

Hoy, domingo 220625 es el primer día del verano, ya que el solsticio se produjo en la madrugada del viernes al sábado. Y también es el día anterior a la víspera que casi toda europa se celebra como el #DíaDeSanJuan. Como siempre os cuento me sigue fascinando que estas tradiciones con varios milenios a sus espaldas tengan un efecto tan marcado sobre la infraestructura digital que seguramente definirá el SXXI, nuestras redes de acceso a Internet. Porque el efecto es muy importante. Las redes fijas disminuyen de manera notable el tráfico que cursan durante la época veraniega mientras que para las redes móviles el tráfico aumenta de manera muy importante. Sin embargo aunque los comportamientos sean contrarios el efecto final es el mismo, una reducción en las prestaciones promedio que disfrutan los clientes. Creemos que la industria tiene la capacidad y herramientas para transformar ese descenso de la calidad en una oportunidad para mejorar la captación y reducir el churn. Y creemos que el verano del 24 ya nos dio algunas pistas al respecto. Para desarrollar estas ideas usamos datos de CNMC, compilados en el #BarómetroTelco Nae, Ookla, nPerf, DE-CIX y citamos a analistas como Luke Kehoe Es el EP:207 de #Telco #SuperLigero especial verano. Y ahora que han acabado los colegios e institutos aprovecho para desearos #FelicesVacaciones (y #FelizSanJuan)

This year's judges of TM Forum's Excellence Awards give a behind the scenes glimpse into how they choose the winners and why.

Esta es la semana en la que terminan los colegios e institutos en #ESP así que, independientemente de lo que diga la posición del sol podemos decir que empieza el verano! Y, ahora que muchas familias se preparan para pasar sus vacaciones en pueblos y playas, transformando el funcionamiento de los servicios de banda ancha, es un momento excelente para reflexionar sobre el papel del #OperadorDeCercanía. Los más de 400 operadores que existen en #ESP (de los cuales hemos identificado más de 200 con presencia activa) tiene un impacto notable en la cobertura del servicio #BAF y, por supuesto en su penetración. Sabemos que en zonas rurales los municipios con más de 5 operadores presente tienen de media 22pp más de cobertura que en los que solo hay uno. En un mercado como #Telco #ESP no faltan desafíos uno de los principales para el #OperadorDeCercanía es el descenso continuado de los ingresos promedio por línea #FTTH. Junto a eso estar atrapados en un mercado dual con jugadores extremadamente eficientes a ambos extremos. Pero hay oportunidades, para el que sea capaz de atraparlas, los datos del #PanelDeHogares de la CNMC muestran, por primera vez, que los clientes son más sensibles a la calidad de los servicios #BAM y #BAF que a su precio. Y existe una oportunidad latente de llevar las áreas rurales (o algunas semiurbanas) a los niveles de penetración de las ciudades. Mientras tanto las mecánicas de concentración continúan activas y las agujas del #RelojDeLaConsolidación continúan avanzando.

Vikram Sinha, CEO of Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, speaks with Jeremy Au about his personal journey, the power of distribution, and why AI is not just another wave of telecom innovation. They retrace his career from selling mobile plans to leading a successful merger, discuss why distribution is still the biggest driver of growth in emerging markets, and unpack how AI must be localized, inclusive, and protected from bad actors. Vikram explains why telcos should stop blaming regulators, focus on customer experience, and build sovereign infrastructure to stay competitive. He shares how his leadership is shaped by integrity, purpose, and prioritizing people over process even when facing fear and uncertainty. 01:33 Career pivot from engineering to business: Vikram switched paths after his mother's passing and landed his first job at Coca-Cola while selling mobile plans during a summer break. 09:16 Learning integrity through a mistake: A personal audit error at Coca-Cola taught him to separate mistakes from dishonesty and to lead with transparency. 13:56 Distribution is telecom's real advantage: Vikram used FMCG distribution playbooks to build direct rural reach in India, Africa, and Indonesia. 19:01 4G fulfilled 3G's promises, AI will fulfill 5G's: He believes AI paired with low-latency 5G will unlock scalable breakthroughs in health, education, and productivity. 25:47 Early AI investment is essential: Vikram urges telcos to move beyond comfort zones and lead national infrastructure efforts to ensure sovereign digital capability. 26:57 Customer experience over excuses: Telcos must stop blaming regulators and instead deliver seamless service that earns long-term user trust. 44:06 Brave leadership in a merger turnaround: Despite industry odds, Vikram led a successful telco merger by focusing on mission, mindset, and team strength.

Nunca hemos sido fans de los datos de portabilidad. Son muy ruidosos y arrastran un fuerte componente estacional y además tienen a tomar la parte por el todo. Pero como necesitamos más luz para tratar de comprender una industria que está en un punto de inflexión y cada vez tenemos menos fuentes (los operadores reportan menos) los estamos mirando con renovado entusiasmo. Pensamos que si se mezclan con otros pueden ayudar a entender qué está pasando. Con ese espíritu actualizamos las gráficas de #PortabilityChurn y #ConvergenceRatio que calculamos cada mes con los datos mensuales de la CNMC (Comisión Nacional de los Mercados y la Competencia). En esta ocasión os proponemos también un juego: cuánto falta para que el 4 operador (Digi Spain Telecom) alcance al tercero Vodafone España. Y mirando ese "extraño síntoma", poder conjeturar para que el mercado afronte un nuevo cambio de estructura, ya que parece que la creación de MasOrange no ha sido suficiente. La respuesta? entre 1 y 4 años. Cuál es vuestro juego? Considerad estos datos un adelanto del hashtag#BarómetroTelco Nae, que publicaremos de manera inminente

Circet, a European leader in telecommunications infrastructure services, has improved safety, reduced emissions and cut operational costs by adopting a fully integrated telematics solution from Geotab Inc. ("Geotab") and Lytx Inc. ("Lytx"). In just three months, Circet and Geotab partnered to connect 3,000 vehicles across Circet's mixed fleet in Ireland and the UK, representing the biggest deployment of its kind in such a short installation window. Circet's fleet, which includes diesel and electric light and heavy commercial vehicles, required a solution capable of handling wide variability in makes, models and drivetrains. The combination of Geotab's global telematics data platform integrated deeply with the Lytx Surfsight video safety platform has given the Circet operations team full visibility into its entire fleet, delivering immediate impact. Within the first three months of this year, Circet recorded a 16% improvement in its company-wide driver safety score. Key safety metrics such as harsh braking, acceleration and cornering all improved, contributing to an average driver score 42% better than industry benchmarks. These improvements are largely due to the use of Geotab's Driver Safety Scorecard and near real-time driver feedback from the Lytx Surfsight dash cams, which alert drivers to risky behaviours and send incidents to the operations team forreview. Fuel efficiency has also improved. Circet's diesel vehicles are now operating at an average efficiency of 10 litres per 100 kilometres, 10% better than peer group leaders. Circet's transition to electric vehicles is delivering further savings. Over the first three months of 2025, electric vehicles (EVs) accounted for 3% of total fleet trips, covering more than 263,000 miles (424,000 kilometres). According to Geotab's Electric Vehicle Suitability Assessment (EVSA), Circet stands to save approximately €450,000 annually by expanding its electric fleet and swapping ICE vehicles for EV where appropriate. Based on results across all vehicle types so far this year, the Geotab and Lytx Surfsight solution could deliver over €2.7 million in fuel savings each year. Ray Verschoyle, Head of Transport Compliance at Circet said: "The combined Geotab and Lytx Surfsight solution has transformed how we manage our fleet. We now have the data we need to improve safety, cut fuel use, lower maintenance costs and operate more sustainably. Their focus on innovation and ability to integrate with our systems made them the perfect partners for our needs." Aaron Jarvis, Associate Vice President, EMEA at Geotab, added; "Circet chose Geotab because we offer more than just an off-the-shelf solution. Our continuous investment in product development, combined with strong local service and support, gave them confidence in our long-term value. "Our partnership with Lytx allows us to deliver fully integrated safety solutions, and our open platform meant we could align closely with Circet's internal systems and processes. It's another example of how Geotab's ecosystem can support a customer's needs today while future-proofing business operations." Deep integration to meet sustainability goals The Circet deployment includes Geotab telematics devices and Lytx Surfsight dash cameras with road-facing lenses, and the option of driver-facing ones, too. This hardware is backed by software integration with the Geotab platform, allowing Circet to unify vehicle tracking, video footage and safety data in one system. The rollout was supported directly by Geotab's local project team, who provided in-person training and implementation support to ensure a smooth transition. Geotab's data also supports Circet's sustainability goals. The company is using Geotab's certified Scope 1 emissions calculation tools to track fuel consumption and emissions reductions across both diesel and electric vehicles. This structured, data-driven approach is essential as Circet prepares for stricter ESG reporting requirements under EU le...

“For every dollar an enterprise spends on telecom services, they spend four to five dollars on IT. Helping partners capture that revenue starts with a conversation,” says Rick Mancinelli, CEO of C3 Complete. In this Channel Partners 2025 podcast, Technology Reseller News publisher Doug Green sits down with Mancinelli to explore how C3 Complete is uniquely positioned at the crossroads of two converging worlds: managed services and telecom. As both an MSP and a service provider to MSPs, C3 Complete offers a rare dual perspective—helping technology providers expand into telecom, and vice versa. Mancinelli shares how the industry has evolved from traditional break-fix IT and telco reselling models into a new era where MSPs are increasingly adding voice and connectivity to their offerings. At the same time, more traditional telecom partners are exploring managed services, seeking ways to offer a broader solution stack without taking on undue risk or complexity. C3 Complete helps partners navigate this transformation by providing a full suite of voice, connectivity, cloud, and managed IT services—without competing with the partner. This approach enables channel partners to expand revenue, increase customer retention, and become more deeply embedded in their clients' businesses. “Whether you're an MSP looking to add voice or a telco partner seeking to enter IT services,” says Mancinelli, “we're here to help you make that journey successfully.” About C3 Complete C3 Complete is a hybrid service provider and consultancy that delivers managed IT, cloud, voice, and connectivity services to businesses and MSPs across the U.S. By combining deep technical expertise with a partner-centric delivery model, C3 Complete enables resellers, MSPs, and telecom agents to expand their portfolios and grow recurring revenue streams.
