KNOXVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EnerNex, a CESI company, was recently engaged by DSTAR, a consortium of North American utilities, to develop and deliver a comprehensive study on the fifth generation (5G) digital cellular service and its potential impact on utility operations.
EnerNex has completed the study and delivered the final report which:
For DSTAR, the motivation for this report came from an interest from their utility members to hear from fellow utilities, telecommunications carriers, and related equipment providers and uncover their respective expectations, needs, and requirements with a focus on the impact of this technology.
The combination of research, analysis and dialog with study participants identified a number of areas of common need, dependence on standardization, and the requirement for continued collaboration.
"Emerging 5G wireless services promise last mile speeds comparable to coax and fiber, without the attachment, clearance, and right of way issues of wireline drop cables. With the demand for always connected, fixed and mobile users, 5G is happening at a faster pace than originally anticipated," stated Ron Chebra, Vice President of Grid Modernization with EnerNex. "There are realistic and practical opportunities for electric utilities to be both users and participants in this new world of communications."
