At the Small Cell Americas, Dallas, I gave a presentation on how to optimize small-cell TCO, but using multiple interfaces, Wi-Fi, multi-sector equipment, infrastructure or backhaul sharing.

Wi-Fi can be-and increasingly is-more than an offload interface onto which operators direct traffic and forget about it. When adopting an integrated, carrier-grade Wi-Fi access platform with policy functionality in the core network, operators retain visibility into the subscriber experience, can support new services that add value to their mobile broadband plans, and increase revenues.

I have written extensively on how both small cells and Wi-Fi are needed to provide the capacity boost we need to meet the rapidly growing traffic load, and mostly expounded on the strategic and deployment merits of the argument. But any decision about how small cells and Wi-Fi will coexist in the sublayer depends to a great extent on the underlying economics.

Small cells and Wi-Fi are the most powerful tools that mobile operators have to increase data capacity in their networks. Our latest report looks at the business case for small cells and Wi-Fi coexistence the the mobile network sublayer.

Mobile networks are becoming primarily data networks, moving to a flatter and more open architecture that is inherently more vulnerable to security threats. See our new white paper on this topic.
