Someone is out there looking for attention. RIFF Quotas? lol
forget all this fighting and find ways to save IT
"We're looked up to."
Oh really, then why is it that 87% of the USA workforce looks down on your and is not unionized and does not want to be unionized. Your sense of reality is really twisted. Get back on your meds, you need them.
We're looked up to.
"@2isb, you're easily torqued up. troll and chum the waters a little and you appear writing manifestos. What's with the teenage-like "OMG, OMG". You write stutter?

It would appear you can't debate with any facts therefor you attack with personal attacks. So typical, name calling and personal attacks, just shows you have no game, you got nothing! You just proved again why union/leftest are looked down on.

No, Microwave is not old tech, it's high-tech and it's used all over the world for backhaul encluding Verizon's own networks!

IMO, in order to monetize 5G, widespread coverage is required. The current map is sketchy at best. A myriad of technologies including fiber are integral to building out our network which requires a constant stream of large capital dollars. COVID-19's impact on the company's bottom line has accelerated the pressure on reductions needed to feed the beast. The company can't make any significant labor reductions until the current contract expires in 2023, so management across the board will take it on the chin this time.
@2isb+17b3FE6G, yawn down-voting junior.
WW II de-commissioned microwave antennas is REALLY living in the past,
but don't let reality cloud your "logic".
OMG OMG... some fool post an article from 2015... to prove their pathetic point. 5 years of tech is a life time. In our area we just started deploying 5G two weeks ago! You can't make any conclusions based an article that is almost 6 years old. Look at what Musk is doing with his SAT clusters to bring very high speed to people with NO WIRES!!!! Man, some people don't have a clue in live in the past. Next thing these union clowns will try to tell us are POTS lines are the wave of the future! There is always some joker fool in the crowd!
How's this article to be interpreted @1kps?

I hate to inform you, but we are already using 5G "Gnode B" as backhaul. Also there is a thing called 6G and the 6G roadmap can and will use 5G intercell networks as the backhaul thus removing the need for any fiber. Yes, fiber will be used to connect RAN hubs, but now longer used to connect cell nodes. The fact is planting wire and fiber in the ground is costly hence Microwave and most of Europe's cell networks are connected via microwave, not fiber or copper. Europe is installing 5G now using both 5G as it's own backhaul and microwave. We here at ATT are doing both as well.
I am anF design engineer for ATT
The below information is not completely correct and not up to speed with what we are deploying in the networks right now, this very day. Maybe you landline people need to bone up on what is going on in the cellular world before you repeat such nonsense.
"@1fyb+17b3FE6GS Here is an article on backhaul requirements. https://www.intechopen.com/books/broadband-communications-networks-recent-advances-and-lessons-from-practice/5g-backhaul-requirements-challenges-and-emerging-technologies
This is a quote from that article, Fiber still first choice, so wireline going nowhere, sorry to disappoint you.
[So, it is obvious that the fiber connection will be first choice for backhaul if it is available otherwise we have to look for other backhaul solution that meets the requirements of 5G networks.] "
@1kbu+ "COVID has not affected IT people as much as the people in Retail."
IT is viewed as a cost center by Hans, therefore a target for reductions.

Maybe Verizon will become a pure wireless company and get rid of that old school telephone company part of their business? Wireless is where it's at, not putting copper, coax, and fiber in the ground. With 5G back-haul backbone there will be no more need for fiber to go out to the cell sites anymore. Just slap up a 5G back-haul and your 4G and 5G nodes are all on the ring. So just maybe Verizon will get rid of, spin off the wire-line assets and just go pure wireless. This would also deal with the million pound shackle around Verizon's neck, i.e. the Union, which is holding Verizon into yesteryear and not allowing them to move into the 21 century.
Decrease in customers = RIFs
COVID-19 = sell wireline
Hello 5g home, look ma - no hands.
COVID has not affected IT people as much as the people in Retail. That could change of course. Lets see how it plays out
Decrease in customers = RIFs
COVID-19 = RIFs
Get your resume ready. It's a tough market out there. Over 30 million of the 155 million out of a job in USA. Save your money, you will need it since there is a delay in receiving your unemployment check.
IT under pressure
Doors closing for shanks and vivid
Less results and more costs
