overhype and then you get to let down overhype and then you get to let down it's like that that's the new wave it's like that that's the new wave it's like that that's the new wave that's our trough but you know here's that's our trough but you know here's that's our trough but you know here's the thing that really bothers me though the thing that really bothers me though the thing that really bothers me though I mean isn't the definition of stupid I mean isn't the definition of stupid I mean isn't the definition of stupid doing the same thing over and over again doing the same thing over and over again doing the same thing over and over again expecting something different yeah expecting something different yeah expecting something different yeah that's just stupid right I I I mean you that's just stupid right I I I mean you that's just stupid right I I I mean you know I'm just saying I'm just saying know I'm just saying I'm just saying know I'm just saying I'm just saying everyone's just like everyone's just everyone's just like everyone's just everyone's just like everyone's just like hoping that they hang their hat on like hoping that they hang their hat on like hoping that they hang their hat on something that sticks you know let's something that sticks you know let's something that sticks you know let's let's pray like this is the year let's pray like this is the year let's pray like this is the year Something's Gonna we're gonna like Something's Gonna we're gonna like Something's Gonna we're gonna like invest all of this we're going to put invest all of this we're going to put invest all of this we're going to put our marketing out and then boom it's G our marketing out and then boom it's G our marketing out and then boom it's G to happen and we haven't seen that in a to happen and we haven't seen that in a to happen and we haven't seen that in a long time so imagine if we told mobile long time so imagine if we told mobile long time so imagine if we told mobile operators around the world take what operators around the world take what operators around the world take what investment dollars you have don't buy investment dollars you have don't buy investment dollars you have don't buy new new new Spectrum keep using LTE Advanced but Spectrum keep using LTE Advanced but Spectrum keep using LTE Advanced but then increase your coverage incre speed then increase your coverage incre speed then increase your coverage incre speed up spend your money on back hall you up spend your money on back hall you up spend your money on back hall you know and front hall you know go to Mid know and front hall you know go to Mid know and front hall you know go to Mid Hall 100 gigabit you know the ethernet Hall 100 gigabit you know the ethernet Hall 100 gigabit you know the ethernet in the front hall get more in the front hall get more in the front hall get more fiber you you'll get more love from your fiber you you'll get more love from your fiber you you'll get more love from your customers when you do those kind of customers when you do those kind of customers when you do those kind of things that aren't as public and they're things that aren't as public and they're things that aren't as public and they're not as expensive as uh Spectrum auction not as expensive as uh Spectrum auction not as expensive as uh Spectrum auction you know not as expensive but they're you know not as expensive but they're you know not as expensive but they're also just not making money off also just not making money off also just not making money off smartphones you know yeah that that smartphones you know yeah that that smartphones you know yeah that that volume we're tapped out um they're just volume we're tapped out um they're just volume we're tapped out um they're just so they're you know that's why I say so they're you know that's why I say so they're you know that's why I say they're throwing stuff against the walls they're throwing stuff against the walls they're throwing stuff against the walls is they're like what is the next big is they're like what is the next big is they're like what is the next big thing because they just aren't making thing because they just aren't making thing because they just aren't making money off of just general talk text and
-
money off of just general talk text and money off of just general talk text and data traffic right now with data traffic right now with data traffic right now with consumers yeah consumers yeah consumers yeah so when I heard you I thought more more so when I heard you I thought more more so when I heard you I thought more more that you were saying you know uh 5G you that you were saying you know uh 5G you that you were saying you know uh 5G you know um later do it later I I didn't know um later do it later I I didn't know um later do it later I I didn't think think think or save it save it for later exact opposite you know yeah step later exact opposite you know yeah step over say step over 5G and just go 3 over say step over 5G and just go 3 over say step over 5G and just go 3 through six huh yeah well what do you through six huh yeah well what do you through six huh yeah well what do you think that do you think that they're think that do you think that they're think that do you think that they're just like uh because for a while it was just like uh because for a while it was just like uh because for a while it was oh my gosh we just got to compete with oh my gosh we just got to compete with oh my gosh we just got to compete with China we're so far behind you know we're China we're so far behind you know we're China we're so far behind you know we're just and you know like what what's the just and you know like what what's the just and you know like what what's the driving Factor why they just keep going driving Factor why they just keep going driving Factor why they just keep going and going and going but they're just not and going and going but they're just not and going and going but they're just not really presenting the use cases that really presenting the use cases that really presenting the use cases that actually are bringing in the kind of actually are bringing in the kind of actually are bringing in the kind of Revenue that they were expecting well I Revenue that they were expecting well I Revenue that they were expecting well I I mean I think it's it's the Detachment I mean I think it's it's the Detachment I mean I think it's it's the Detachment between what's actually happening with between what's actually happening with between what's actually happening with the technology and the standards and the technology and the standards and the technology and the standards and then how people have been talking about then how people have been talking about then how people have been talking about so one of the big one of my main points so one of the big one of my main points so one of the big one of my main points as a panelist on that discussion was um as a panelist on that discussion was um as a panelist on that discussion was um it's not the Technology's fault it's it's not the Technology's fault it's it's not the Technology's fault it's people's fault you know people the PE people's fault you know people the PE people's fault you know people the PE people the ones who got everything wrong people the ones who got everything wrong people the ones who got everything wrong you know um reality is reality and when you know um reality is reality and when you know um reality is reality and when um operators push back on sa and say no um operators push back on sa and say no um operators push back on sa and say no we we need some kind of brid a we we need some kind of brid a we we need some kind of brid a transitionary stage it is what it is and transitionary stage it is what it is and transitionary stage it is what it is and you know some of the technologists might you know some of the technologists might you know some of the technologists might have um really hated to have having to
-
have um really hated to have having to have um really hated to have having to accommodate all these different options accommodate all these different options accommodate all these different options and stuff like that for transition and stuff like that for transition and stuff like that for transition toward more of a pure 5G network but toward more of a pure 5G network but toward more of a pure 5G network but these are Necessities that you had to these are Necessities that you had to these are Necessities that you had to factor into your road map and they did factor into your road map and they did factor into your road map and they did and so they you know they got some and so they you know they got some and so they you know they got some things wrong where people got everything things wrong where people got everything things wrong where people got everything wrong was all the freaking wrong was all the freaking wrong was all the freaking InterContinental you know ballistic you InterContinental you know ballistic you InterContinental you know ballistic you know sidewalk surgery crap you know that know sidewalk surgery crap you know that know sidewalk surgery crap you know that that just didn't make any sense and that just didn't make any sense and that just didn't make any sense and nobody said that it didn't make any nobody said that it didn't make any nobody said that it didn't make any sense they actually went and started sense they actually went and started sense they actually went and started marketing using that as like the killer marketing using that as like the killer marketing using that as like the killer use case it's like yeah use case it's like yeah use case it's like yeah no can I take us back to guitars yeah no can I take us back to guitars yeah no can I take us back to guitars yeah okay you can okay you can okay you can fry so I just want you know because it's fry so I just want you know because it's fry so I just want you know because it's appropo to some of the stuff that appropo to some of the stuff that appropo to some of the stuff that Leonard plays when he's playing Van Leonard plays when he's playing Van Leonard plays when he's playing Van Halen So went and saw the Foo Fighters Halen So went and saw the Foo Fighters Halen So went and saw the Foo Fighters in Seattle on Sunday night you know and in Seattle on Sunday night you know and in Seattle on Sunday night you know and they did figh f fighters and what was they did figh f fighters and what was they did figh f fighters and what was cool though is you know I mean Dave Gro cool though is you know I mean Dave Gro cool though is you know I mean Dave Gro is a rock and roll historian he has all is a rock and roll historian he has all is a rock and roll historian he has all these documentaries and everything and these documentaries and everything and these documentaries and everything and he tries to lift all boats he's he wants he tries to lift all boats he's he wants he tries to lift all boats he's he wants Rock You Know feel like sometimes Rock You Know feel like sometimes Rock You Know feel like sometimes they're keeping rock and roll alive but they're keeping rock and roll alive but they're keeping rock and roll alive but there was a part in the show maybe there was a part in the show maybe there was a part in the show maybe onethird into it where he's saying do onethird into it where he's saying do onethird into it where he's saying do you guys love rock and roll and and then you guys love rock and roll and and then you guys love rock and roll and and then they start playing singing riffs from they start playing singing riffs from they start playing singing riffs from different from Aussie Osborne from different from Aussie Osborne from different from Aussie Osborne from Metallica and everything but their Metallica and everything but their Metallica and everything but their league guitarist Chris shifflet he gets

many apps all about the apps with LTE many apps all about the apps with LTE and don't forget it's still all about and don't forget it's still all about and don't forget it's still all about the apps with the apps with the apps with anything building when you're talking anything building when you're talking anything building when you're talking about public Cloud when you're talking about public Cloud when you're talking about public Cloud when you're talking about for anything you're talking about about for anything you're talking about about for anything you're talking about in Tech they are all in service to the in Tech they are all in service to the in Tech they are all in service to the apps yeah yeah you know it's all just apps yeah yeah you know it's all just apps yeah yeah you know it's all just Plumbing it's all infrastructure but Plumbing it's all infrastructure but Plumbing it's all infrastructure but don't forget it's all it's always about don't forget it's all it's always about don't forget it's all it's always about the apps could be a backend system the apps could be a backend system the apps could be a backend system powering your app that's on your phone powering your app that's on your phone powering your app that's on your phone yeah everything we do don't don't ever yeah everything we do don't don't ever yeah everything we do don't don't ever forget that yeah yeah and that's a good forget that yeah yeah and that's a good forget that yeah yeah and that's a good point doesn't necessarily have to be on point doesn't necessarily have to be on point doesn't necessarily have to be on the phone it's distributed right and the phone it's distributed right and the phone it's distributed right and then if you look at all these new then if you look at all these new then if you look at all these new endpoints they trying to introduce into endpoints they trying to introduce into endpoints they trying to introduce into the quote unquote 5G or mobile wireless the quote unquote 5G or mobile wireless the quote unquote 5G or mobile wireless fold it might not necessarily be the fold it might not necessarily be the fold it might not necessarily be the case that the application so you know case that the application so you know case that the application so you know runs solely on the endpoint device it runs solely on the endpoint device it runs solely on the endpoint device it could be distributed and I I don't think could be distributed and I I don't think could be distributed and I I don't think that the thinking has gone past sort of that the thinking has gone past sort of that the thinking has gone past sort of the Legacy way of thinking of things the Legacy way of thinking of things the Legacy way of thinking of things like one of the things I brought up was like one of the things I brought up was like one of the things I brought up was you know everything is 6G actually just you know everything is 6G actually just you know everything is 6G actually just like a rehashing or a progressive like a rehashing or a progressive like a rehashing or a progressive incremental progression of things that incremental progression of things that incremental progression of things that are in 5G and actually five 5G are in 5G and actually five 5G are in 5G and actually five 5G Advanced it looks pretty damn good you Advanced it looks pretty damn good you Advanced it looks pretty damn good you know I mean there's a lot in there for know I mean there's a lot in there for know I mean there's a lot in there for the industry to work through in terms of the industry to work through in terms of the industry to work through in terms of like scope of new stuff as well as depth like scope of new stuff as well as depth like scope of new stuff as well as depth of complexity and capability right but
-
of complexity and capability right but of complexity and capability right but what about Uplink and then you know the what about Uplink and then you know the what about Uplink and then you know the panel actually oh yeah it's like panel actually oh yeah it's like panel actually oh yeah it's like look everyone's been talking about look everyone's been talking about look everyone's been talking about cellular for industrial but all the data cellular for industrial but all the data cellular for industrial but all the data goes up it doesn't come down right it's goes up it doesn't come down right it's goes up it doesn't come down right it's like what part of that did you guys like what part of that did you guys like what part of that did you guys never understand you know yes whenever I never understand you know yes whenever I never understand you know yes whenever I hear someone I'm not goingon to name his hear someone I'm not goingon to name his hear someone I'm not goingon to name his name talk about how critical 5G is for name talk about how critical 5G is for name talk about how critical 5G is for factories and Industry 40 and they start factories and Industry 40 and they start factories and Industry 40 and they start talking a good game about using 5G in a talking a good game about using 5G in a talking a good game about using 5G in a factory and I'm just like yeah we've factory and I'm just like yeah we've factory and I'm just like yeah we've that never went anywhere it didn't go that never went anywhere it didn't go that never went anywhere it didn't go anywhere and we've tried that already anywhere and we've tried that already anywhere and we've tried that already and you know good luck beating ethernet and you know good luck beating ethernet and you know good luck beating ethernet oh yeah yeah yeah EET and then Wi-Fi you oh yeah yeah yeah EET and then Wi-Fi you oh yeah yeah yeah EET and then Wi-Fi you know 78 coming up you know it's just know 78 coming up you know it's just know 78 coming up you know it's just yeah Wi-Fi 7 is smoking fast and you yeah Wi-Fi 7 is smoking fast and you yeah Wi-Fi 7 is smoking fast and you know ethernet is always the backbone know ethernet is always the backbone know ethernet is always the backbone there yeah you know fiber fiber is your there yeah you know fiber fiber is your there yeah you know fiber fiber is your long range backbone across the planet long range backbone across the planet long range backbone across the planet ethernet is your backbone when you're ethernet is your backbone when you're ethernet is your backbone when you're inside the Factory The Corporation inside the Factory The Corporation inside the Factory The Corporation because remember even when you're do the because remember even when you're do the because remember even when you're do the Wi-Fi there's still wires inside the Wi-Fi there's still wires inside the Wi-Fi there's still wires inside the ceiling and everything the Wi-Fi access ceiling and everything the Wi-Fi access ceiling and everything the Wi-Fi access point is just kind of like the last mile point is just kind of like the last mile point is just kind of like the last mile or the last 20 feet yeah yeah absolutely or the last 20 feet yeah yeah absolutely or the last 20 feet yeah yeah absolutely hey hey Rob um we've had some hey hey Rob um we've had some hey hey Rob um we've had some conversation in the past too uh I conversation in the past too uh I conversation in the past too uh I remember you talking about when we were remember you talking about when we were remember you talking about when we were talking about uh cloud and Edge um you talking about uh cloud and Edge um you talking about uh cloud and Edge um you were talking about instead of thinking were talking about instead of thinking were talking about instead of thinking about the edge and then the cloud about the edge and then the cloud about the edge and then the cloud somewhere there could be applications somewhere there could be applications somewhere there could be applications running even at the uh like at the running even at the uh like at the running even at the uh like at the towers maybe even right uh closer to
-
towers maybe even right uh closer to towers maybe even right uh closer to whatever happened to that in in in 5G whatever happened to that in in in 5G whatever happened to that in in in 5G did you have any examples of anybody did you have any examples of anybody did you have any examples of anybody doing doing doing people dabbled in it yeah so the Telos people dabbled in it yeah so the Telos people dabbled in it yeah so the Telos the mobile operators relate to the party the mobile operators relate to the party the mobile operators relate to the party around Edge people like you who were around Edge people like you who were around Edge people like you who were doing Edge in a factory with a doing Edge in a factory with a doing Edge in a factory with a ruggedized little PC talking to machines ruggedized little PC talking to machines ruggedized little PC talking to machines you were early that's what the edge you were early that's what the edge you were early that's what the edge really was early on and so the mobile really was early on and so the mobile really was early on and so the mobile operators they're scrambling let's just operators they're scrambling let's just operators they're scrambling let's just call it what it is the call it what it is the call it what it is the marketers for Ericson and Nokia and marketers for Ericson and Nokia and marketers for Ericson and Nokia and everybody we like well wait a second everybody we like well wait a second everybody we like well wait a second what if we do Edge compute at the base what if we do Edge compute at the base what if we do Edge compute at the base St station like that little Shack at the St station like that little Shack at the St station like that little Shack at the bottom of the cell tower what if we put bottom of the cell tower what if we put bottom of the cell tower what if we put Edge compute there and so the latency Edge compute there and so the latency Edge compute there and so the latency from The Source wherever it is to there from The Source wherever it is to there from The Source wherever it is to there if you're using cellular is only if you're using cellular is only if you're using cellular is only whatever one millisecond or something whatever one millisecond or something whatever one millisecond or something like that versus waiting till you get like that versus waiting till you get like that versus waiting till you get all the way to your distant Cloud right all the way to your distant Cloud right all the way to your distant Cloud right yep yep and so there was a lot of talk yep yep and so there was a lot of talk yep yep and so there was a lot of talk and Verizon did stuff with maybe with and Verizon did stuff with maybe with and Verizon did stuff with maybe with AWS Outpost and some you know a bunch of AWS Outpost and some you know a bunch of AWS Outpost and some you know a bunch of people did collapse wavelength yeah I don't yeah I don't know and the biggest use case at least know and the biggest use case at least know and the biggest use case at least the first use case wasn't anything the first use case wasn't anything the first use case wasn't anything industrial or important it was gaming it multiplayer gaming and wanting gaming it multiplayer gaming and wanting faster pain times when you're playing a faster pain times when you're playing a faster pain times when you're playing a multiplayer game you know against people multiplayer game you know against people multiplayer game you know against people and so they said well if I'm just going and so they said well if I'm just going and so they said well if I'm just going to the edge and it's right here at the

to the edge and it's right here at the to the edge and it's right here at the you know out my window then it's going you know out my window then it's going you know out my window then it's going to be faster but what is the problem to be faster but what is the problem to be faster but what is the problem with the edge folks it with the edge folks it with the edge folks it sucks oh oh orchestration of the edge it sucks oh oh orchestration of the edge it sucks oh oh orchestration of the edge it means instead of All of Us video game means instead of All of Us video game means instead of All of Us video game players going to One Cloud what it means players going to One Cloud what it means players going to One Cloud what it means is all us video game players are going is all us video game players are going is all us video game players are going to thousands millions of little Edge to thousands millions of little Edge to thousands millions of little Edge locations and all those Edge locations locations and all those Edge locations locations and all those Edge locations have to be pushed out from Some central have to be pushed out from Some central have to be pushed out from Some central place updated and then they still have place updated and then they still have place updated and then they still have to talk do something to get to because to talk do something to get to because to talk do something to get to because my Edge is gonna be different than Jan's my Edge is gonna be different than Jan's my Edge is gonna be different than Jan's Edge yeah and it's actually way more Edge yeah and it's actually way more Edge yeah and it's actually way more complex than the cloud it's you haven't complex than the cloud it's you haven't complex than the cloud it's you haven't even gotten into pricing model what's it even gotten into pricing model what's it even gotten into pricing model what's it kind of how you gonna price something to kind of how you gonna price something to kind of how you gonna price something to a company that wants to do it yeah yeah a company that wants to do it yeah yeah a company that wants to do it yeah yeah so I so I I still believe you know Edge so I so I I still believe you know Edge so I so I I still believe you know Edge on the factory near the source of the on the factory near the source of the on the factory near the source of the machine makes sense but Edge and base machine makes sense but Edge and base machine makes sense but Edge and base stations that's tough yeah I don't think stations that's tough yeah I don't think stations that's tough yeah I don't think think it's worth the money that you'd think it's worth the money that you'd think it's worth the money that you'd have to spend and the complexity of the have to spend and the complexity of the have to spend and the complexity of the software to make it work is hard I don't software to make it work is hard I don't software to make it work is hard I don't think so either I don't think so either think so either I don't think so either think so either I don't think so either but it's just I was just interested but it's just I was just interested but it's just I was just interested because you talked about it that it was because you talked about it that it was because you talked about it that it was part of the standard and it'll be part of the standard and it'll be part of the standard and it'll be interesting to see if somebody done interesting to see if somebody done interesting to see if somebody done anything with it well you know I mean it anything with it well you know I mean it anything with it well you know I mean it goes back to the this willingness to goes back to the this willingness to goes back to the this willingness to think Beyond um the capability sets and think Beyond um the capability sets and think Beyond um the capability sets and then you know the services that you then you know the services that you then you know the services that you would offer with a a Mac right or mobile

would offer with a a Mac right or mobile would offer with a a Mac right or mobile um Ed um Ed um Ed Computing thing and when all of your Computing thing and when all of your Computing thing and when all of your stuff is let's say um down link focused stuff is let's say um down link focused stuff is let's say um down link focused and pushing stuff out well you already and pushing stuff out well you already and pushing stuff out well you already have CDN to do that so you know but you have CDN to do that so you know but you have CDN to do that so you know but you know this lack of focus know this lack of focus know this lack of focus on what is required for the on what is required for the on what is required for the other other other theoretical you know killer use cases if theoretical you know killer use cases if theoretical you know killer use cases if you're not going to make that you're not going to make that you're not going to make that fundamental change to you know also make fundamental change to you know also make fundamental change to you know also make things going up better things going up better things going up better um that that edge Computing model that um that that edge Computing model that um that that edge Computing model that opportunity just disappears right opportunity just disappears right opportunity just disappears right because and you know one of the things I because and you know one of the things I because and you know one of the things I brought up is it's the hype that gets brought up is it's the hype that gets brought up is it's the hype that gets everything wrong not the technology is everything wrong not the technology is everything wrong not the technology is you guys believed in all of these uh you guys believed in all of these uh you guys believed in all of these uh hypothetical killer use cases but you hypothetical killer use cases but you hypothetical killer use cases but you never thought through well what would never thought through well what would never thought through well what would have to change in the network and you have to change in the network and you have to change in the network and you haven't made the change in the network haven't made the change in the network haven't made the change in the network and so all this industrial stuff will and so all this industrial stuff will and so all this industrial stuff will probably not happen until the probably not happen until the probably not happen until the there's unless let's say 5G Advance there's unless let's say 5G Advance there's unless let's say 5G Advance actually drives a fundamental shift in actually drives a fundamental shift in actually drives a fundamental shift in the way we design certain networks right the way we design certain networks right the way we design certain networks right that are let's say Uplink dependent build a reverse dependent build a reverse CDN yeah oh and so if all your iot CDN yeah oh and so if all your iot CDN yeah oh and so if all your iot devices are on Prem and your skyscraper devices are on Prem and your skyscraper devices are on Prem and your skyscraper or your factory or your corporate campus or your factory or your corporate campus or your factory or your corporate campus or whatever and they're all up but maybe or whatever and they're all up but maybe or whatever and they're all up but maybe they all need to go up to an edge they all need to go up to an edge they all need to go up to an edge location that looks like a router or

location that looks like a router or location that looks like a router or something and then from there you've got something and then from there you've got something and then from there you've got symmetrical yeah highp speed 10 gbit symmetrical yeah highp speed 10 gbit symmetrical yeah highp speed 10 gbit circuit or something crazy Viber and all circuit or something crazy Viber and all circuit or something crazy Viber and all in the event you happen to be using one in the event you happen to be using one in the event you happen to be using one of the public clouds each one of them of the public clouds each one of them of the public clouds each one of them actually has they call them different actually has they call them different actually has they call them different things but they have a mechanism by things but they have a mechanism by things but they have a mechanism by which you can send a private network which you can send a private network which you can send a private network connection right into your Cloud connection right into your Cloud connection right into your Cloud environment instead of going over the environment instead of going over the environment instead of going over the open internet um again they all have open internet um again they all have open internet um again they all have different names um I think Azure was different names um I think Azure was different names um I think Azure was called Express I for AWS and Google have called Express I for AWS and Google have called Express I for AWS and Google have different names for theirs everybody's different names for theirs everybody's different names for theirs everybody's got one and so you you could always do got one and so you you could always do got one and so you you could always do that I suppose and so y I think you that I suppose and so y I think you that I suppose and so y I think you should get to work building a reverse should get to work building a reverse should get to work building a reverse CDN for just it's the problem the CDN for just it's the problem the CDN for just it's the problem the problem is to find that killer app and problem is to find that killer app and problem is to find that killer app and or or killer use case I I don't I'm not or or killer use case I I don't I'm not or or killer use case I I don't I'm not I'm not seeing it I'm not seeing the I'm not seeing it I'm not seeing the I'm not seeing it I'm not seeing the killer use case for but it's a it's an killer use case for but it's a it's an killer use case for but it's a it's an interesting technology I think if I was interesting technology I think if I was interesting technology I think if I was going to think about something and I going to think about something and I going to think about something and I wouldn't be doing it but the idea from a wouldn't be doing it but the idea from a wouldn't be doing it but the idea from a from an from a manufacturing perspective from an from a manufacturing perspective from an from a manufacturing perspective is there's tons of data that come so is there's tons of data that come so is there's tons of data that come so fast at you that you don't want to send fast at you that you don't want to send fast at you that you don't want to send up to the cloud because it it it's the up to the cloud because it it it's the up to the cloud because it it it's the results that are relevant not the actual results that are relevant not the actual results that are relevant not the actual data and and but the problem there is data and and but the problem there is data and and but the problem there is then I will probably still be paying for then I will probably still be paying for then I will probably still be paying for the data data transmission to the Tower the data data transmission to the Tower the data data transmission to the Tower and so it wouldn't benefit me not to and so it wouldn't benefit me not to and so it wouldn't benefit me not to send it all the way up to the cloud send it all the way up to the cloud send it all the way up to the cloud because I already paid for it um right because I already paid for it um right because I already paid for it um right but it could serve as let's say offload but it could serve as let's say offload but it could serve as let's say offload point right so let's say that needed
-
point right so let's say that needed point right so let's say that needed additional capacity that wasn't additional capacity that wasn't additional capacity that wasn't available and you could tap into and available and you could tap into and available and you could tap into and let's say that you have these Peaks let's say that you have these Peaks let's say that you have these Peaks right it could serve that function of uh right it could serve that function of uh right it could serve that function of uh you know being a source of uh you know you know being a source of uh you know you know being a source of uh you know offload compute I mean that's one offload compute I mean that's one offload compute I mean that's one example you know absolutely absolutely example you know absolutely absolutely example you know absolutely absolutely there's def the thing of course from my there's def the thing of course from my there's def the thing of course from my perspective that always hit me is that perspective that always hit me is that perspective that always hit me is that I'm not a fact Factory if I was one I'm not a fact Factory if I was one I'm not a fact Factory if I was one Factory and have I I could talk to Factory and have I I could talk to Factory and have I I could talk to Verizon and figure out how to do that Verizon and figure out how to do that Verizon and figure out how to do that that that would be easy right but I'm an that that would be easy right but I'm an that that would be easy right but I'm an oem so I have you know I got 50,000 oem so I have you know I got 50,000 oem so I have you know I got 50,000 customers all over the globe and so the customers all over the globe and so the customers all over the globe and so the the amount of vendors I would have to the amount of vendors I would have to the amount of vendors I would have to talk to to develop an application would talk to to develop an application would talk to to develop an application would be crazy yeah but I mean think about it be crazy yeah but I mean think about it be crazy yeah but I mean think about it in order to transmit all that data from in order to transmit all that data from in order to transmit all that data from the shop floor to that edge site you the shop floor to that edge site you the shop floor to that edge site you need a massive Uplink pipe need a massive Uplink pipe need a massive Uplink pipe right exactly and that's why latency and right exactly and that's why latency and right exactly and that's why latency and you're GNA do that with you're GNA do that with you're GNA do that with fiber that's why that's why that's why I fiber that's why that's why that's why I fiber that's why that's why that's why I move the edge to the actual equipment move the edge to the actual equipment move the edge to the actual equipment right like like like we have a we have right like like like we have a we have right like like like we have a we have we have a small Linux box right with we have a small Linux box right with we have a small Linux box right with some capability and we we'll collect some capability and we we'll collect some capability and we we'll collect some data there process it and send the some data there process it and send the some data there process it and send the results up right but we wouldn't results up right but we wouldn't results up right but we wouldn't wouldn't send all of it up at all wouldn't send all of it up at all wouldn't send all of it up at all wouldn't like vibration data it's crazy wouldn't like vibration data it's crazy wouldn't like vibration data it's crazy amount of data right but that's raw data amount of data right but that's raw data amount of data right but that's raw data is not relevant it's the results there is not relevant it's the results there is not relevant it's the results there are yeah stuff what do you think I know are yeah stuff what do you think I know are yeah stuff what do you think I know it's it takes me back to that 5G factory
-
it's it takes me back to that 5G factory it's it takes me back to that 5G factory tour that that I I took I guess was it tour that that I I took I guess was it tour that that I I took I guess was it was sometime in the spring yeah like was sometime in the spring yeah like was sometime in the spring yeah like three weeks months ago right is it I three weeks months ago right is it I three weeks months ago right is it I don't know it feels like it was forever don't know it feels like it was forever don't know it feels like it was forever ago but it but when we asked the hard ago but it but when we asked the hard ago but it but when we asked the hard questions about you know well are you questions about you know well are you questions about you know well are you using cellular in your factory using cellular in your factory using cellular in your factory and and in reality it was all just and and in reality it was all just and and in reality it was all just little small use cases nothing that's little small use cases nothing that's little small use cases nothing that's actually scaled or anything so and I actually scaled or anything so and I actually scaled or anything so and I mean that just goes to tell you when the mean that just goes to tell you when the mean that just goes to tell you when the equipment manufacturers aren't doing equipment manufacturers aren't doing equipment manufacturers aren't doing that in their own that in their own that in their own factories um and they're selling it and factories um and they're selling it and factories um and they're selling it and they're trying to sell that so it just they're trying to sell that so it just they're trying to sell that so it just it speaks for itself it's not there yet it speaks for itself it's not there yet it speaks for itself it's not there yet um it's not there for robotics it's not um it's not there for robotics it's not um it's not there for robotics it's not there I mean when you have a great fiber there I mean when you have a great fiber there I mean when you have a great fiber infrastructure you do not need 5G in infrastructure you do not need 5G in infrastructure you do not need 5G in your factory so I think it comes down to your factory so I think it comes down to your factory so I think it comes down to use cases and applicability if assets use cases and applicability if assets use cases and applicability if assets are moving and away from a structure are moving and away from a structure are moving and away from a structure that's sitting there yeah maybe then that's sitting there yeah maybe then that's sitting there yeah maybe then we'll start talking about some actual we'll start talking about some actual we'll start talking about some actual use cases where there's some fits but use cases where there's some fits but use cases where there's some fits but for a building that's just sitting for a building that's just sitting for a building that's just sitting there there there yeah it doesn't make sense also the yeah it doesn't make sense also the yeah it doesn't make sense also the people who run a factory let's go back people who run a factory let's go back people who run a factory let's go back to Yan to Yan to Yan here there's something else that flies here there's something else that flies here there's something else that flies in the face of all the stuff we're in the face of all the stuff we're in the face of all the stuff we're talking about and this has to do with talking about and this has to do with talking about and this has to do with Factory plant owners critical Factory plant owners critical Factory plant owners critical infrastructure all kinds of stuff that infrastructure all kinds of stuff that infrastructure all kinds of stuff that actually says actually says actually says data doesn't leave my data doesn't leave my data doesn't leave my factory um what they're still throwing

factory um what they're still throwing factory um what they're still throwing around the very old term air gapped yeah around the very old term air gapped yeah around the very old term air gapped yeah still talking about segmenting the stuff still talking about segmenting the stuff still talking about segmenting the stuff and so that discussion flies in the face and so that discussion flies in the face and so that discussion flies in the face of everything we are talking about right of everything we are talking about right of everything we are talking about right now it's getting less and less though I now it's getting less and less though I now it's getting less and less though I I think we have uh we have some of our I think we have uh we have some of our I think we have uh we have some of our you know like uh large shic accounts you know like uh large shic accounts you know like uh large shic accounts that's still there and of course we have that's still there and of course we have that's still there and of course we have all the infrastructure of customers like all the infrastructure of customers like all the infrastructure of customers like uh nuclear plants and all kind of stuff uh nuclear plants and all kind of stuff uh nuclear plants and all kind of stuff absolutely right um but but we're absolutely right um but but we're absolutely right um but but we're seeing that the the the the benefit seeing that the the the the benefit seeing that the the the the benefit overweighs the the issues with it so overweighs the the issues with it so overweighs the the issues with it so that the things we can do if we have the that the things we can do if we have the that the things we can do if we have the data that can help our customers are data that can help our customers are data that can help our customers are starting to kind of take over a little starting to kind of take over a little starting to kind of take over a little bit more um and so it becomes back to bit more um and so it becomes back to bit more um and so it becomes back to really a cyber security evaluation at really a cyber security evaluation at really a cyber security evaluation at that level where we have to kind of that level where we have to kind of that level where we have to kind of describe our infrastructure how we're describe our infrastructure how we're describe our infrastructure how we're protecting it and then uh we're a little protecting it and then uh we're a little protecting it and then uh we're a little bit in the in the more uh bit in the in the more uh bit in the in the more uh um we have we have better Advantage um we have we have better Advantage um we have we have better Advantage because if you look at what we're because if you look at what we're because if you look at what we're collecting typically it is uh it is uh collecting typically it is uh it is uh collecting typically it is uh it is uh uh like for example uh like for example uh like for example compressors we are collecting data about compressors we are collecting data about compressors we are collecting data about the compressors running delivering the compressors running delivering the compressors running delivering compressor to a to a manufacturing plant compressor to a to a manufacturing plant compressor to a to a manufacturing plant we're not on the packaging line we're we're not on the packaging line we're we're not on the packaging line we're not on on the uh on the supply lines not on on the uh on the supply lines not on on the uh on the supply lines we're not on the recipe system we the we're not on the recipe system we the we're not on the recipe system we the the data we're collecting is just how is the data we're collecting is just how is the data we're collecting is just how is the utility running that is compressed the utility running that is compressed the utility running that is compressed there so it's not any different than the

there so it's not any different than the there so it's not any different than the the uh uh uh Power Company is pulling the uh uh uh Power Company is pulling the uh uh uh Power Company is pulling data from the meter power meters back to data from the meter power meters back to data from the meter power meters back to them to understand how the electric them to understand how the electric them to understand how the electric electricity is right so I'm say I'm electricity is right so I'm say I'm electricity is right so I'm say I'm telling my telling my customers often telling my telling my customers often telling my telling my customers often enough that if the data you can use that enough that if the data you can use that enough that if the data you can use that we're collecting you can see what the we're collecting you can see what the we're collecting you can see what the what the shift schedule is you can see what the shift schedule is you can see what the shift schedule is you can see if the lights on in the factory but BAS if the lights on in the factory but BAS if the lights on in the factory but BAS basically that's it um so we're not basically that's it um so we're not basically that's it um so we're not going so so more important for customers going so so more important for customers going so so more important for customers is any of the devic that we put in can is any of the devic that we put in can is any of the devic that we put in can they be used as a gateway to get further they be used as a gateway to get further they be used as a gateway to get further into the system and that's the other into the system and that's the other into the system and that's the other part by by using cellular we're not part by by using cellular we're not part by by using cellular we're not connecting to the network at all um if connecting to the network at all um if connecting to the network at all um if if if the the first hacker I guess that if if the the first hacker I guess that if if the the first hacker I guess that can find a way to to through mod bus can find a way to to through mod bus can find a way to to through mod bus like serial mod bus penetrate back into like serial mod bus penetrate back into like serial mod bus penetrate back into the backend system of a customer the backend system of a customer the backend system of a customer uh he deserves all the praise that that uh he deserves all the praise that that uh he deserves all the praise that that you can give him if he can figure that you can give him if he can figure that you can give him if he can figure that out right so yeah but let me let me ask out right so yeah but let me let me ask out right so yeah but let me let me ask you guys this and you know so yeah you guys this and you know so yeah you guys this and you know so yeah there's a lot of talk about um you know there's a lot of talk about um you know there's a lot of talk about um you know unified name space and getting data out unified name space and getting data out unified name space and getting data out and the fact that you have data pretty and the fact that you have data pretty and the fact that you have data pretty much just solely egressing nothing much just solely egressing nothing much just solely egressing nothing really going into uh industrial really going into uh industrial really going into uh industrial environment uh what environment uh what environment uh what about what about uh attacks on that data about what about uh attacks on that data about what about uh attacks on that data that create that create that create misinformation right that Jack

see that yeah exactly insights if we can see that yeah exactly insights if we can see that uh something is going to happen see that uh something is going to happen see that uh something is going to happen to the machine within the next 30 days to the machine within the next 30 days to the machine within the next 30 days that could be a catastrophic breakdown that could be a catastrophic breakdown that could be a catastrophic breakdown or be uh uh you know the machine just or be uh uh you know the machine just or be uh uh you know the machine just going to stop working because it's going going to stop working because it's going going to stop working because it's going to go in a state that we already know is to go in a state that we already know is to go in a state that we already know is a known State um so we're using that a known State um so we're using that a known State um so we're using that data in order to predict that with with data in order to predict that with with data in order to predict that with with uh machine learning Etc and and we are uh machine learning Etc and and we are uh machine learning Etc and and we are doing a lot there from a data cleaning doing a lot there from a data cleaning doing a lot there from a data cleaning cleansing perspective to make sure that cleansing perspective to make sure that cleansing perspective to make sure that the data that goes into the model is the data that goes into the model is the data that goes into the model is reliable so if we find if somebody is reliable so if we find if somebody is reliable so if we find if somebody is messing with that data first of all if messing with that data first of all if messing with that data first of all if they mess with one machine we're doing they mess with one machine we're doing they mess with one machine we're doing machine learning models around thousands machine learning models around thousands machine learning models around thousands of right so there'll be a you know a of right so there'll be a you know a of right so there'll be a you know a minor blimp in that in that minor blimp in that in that minor blimp in that in that information but and and I again it's information but and and I again it's information but and and I again it's also something about Focus also something about Focus also something about Focus if we got hackers they're going to find if we got hackers they're going to find if we got hackers they're going to find the right Focus that has an impact going the right Focus that has an impact going the right Focus that has an impact going to an oem and messing with their data to an oem and messing with their data to an oem and messing with their data that's generating some information back that's generating some information back that's generating some information back in the portal to our customers I think in the portal to our customers I think in the portal to our customers I think there's no real value in that uh it's there's no real value in that uh it's there's no real value in that uh it's not something you can make money off of not something you can make money off of not something you can make money off of sure um you can make a little bit of sure um you can make a little bit of sure um you can make a little bit of disruption but it will hit so very few disruption but it will hit so very few disruption but it will hit so very few um so I again it's also a part of Focus um so I again it's also a part of Focus um so I again it's also a part of Focus right where do we think right where do we think right where do we think hackers will really go in so if if they hackers will really go in so if if they hackers will really go in so if if they if they can penetrate an a Linux device if they can penetrate an a Linux device if they can penetrate an a Linux device sitting at at a nuclear plant somehow sitting at at a nuclear plant somehow sitting at at a nuclear plant somehow right that's that's something that could right that's that's something that could right that's that's something that could be interesting right um and when you're be interesting right um and when you're be interesting right um and when you're looking at the activity around changing

looking at the activity around changing looking at the activity around changing data uh you saw the whole um the whole data uh you saw the whole um the whole data uh you saw the whole um the whole uh issue with with ran nuclear power PL uh issue with with ran nuclear power PL uh issue with with ran nuclear power PL right they were changing set points in right they were changing set points in right they were changing set points in order to make the plans run differently order to make the plans run differently order to make the plans run differently uh and and so that's where you will find uh and and so that's where you will find uh and and so that's where you will find you know areas of General utility like you know areas of General utility like you know areas of General utility like electricity water if you can go in there electricity water if you can go in there electricity water if you can go in there and change something so that you can and change something so that you can and change something so that you can stop the water or you can set the stop the water or you can set the stop the water or you can set the temperature up to too high or whatever temperature up to too high or whatever temperature up to too high or whatever it is right that that's where where it is right that that's where where it is right that that's where where somebody that's not making money off of somebody that's not making money off of somebody that's not making money off of but just trying to disrupt that's like but just trying to disrupt that's like but just trying to disrupt that's like like nation state kind of hacking right like nation state kind of hacking right like nation state kind of hacking right that's what they're going to focus on that's what they're going to focus on that's what they're going to focus on that they're not going to go into oems that they're not going to go into oems that they're not going to go into oems but they're going to find some key but they're going to find some key but they're going to find some key critical infrastructures large customers critical infrastructures large customers critical infrastructures large customers large manufacturers that for some reason large manufacturers that for some reason large manufacturers that for some reason the the corporation has upset the the the corporation has upset the the the corporation has upset the country or whatever they're going to go country or whatever they're going to go country or whatever they're going to go find ways to go in and disrupt something find ways to go in and disrupt something find ways to go in and disrupt something that they're doing um but but you're that they're doing um but but you're that they're doing um but but you're you're right there's there's there's you're right there's there's there's you're right there's there's there's some areas there that uh companies that some areas there that uh companies that some areas there that uh companies that knows that they're in the focus area knows that they're in the focus area knows that they're in the focus area they got to think about yeah no and I'm they got to think about yeah no and I'm they got to think about yeah no and I'm not picking on vendors I I'm also just not picking on vendors I I'm also just not picking on vendors I I'm also just I'm just asking the I'm just asking the I'm just asking the question um and I guess against this question um and I guess against this question um and I guess against this broader are thinking that everything broader are thinking that everything broader are thinking that everything needs to go to the cloud we still hear needs to go to the cloud we still hear needs to go to the cloud we still hear that right so I don't know I mean Rob I that right so I don't know I mean Rob I that right so I don't know I mean Rob I I'd love your perspective on this I'd love your perspective on this I'd love your perspective on this because you know with your new role you because you know with your new role you because you know with your new role you don't talk about iot anymore you talk don't talk about iot anymore you talk don't talk about iot anymore you talk about the edge and the cloud and um

they build Network switches stuff and they build Network switches stuff and things like that skill systems yeah and things like that skill systems yeah and things like that skill systems yeah and it says that they're primarily building it says that they're primarily building it says that they're primarily building the stuff for hyperscalers is that right the stuff for hyperscalers is that right the stuff for hyperscalers is that right um and so yeah I'm wondering what is the um and so yeah I'm wondering what is the um and so yeah I'm wondering what is the rationale or the background thinking you rationale or the background thinking you rationale or the background thinking you know because it's like there's AMD know because it's like there's AMD know because it's like there's AMD they've always been traditionally they've always been traditionally they've always been traditionally battling out with battling out with battling out with Intel and and that's always back and Intel and and that's always back and Intel and and that's always back and forth they've always been a little tiny forth they've always been a little tiny forth they've always been a little tiny baby sister because they're dramatically baby sister because they're dramatically baby sister because they're dramatically smaller than Intel but then Intel's been smaller than Intel but then Intel's been smaller than Intel but then Intel's been getting destroyed by Invidia and now AMD getting destroyed by Invidia and now AMD getting destroyed by Invidia and now AMD are they trying to compete on AI when are they trying to compete on AI when are they trying to compete on AI when they do this or are they trying to they do this or are they trying to they do this or are they trying to compete with compete with compete with Intel because what they just bought Intel because what they just bought Intel because what they just bought doesn't do anything for doesn't do anything for doesn't do anything for AI no it it it does AI no it it it does AI no it it it does for for the generative AI supercomputing for for the generative AI supercomputing for for the generative AI supercomputing stuff right so these guys have been stuff right so these guys have been stuff right so these guys have been putting together servers and I mean just putting together servers and I mean just putting together servers and I mean just these data centers for um these these data centers for um these these data centers for um these hyperscalers and that includes all the hyperscalers and that includes all the hyperscalers and that includes all the you know crazy uh mvl 72s and um you you know crazy uh mvl 72s and um you you know crazy uh mvl 72s and um you know the um the 747 yeah yeah yeah yeah know the um the 747 yeah yeah yeah yeah know the um the 747 yeah yeah yeah yeah the the yeah h100 h200 all that stuff the the yeah h100 h200 all that stuff the the yeah h100 h200 all that stuff they've been doing all that for the they've been doing all that for the they've been doing all that for the hyperscalers so so what are hyperscalers so so what are hyperscalers so so what are they here's what we learned a long long they here's what we learned a long long they here's what we learned a long long long time ago with the hyperscalers they
-
long time ago with the hyperscalers they long time ago with the hyperscalers they started out buying off-the-shelf gear to started out buying off-the-shelf gear to started out buying off-the-shelf gear to build their that's what you do you buy build their that's what you do you buy build their that's what you do you buy Dell or HP or Lenova or Dell or HP or Lenova or Dell or HP or Lenova or whoever and they bought Cisco gear for whoever and they bought Cisco gear for whoever and they bought Cisco gear for the networks everything and then they the networks everything and then they the networks everything and then they realized this is way too expensive and realized this is way too expensive and realized this is way too expensive and all these things keep failing all the all these things keep failing all the all these things keep failing all the time and you build the cloud designed time and you build the cloud designed time and you build the cloud designed for fail the software keeps it alive for fail the software keeps it alive for fail the software keeps it alive servers are failing every few minutes servers are failing every few minutes servers are failing every few minutes yeah and then pretty soon they all yeah and then pretty soon they all yeah and then pretty soon they all started building custom servers they started building custom servers they started building custom servers they started building their own networking started building their own networking started building their own networking gear and everything and they quit using gear and everything and they quit using gear and everything and they quit using Cisco and Dell and HP and they all have Cisco and Dell and HP and they all have Cisco and Dell and HP and they all have custom I've seen in yeah the Microsoft custom I've seen in yeah the Microsoft custom I've seen in yeah the Microsoft it's called a sled yeah just because and it's called a sled yeah just because and it's called a sled yeah just because and they learned a lot of this believe it or they learned a lot of this believe it or they learned a lot of this believe it or not not just from Google they learned it not not just from Google they learned it not not just from Google they learned it from Facebook because Facebook built the from Facebook because Facebook built the from Facebook because Facebook built the planetary scale system you know like planetary scale system you know like planetary scale system you know like literally a single workload do you know literally a single workload do you know literally a single workload do you know what I'm saying which is their platform what I'm saying which is their platform what I'm saying which is their platform yeah yeah and so I'm wondering are those yeah yeah and so I'm wondering are those yeah yeah and so I'm wondering are those guys building these sleds these super guys building these sleds these super guys building these sleds these super stripped down servers that hyperscalers stripped down servers that hyperscalers stripped down servers that hyperscalers use do the hyperscalers don't use them I use do the hyperscalers don't use them I use do the hyperscalers don't use them I I get the idea of oh if I buy them I I get the idea of oh if I buy them I I get the idea of oh if I buy them I will tell them put AMD chips in them will tell them put AMD chips in them will tell them put AMD chips in them instead of Intel or Nvidia and that's instead of Intel or Nvidia and that's instead of Intel or Nvidia and that's how we'll how we'll how we'll win maybe trying to um customer has to win maybe trying to um customer has to win maybe trying to um customer has to order the stuff and say I want this order the stuff and say I want this order the stuff and say I want this versus that um now sarg said something versus that um now sarg said something versus that um now sarg said something that to me like oh don't worry they're that to me like oh don't worry they're that to me like oh don't worry they're going to offload all the manufacturing

Summary
The main theme is the cyclical overhype and subsequent disappointment in wireless technology, exemplified by the discussion of 5G and the potential of 6G. A key reference is the question of whether "6G will save 5G," implying a recognition that 5G hasn't met expectations. The practical takeaway is to focus on investing in existing infrastructure like LTE Advanced and improving backhaul and fronthaul for more reliable and cost-effective gains, rather than chasing the next big, overhyped technology.
