San Jose, Calif. – September 23, 2026 -- Cisco and Omdia research finds that 95% of enterprises say their existing AIOps tools cannot keep pace with current network demands, while more than half have already shifted to AgenticOps, where AI agents act autonomously in production network environments.

Daily alert volumes have outpaced human capacity to respond

The average organization generates about 4,100 monitoring alerts and events daily, more than half of them network related. Clearing that backlog manually would require roughly 100 IT specialists. Nearly half of network alerts are closed without investigation, and a similar share of investigation time is spent chasing false positives.

Shanghai – September 23, 2026 -- Huawei used a dedicated session at HUAWEI CONNECT 2026 to lay out a new architecture for wide area networks (WAN) built for AI-driven traffic, unveiling its Stellar AI Integrated Data WAN Solution and a jointly published white paper with GlobalData on intelligent WAN design for the agentic AI era.

Legacy WAN architecture cannot absorb AI's unpredictable traffic spikes, GlobalData warns

Dustin Kehoe, Head of AMEA Tech Research at GlobalData, told attendees that AI workloads generate massive, real-time data flows that conventional networks were never designed to handle. He said AI requires distributed, edge-enabled frameworks that process data closer to its source to cut latency and optimize bandwidth, alongside deterministic performance guarantees at a granular level.

Malaga – – September 23, 2026 -- Lightera confirmed its Multicore Fiber (MCF) technology is part of the OIF multi-vendor interoperability demonstration at ECOC 2026, running on stand 2126 in Malaga, Spain.

Lightera's MCF cuts fiber count by 75% versus conventional single-mode fiber

The company is supporting both a 500-meter and a 50-kilometer MCF demonstration using its 4-core, 125 μm clad diameter fiber, built with 40 μm pitch and ITU-T G.657.A2-compliant cores. According to Lightera, the design reduces fiber count by 75% compared to conventional single-mode fiber (SMF) and cuts weight and space requirements by up to four times.

Amsterdam – September 22, 2026 -- Telit Cinterion demonstrated an integrated cellular-GNSS positioning system achieving 1-2 centimeter average precision, using cellular-delivered correction data instead of dedicated satellite hardware. The IoT solutions provider is showcasing the technology at Booth M6 during The Things Conference 2026, running Sept. 22-23 at De Kromhouthal in Amsterdam.

Cellular module delivers centimeter-level GNSS corrections over standard network connections

The demonstration runs on a CMB100 development kit built around Telit Cinterion's CMB100 LTE Cat 1 bis module. Using AT commands processed through the kit's onboard ST microcontroller, the module establishes a network connection via a Telit Cinterion NExT SIM and downloads Skylark Nx RTK MSM5 GNSS correction data from Swift Navigation through NTRIP (Networked Transport of RTCM via Internet Protocol).

Atlanta – September 22, 2026 -- IPitomy Communications LLC, a subsidiary of Clarion Communications LLC, has released Resolvix, a new suite of AI-powered voice and chat agents built for its proprietary Unified Communications-as-a-Service (UCaaS) platform.

Resolvix delivers round-the-clock call and chat coverage for SMB clients

The tool set provides 24/7 coverage for phone calls and website live chat, automated lead qualification with accurate intake, and scheduling and next-step automation. Resolvix also supports natural, business-specific dialogue with multilingual capability, targeting small and mid-sized business customers across North America.

"Our customers are looking for practical ways to use AI to improve their customer experiences and employee productivity without adding complexity," said IPitomy CEO Joseph Haines, Sr., adding that the strategy centers on a unified platform combining communications, customer engagement and AI.

New York – September 22, 2026 -- IQSTEL Inc. (NASDAQ: IQST) reported net revenue of $37.5 million for July, translating to an annualized run rate of $450 million based on that single month's performance.

July revenue run rate tops company's $430 million full-year target

The Company said the July figure supports its previously stated $430 million full-year revenue objective. IQSTEL clarified that the annualized rate simply multiplies July net revenue by 12 and does not reflect revenue already booked or a change to its full-year forecast.

Ultranet acquisition expected to add $4.5 million in net income

IQSTEL is finalizing its planned acquisition of Ultranet, which management expects to contribute $4.5 million in net income once completed. The Company noted the projected contribution depends on closing the deal and subsequent operating performance.

Atlanta – September 22, 2026 -- Sercomm (TWSE: 5388) has launched a fully ITU-T G.9804.3-compliant 50G PON product portfolio, targeting service providers accelerating their transition to all-fiber networks amid surging bandwidth demand from 8K streaming, cloud gaming, AR/VR, enterprise connectivity and mobile backhaul.

Sercomm's 50G PON ONU lineup supports both asymmetric 50G/25G and symmetrical 50G/50G operation

The portfolio, built to ITU-T G.9804.3 specifications, positions 50G PON as the successor to XGS-PON, enabling multi-gigabit symmetrical connectivity for residential, business and mobile-backhaul deployments.

The solution enables tri-PON coexistence with GPON and XGS-PON on shared optical distribution networks

This interoperability protects operators' existing fiber investments and allows a phased migration path from HFC to fiber-deep architectures rather than requiring wholesale infrastructure replacement.

San Jose, Calif. – September 22, 2026 -- Echola Systems has introduced two optical test switches, the OPX4D-SM and OPX8D-SM, designed to cut equipment costs for engineers validating AI data center GPU cluster networks running at 800G and 1.6T speeds.

OptiShare switches let one test resource serve multiple devices under test

The OPX4D-SM offers a 1×4 configuration supporting four devices under test (DUTs), while the OPX8D-SM provides a 1×8 configuration for eight DUTs. Custom builds scale up to 1×32, accommodating 32 DUTs. Engineers select one DUT connection at a time for sequential, automated testing, eliminating the need to dedicate costly instruments like bit error rate testers and protocol analyzers to every device.

New York – September 22, 2026 -- The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) intends to join Africa Finance Corporation (AFC) and Vision International Investment Company (Vision Invest) as an investor in WIOCC Group, Africa's carrier-neutral digital infrastructure platform operating in more than 30 African countries. The announcement followed a roundtable hosted by AFC on the sidelines of Unstoppable Africa's Global Africa Business Initiative, held alongside the UN General Assembly in New York.

The combined capital will fund expansion of WIOCC Group's terrestrial and subsea networks, data centre capacity and broader digital infrastructure platform. DFC's investment is subject to further steps before commitment and closing, including congressional notification.

London – September 22, 2026 -- Nice has formalized its entry into the European hostile vehicle mitigation (HVM) market, rolling out CE-certified products from its HySecurity division after previously supplying the region only on a project-by-project basis.

Nice Establishes Structured European Route to Market for HySecurity

HySecurity, acquired by Nice in 2016, brings more than 60 years of expertise in hydraulic gate operators and crash-rated barriers for airports, government facilities and data centres. Nice will now support the division with local commercial and technical teams alongside its existing network of installers and system integrators, moving away from ad hoc project sales.
