How do you see digital transformation trends across large and small businesses worldwide?<\/strong>
From our conversations with customers, we know that while they always believed technology was important, over the last 18 months, they have experienced the power of technology in an entirely new way. There are four significant trends taking shape – home is the new office, cloud is the new data center, identity is the new perimeter, and the internet is the new network. As a result, they are moving faster than they ever imagined possible in their digital transformation journey. And it's not just large enterprises – a recent survey found that in the last year, almost 30% of Indian MSMEs witnessed a growth of up to 500% in sales through online channels. A report by NASSCOM and McKinsey recorded a jump of 30% in digital transformation deals since the start of the pandemic and suggests that the world has leapfrogged its digital adoption by three to five years in the last nine months.
With next-generation networks kicking in, what quantum of data is expected to be generated as per your estimates? How is Cisco placed to address this demand?
<\/strong>
Before the pandemic, internet traffic was already growing steadily. According to a Cisco report, 66% of people globally and 64% in India (approximately 900 million people) were expected to be online by 2023. However, with the pandemic shifting the way we live and making the world more digitally-dependent, we will likely reach these milestones much earlier. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India<\/a> reported that India added 30 million more internet users in the first three months of 2021, bringing the total up to 825 million by the end of March 2021. This means a massive volume of data is being generated. Industry reports suggest India's data consumption may touch 25 GB per month per user by 2025.
Telecom service providers are at the forefront of powering the greatest digital revolution the world has ever seen. That said, they have a long road ahead to get the world's networks ready for the massive and ubiquitous transformation taking place. At Cisco, we are redefining the economics of mass-scale networking to improve costs and outcomes for telecom and web-scale providers and deliver an efficient, reliable internet to power a more inclusive world.
Share your views on OpenRAN. How is Open vRAN helping telcos to collaborate and remain agile? What is the OpenRAN adoption rate?<\/strong>
OpenRAN allows telecom service providers to diversify supply chains, achieve unprecedented levels of interoperability and agility, and reduce their capex by almost 50%. Additionally, it enables them to offer new cloud-based services to customers, reduce their time-to-market, and generate new revenue streams. Virtualising the RAN, or Open vRAN, enhances flexibility across hardware, software, and systems integration, applying the same principles that drive innovation and agility in cloud services. Through Open vRAN, operators can make security enhancements and other changes through software alone, thus reducing the time and cost of such improvements.
Cisco is an early advocate of Open Virtualized RAN. We have been working on architecting and building solutions and demos, and conducting trials with MNOs to help redefine open interfaces and management. Our first full-scale commercial deployment of Open vRAN was with Rakuten in February 2019. With Rakuten, we built the first-of-its-kind fully virtualized network, from RAN to core, leveraging mobile edge computing and end-to-end automation for both the network and services.
How many telecom carriers have partnered with Cisco for their 5G roadmap? Commercial deployments so far in APJC?<\/strong>
Globally, we have been working with leading communication service providers and web-scale companies, including Google Cloud, Rakuten Mobile, and more, to design the building blocks for the 'Internet for the Future.' We have more than 125 active engagements with global customers on 5G, and close to 50 service providers actively test and deploy our 5G offering – Cisco 5G Now solutions. We are working with them on architectural designs and providing packet core technology. We expect to see a more significant impact from 5G as the number of users and devices increase.
In India, we have partnered with Bharti Airtel<\/a>, Vodafone Idea<\/a>, and Reliance Jio<\/a> to help prepare their networks for the 5G era and bring the benefits of the internet to more users across the nation. We are proudly providing technology innovations like bandwidth scale and density, energy efficiency, software modularity, and open architectures with zero-touch, zero-trust networks to help the digital ecosystem thrive.
How are you helping India's telecom service providers to migrate to 5G? Share your views on your engagements with Jio, Airtel and Vodafone Idea?
<\/strong>
Service providers see 5G as an opportunity to generate new revenue, deliver new services, cut costs and improve efficiencies by leveraging open architectures and greater automation. The major transitions enabled by 5G, Wi-Fi 6, and the cloud include Open RAN, edge services, and as-a-service consumption models.
We are focused on building the internet for the future through SiliconONE, optics, and software. In India, we are working with all the leading telecom service providers to help future-proof their operations and build next-gen networks.
With Bharti Airtel, we have a well-established relationship grounded in trust, and a shared passion to build world-class networks. Together, we are developing resilient go-to-market strategies and providing relevant solutions for our customers, even in the most challenging times. For a better tomorrow, our primary focus now is on 5G. Cisco and Airtel are building India's largest 5G-ready, fully automated, 100G IP and optical integrated network. This network will enable Airtel to extend its services to SMBs and enterprises in urban centers and rural communities, including crucial growth verticals such as smart cities, utilities, manufacturing, and agriculture.
We are also working with Vodafone Idea (Vi) to augment their existing 4G network and, in the future, 5G use cases to create enhanced experiences for their customers. Cisco is helping Vi design a cost-efficient network architecture to drive higher speed to market as it taps opportunities across 4G, 5G, cloud, and IoT. Vi is deploying Cisco's ultra-packet core to its network architecture with new software applications and services, including voice-over Wi-Fi.
In our collaboration with Reliance Jio, we started building a ground-breaking, 5G-ready network in 2017 to expand Jio's existing multi-terabit capacity and create the first All-IP converged network. With this network, Jio offered a unique combination of high-speed data, mobile video, VoLTE, digital commerce, media, cloud, and payment services. It is built on Cisco's open network architecture and cloud scale networking technologies, featuring IP\/MPLS, spanning data center, Wi-Fi, security, and contact center solutions.
This was a first-of-its-kind network with incredibly rapid growth, reaching 100 million broadband and VoLTE customers within six months. With the all-IP network supported by Cisco solutions, Jio transformed the network economy and revolutionized the delivery of customer services spanning the transportation, financial services, entertainment, agriculture, education, and healthcare industries. This Greenfield initiative is now viewed as a blueprint for several telecom service providers spanning countries across Europe and Asia, leveraging Cisco’s and Jio’s leadership and experience to guide network transformation.

How many telcos have been using your $5 billion 5G fund? Is India a part of it?<\/strong>
In 2019, Cisco said it would commit $5 billion in 5G funding to bring innovative financial solutions to telecom service providers on top of cutting-edge technologies. We are already engaged with India's leading telecom service providers to prepare their network architectures for 5G and beyond. This $5 billion funding is being managed by our Cisco Capital financing arm and aims to facilitate our customers' transformation.
What, according to you, are the ideal spectrum bands for a 5G launch in India?<\/strong>
India should adopt a 3.5 GHz band and some other bands in the low\/medium and high frequency. As the 3.5 GHz band is set to be used in several different parts of the world for 5G services, it will become easier to gain from economies of scale and enable roaming for public and private 5G networks.

<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>NEW DELHI: <\/i>The US-based networking giant Cisco Systems<\/a> said that OpenRAN reduces telecom carriers’ capital expenditure (capex) by nearly 50%, and allows them to diversify supply chains, achieve unprecedented agility as well as enable them to offer new cloud-based services to customers, and generate new revenue streams. In an interaction with ETTelecom’s Muntazir Abbas, Jonathan Davidson<\/a>, Executive Vice President<\/b> and General Manager <\/b>at Cisco<\/a><\/b> speaks on OpenRAN, digital transformation of enterprises, data growth, fifth generation (5G) technology, and partnerships with Jio, Airtel and Vi. Edited excerpts. <\/i>
How do you see digital transformation trends across large and small businesses worldwide?<\/strong>
From our conversations with customers, we know that while they always believed technology was important, over the last 18 months, they have experienced the power of technology in an entirely new way. There are four significant trends taking shape – home is the new office, cloud is the new data center, identity is the new perimeter, and the internet is the new network. As a result, they are moving faster than they ever imagined possible in their digital transformation journey. And it's not just large enterprises – a recent survey found that in the last year, almost 30% of Indian MSMEs witnessed a growth of up to 500% in sales through online channels. A report by NASSCOM and McKinsey recorded a jump of 30% in digital transformation deals since the start of the pandemic and suggests that the world has leapfrogged its digital adoption by three to five years in the last nine months.
With next-generation networks kicking in, what quantum of data is expected to be generated as per your estimates? How is Cisco placed to address this demand?
<\/strong>
Before the pandemic, internet traffic was already growing steadily. According to a Cisco report, 66% of people globally and 64% in India (approximately 900 million people) were expected to be online by 2023. However, with the pandemic shifting the way we live and making the world more digitally-dependent, we will likely reach these milestones much earlier. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India<\/a> reported that India added 30 million more internet users in the first three months of 2021, bringing the total up to 825 million by the end of March 2021. This means a massive volume of data is being generated. Industry reports suggest India's data consumption may touch 25 GB per month per user by 2025.
Telecom service providers are at the forefront of powering the greatest digital revolution the world has ever seen. That said, they have a long road ahead to get the world's networks ready for the massive and ubiquitous transformation taking place. At Cisco, we are redefining the economics of mass-scale networking to improve costs and outcomes for telecom and web-scale providers and deliver an efficient, reliable internet to power a more inclusive world.
Share your views on OpenRAN. How is Open vRAN helping telcos to collaborate and remain agile? What is the OpenRAN adoption rate?<\/strong>
OpenRAN allows telecom service providers to diversify supply chains, achieve unprecedented levels of interoperability and agility, and reduce their capex by almost 50%. Additionally, it enables them to offer new cloud-based services to customers, reduce their time-to-market, and generate new revenue streams. Virtualising the RAN, or Open vRAN, enhances flexibility across hardware, software, and systems integration, applying the same principles that drive innovation and agility in cloud services. Through Open vRAN, operators can make security enhancements and other changes through software alone, thus reducing the time and cost of such improvements.
Cisco is an early advocate of Open Virtualized RAN. We have been working on architecting and building solutions and demos, and conducting trials with MNOs to help redefine open interfaces and management. Our first full-scale commercial deployment of Open vRAN was with Rakuten in February 2019. With Rakuten, we built the first-of-its-kind fully virtualized network, from RAN to core, leveraging mobile edge computing and end-to-end automation for both the network and services.
How many telecom carriers have partnered with Cisco for their 5G roadmap? Commercial deployments so far in APJC?<\/strong>
Globally, we have been working with leading communication service providers and web-scale companies, including Google Cloud, Rakuten Mobile, and more, to design the building blocks for the 'Internet for the Future.' We have more than 125 active engagements with global customers on 5G, and close to 50 service providers actively test and deploy our 5G offering – Cisco 5G Now solutions. We are working with them on architectural designs and providing packet core technology. We expect to see a more significant impact from 5G as the number of users and devices increase.
In India, we have partnered with Bharti Airtel<\/a>, Vodafone Idea<\/a>, and Reliance Jio<\/a> to help prepare their networks for the 5G era and bring the benefits of the internet to more users across the nation. We are proudly providing technology innovations like bandwidth scale and density, energy efficiency, software modularity, and open architectures with zero-touch, zero-trust networks to help the digital ecosystem thrive.
How are you helping India's telecom service providers to migrate to 5G? Share your views on your engagements with Jio, Airtel and Vodafone Idea?
<\/strong>
Service providers see 5G as an opportunity to generate new revenue, deliver new services, cut costs and improve efficiencies by leveraging open architectures and greater automation. The major transitions enabled by 5G, Wi-Fi 6, and the cloud include Open RAN, edge services, and as-a-service consumption models.
We are focused on building the internet for the future through SiliconONE, optics, and software. In India, we are working with all the leading telecom service providers to help future-proof their operations and build next-gen networks.
With Bharti Airtel, we have a well-established relationship grounded in trust, and a shared passion to build world-class networks. Together, we are developing resilient go-to-market strategies and providing relevant solutions for our customers, even in the most challenging times. For a better tomorrow, our primary focus now is on 5G. Cisco and Airtel are building India's largest 5G-ready, fully automated, 100G IP and optical integrated network. This network will enable Airtel to extend its services to SMBs and enterprises in urban centers and rural communities, including crucial growth verticals such as smart cities, utilities, manufacturing, and agriculture.
We are also working with Vodafone Idea (Vi) to augment their existing 4G network and, in the future, 5G use cases to create enhanced experiences for their customers. Cisco is helping Vi design a cost-efficient network architecture to drive higher speed to market as it taps opportunities across 4G, 5G, cloud, and IoT. Vi is deploying Cisco's ultra-packet core to its network architecture with new software applications and services, including voice-over Wi-Fi.
In our collaboration with Reliance Jio, we started building a ground-breaking, 5G-ready network in 2017 to expand Jio's existing multi-terabit capacity and create the first All-IP converged network. With this network, Jio offered a unique combination of high-speed data, mobile video, VoLTE, digital commerce, media, cloud, and payment services. It is built on Cisco's open network architecture and cloud scale networking technologies, featuring IP\/MPLS, spanning data center, Wi-Fi, security, and contact center solutions.
This was a first-of-its-kind network with incredibly rapid growth, reaching 100 million broadband and VoLTE customers within six months. With the all-IP network supported by Cisco solutions, Jio transformed the network economy and revolutionized the delivery of customer services spanning the transportation, financial services, entertainment, agriculture, education, and healthcare industries. This Greenfield initiative is now viewed as a blueprint for several telecom service providers spanning countries across Europe and Asia, leveraging Cisco’s and Jio’s leadership and experience to guide network transformation.

How many telcos have been using your $5 billion 5G fund? Is India a part of it?<\/strong>
In 2019, Cisco said it would commit $5 billion in 5G funding to bring innovative financial solutions to telecom service providers on top of cutting-edge technologies. We are already engaged with India's leading telecom service providers to prepare their network architectures for 5G and beyond. This $5 billion funding is being managed by our Cisco Capital financing arm and aims to facilitate our customers' transformation.
What, according to you, are the ideal spectrum bands for a 5G launch in India?<\/strong>
India should adopt a 3.5 GHz band and some other bands in the low\/medium and high frequency. As the 3.5 GHz band is set to be used in several different parts of the world for 5G services, it will become easier to gain from economies of scale and enable roaming for public and private 5G networks.

How do you see digital transformation trends across large and small businesses worldwide?<\/strong>
From our conversations with customers, we know that while they always believed technology was important, over the last 18 months, they have experienced the power of technology in an entirely new way. There are four significant trends taking shape – home is the new office, cloud is the new data center, identity is the new perimeter, and the internet is the new network. As a result, they are moving faster than they ever imagined possible in their digital transformation journey. And it's not just large enterprises – a recent survey found that in the last year, almost 30% of Indian MSMEs witnessed a growth of up to 500% in sales through online channels. A report by NASSCOM and McKinsey recorded a jump of 30% in digital transformation deals since the start of the pandemic and suggests that the world has leapfrogged its digital adoption by three to five years in the last nine months.
With next-generation networks kicking in, what quantum of data is expected to be generated as per your estimates? How is Cisco placed to address this demand?
<\/strong>
Before the pandemic, internet traffic was already growing steadily. According to a Cisco report, 66% of people globally and 64% in India (approximately 900 million people) were expected to be online by 2023. However, with the pandemic shifting the way we live and making the world more digitally-dependent, we will likely reach these milestones much earlier. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India<\/a> reported that India added 30 million more internet users in the first three months of 2021, bringing the total up to 825 million by the end of March 2021. This means a massive volume of data is being generated. Industry reports suggest India's data consumption may touch 25 GB per month per user by 2025.
Telecom service providers are at the forefront of powering the greatest digital revolution the world has ever seen. That said, they have a long road ahead to get the world's networks ready for the massive and ubiquitous transformation taking place. At Cisco, we are redefining the economics of mass-scale networking to improve costs and outcomes for telecom and web-scale providers and deliver an efficient, reliable internet to power a more inclusive world.
Share your views on OpenRAN. How is Open vRAN helping telcos to collaborate and remain agile? What is the OpenRAN adoption rate?<\/strong>
OpenRAN allows telecom service providers to diversify supply chains, achieve unprecedented levels of interoperability and agility, and reduce their capex by almost 50%. Additionally, it enables them to offer new cloud-based services to customers, reduce their time-to-market, and generate new revenue streams. Virtualising the RAN, or Open vRAN, enhances flexibility across hardware, software, and systems integration, applying the same principles that drive innovation and agility in cloud services. Through Open vRAN, operators can make security enhancements and other changes through software alone, thus reducing the time and cost of such improvements.
Cisco is an early advocate of Open Virtualized RAN. We have been working on architecting and building solutions and demos, and conducting trials with MNOs to help redefine open interfaces and management.
