Smart Cities Ops and Apps August Newsletter

“The Smart City Committee in the Fiberconnect Council MENA has a mission to promote the deployment of ultra-high-speed FTTX. This technology is considered the most sustainable access network and is vital in reducing the carbon footprint. Additionally, it serves as the core of cities' digital transformation. The committee aims to support urban development by providing guidelines, standards, and services that highlight deployment approaches, applications, and benefits for Smart Cities, campuses, and other real estate developments in the MENA region.

This month, we will cover the deployment of electric hydrofoil ships in NEOM -Saudi Arabia, the digitization of public transport payments in Ajman – UAE, Urban planning using AI in Bahrain, and multiple use cases in the USA, UK, Germany, Switzerland, as well as Vietnam and South Korea. These use cases were in Hotspot Wi-Fi, Air Taxis, Autonomous public transport, micromobility, and decarbonization. Other use cases cover the expansion of digital infrastructure using fiber optics or 5G small cells and the use of drones for delivery and many others…

Finally, it's important to emphasize the role of optical fiber in supporting the upcoming deployments of smart city infrastructure networks globally. Optical fiber provides the required ultra-wide bandwidth for the massive number of IoT devices embedded in these networks.
