Telecommunication Technology and Solutions

The modern telecommunications network is the central nervous system of our modern society. We have grown accustomed to rapid and reliable, long-distance communications. With the move from analog to digital technology, the world relies on a network that can deliver high data speeds and superior quality and performance.

Overview


Digital communications via the internet now handles everything from simple telephone calls to complex cloud computing. Consumers have grown to expect a whole range of data-driven services, from immersive virtual reality entertainment to the ever-present smart assistants. Industrial users have also embraced high-speed data services with the rapid growth of the Internet of Things, the network of connected devices that communicate without user intervention. Add to this the latest developments in artificial intelligence (AI) that are revolutionizing almost all markets, from factory automation to automotive connectivity, the sky’s the limit on the requirement for the telecommunications network.

The latest estimates indicate that there will be more than 36 billion IoT-enabled devices by 2025, further driving the demand for data capacity. Global data traffic from mobile devices alone is predicted to reach nearly 300 exabytes per month (300 thousand billion gigabytes) by 2027. The telecommunications industry controls a vast array of cables, connections, computing, and storage equipment, as well as the connected devices themselves.

Molex draws upon decades of innovation and expertise in the telecom and datacom industries, developing solutions to meet the needs of our customers. From millimeter wavelength (mmWave), RF, power and wireless components, Molex enables capabilities that pave the way for 5G and beyond.
