Telefonica makes strategic investment in Quantenna

摘要

Telefonica announced that it has signed a strategic partnership with Quantenna Communications, a provider of Wi-Fi networking for whole-home entertainment. The partnership sees Telefonica making a strategic equity investment in Quantenna, which gives it access to the latest Quantenna technology for the deployment of high-performance video services to the home.New services with high interactivity, low latency and huge bandwidth demands (such as high-definition video), plus the increasing proliferation of connected devices in the home (many of those mobile) challenge today's network technologies. As network operators start to roll out fiber services to customers' homes, capable of delivering speeds of up to 10OMbps, there is a looming bottleneck on the limited capabilities of current wireless technologies.
