Italian govt welcomes TIM network separation plan
2018-02-07 14:14:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Telecom Italia (TIM) finally revealed its plan to put its national fixed-line network into a separate company fully owned by the group during a meeting between CEO Amos Genish and industry minister Carlo Calenda. The voluntary separation is aimed at guaranteeing the network's quality and equal access to all operators as well as easing relations with the Italian government and regulators. "We presented a hypothesis of legal separation of the network, with a dedicated company, and we expect to discuss it at the next board," said Genish after the meeting, according to Reuters. The company's next board meeting is scheduled for 06 March, with Genish also due to present a three-year business plan intended to position the group as a "pure digital player and not a telecoms operator."

US govt considers 'nationalising' 5G network for security reasons
2018-01-29 12:42:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) A memo produced by a senior member of the US National Security Council shows officials are thinking about taking over part of the country's mobile network as a way of guarding it against China, Axios reported. The documents say America needs a centralized nationwide 5G network within three years and puts out two options on how to pay for it. In the first option, the US government would pay for and build a single network, which in fact would mean the nationalisation of a historically private infrastructure. The second option would have mobile providers building their own 5G networks and competing with each other. The memo notes that this option would take longer and cost more but that it would cause less commercial disruption to the industry.
