Dell drives innovation in a 5G world .

Dell Technologies ’ deep relationship with T-Mobile is heralding the way for an even stronger 5G future .
Dell Technologies is striding into a dynamic , collaborative 5G future , as it continues to move way beyond its traditional role as a provider of enterprise IT .
The company is now an established strategic partner to a number of telecom firms , helping them modernise their networks , and also to monetise them , by generating new revenue streams .
One of Dell ’ s customers is T-Mobile , with whom it has been engaged in an innovationdriven relationship for many years .
Historically , Dell ’ s focus has been on supporting T-Mobile ’ s IT and network requirements , through its storage , server and client solutions .
“ But we ’ ve now elevated our strategic partnership above this ,” says Dell ’ s Telco Global Sales Leader , Scott Cohen .
“ We ’ re now also collaborating on monetising 5G in the market , as well as on network innovations ,” Cohen adds .
Key among these is the 5G Innovation Lab , which launched early in January 2022 . This has seen Dell and T-Mobile partner to unlock 5G capabilities for enterprises and consumers .
“ 5G has the ability to change the world ,” says Cohen . “ But use-cases around higher bandwidth , lower latency , and IoT have yet to be flushed out . The 5G Innovation Lab will accelerate this innovation .”
With the transition from 4G ( closed architecture ) to 5G ( open architecture ) Dell is well placed to apply its 5G know-how to the wider telecom market .
“ We ’ re a US $ 100bn company with 165,000 employees ,” says Cohen . “ For this transformation to happen it takes a business with scale and commitment to enter the ecosystem . The market is coming towards our core competencies , and we plan to respond .”
