The 15th anniversary of TNMO will offer more interactive discussions than ever before!

Day One | Tuesday 23 April

WELCOME to the highly establishedTransport Networks for Mobile Operators,

offering 15 years of exceptional case studies

from operators and telecom solution providers

across the globe.

The increasing pressure on operators as a result of spectrum shortage, and

the congestion imposed on networks by smart devices and new applications

has weighed heavily on an operator’s overall transport network.

TNMO provides a unique opportunity for operators and solution providers

to join together and discuss how to cost-efficiently combat capacity

constraints by examining how operators can upgrade and expand their

networks.

New developments and solutions in network infrastructure such as Radio

Access, all IP packet-based networks, LTE Backhaul, Small Cell Backhaul

and the overall transition to heterogeneous networks will be addressed

through numerous interactive sessions which will extract varied viewpoints

and generate heated debates.

A truly distinctive programme, don’t miss the chance to hear CXO level

representatives as well as leading engineers and network architects,

addressing their preference for network solutions as well as their future

methods of expanding networks to facilitate the advent of high speed

technologies such as LTE.

On behalf of the TNMO team, we look forward to welcoming you in London,

to the most rewarding show on Backhaul & Small Cell yet!

Best wishes,

Audience-led Panel Discussion: The Network Evolution Roadmap: Next-Gen NetworkRequirements for Future Service Environments

Roundtable Session: Small cell deployment challenges

Interactive End-of-the-DayRoundtable:Protection of the Backhaul & IP Layer

AGENDA AT A GLANCE:Where will YOU have your say?

22-24 April 2013 | Hotel Russell, London

Day Two | Wednesday 24 April

Brainstorming Session: Leveraging Ethernet to maximise benefits of LTE

Panel Discussion: Optimising transport resources against rapidincrease in bandwidth demands

We’re EE – the new network for your digital life.

We already have the UK’s biggest 3G network. Now we're launching the UK’sfirst mobile 4G network. It will give you superfast internet speeds on yourmobile, tablet or laptop. Along with our new Fibre Broadband, it meanssuperfast internet - at home, at work and on the go.

That’s just the start, there’s so much more to come and we can’t wait to show you. Visithttp://www.ee.co.uk to preregister for 4G and Fibre Broadband.

Oh and when we talk about Superfast 4G, how fast your 4G will be depends on a couple ofthings: where you are and how many other people are using 4G too.
