16 WISPAPALOOZA SHOW I OCTOBER 13 – 16, 2025 www.bekabusinessmedia.com DAY 2 (Continued from page 15) Peraso Inc., a pioneer in mmWave wireless technology solutions, will showcase its innovative 60 GHz fixed wireless access (FWA) solutions during WISPAPALOOZA 2025. The company’s offerings are designed to provide multi-gigabit connectivity for WISPs across various markets, from rural communities to dense urban areas. Representatives from Peraso (booth 641) will feature the company’s advanced 60 GHz technology and discuss how the company’s solutions offer significant benefits, including lower cost, faster deployment times and reduced maintenance requirements. “As the demand for high-speed broadband continues to accelerate, Peraso is committed to equipping WISPs with solutions that are both high-performance and cost-effective,” said Ron Glibbery, CEO of Peraso. “Our 60 GHz FWA technology delivers fiber-like speeds while enabling rapid, scalable deployment. We look forward to engaging with industry leaders at WISPAPALOOZA 2025 and anticipate a strong reception as we explore new opportunities across key markets.” Peraso’s 60 GHz solutions offer clear advantages over other industry options by leveraging abundant spectrum, minimizing interference and delivering multi-gigabit speeds, all without the high costs or delays of traditional infrastructure or trenching. This gives WISPs a powerful alternative, with performance that rivals fiber. Engineered for multiple applications, including both dense urban areas and rural communities, Peraso’s technology enables providers to expand coverage quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively to help bridge the digital divide in historically underserved communities. Peraso has been a pioneer in high-performance mmWave phased array solutions for more than a decade. Attendees at WISPAPALOOZA 2025 are invited to visit Peraso’s booth to meet members of the executive team and experience the company’s mmWave technology first-hand. m Visit Peraso at WISPAPALOOZA booth 641. Peraso Showcases Fiber-Class Wireless Connectivity footprints while delivering battery-first reliability, HCI Energy gives WISPs the tools to scale sustainably and stay ahead of the grid. The company will showcase its Zero-Glitch Power Module (ZPM), proprietary battery-first power management that prevents downtime and predicts failure points before they happen, as well as the Hybrid Power Cabinet, a rugged, compact system built for smaller sites and edge deployments. Smarter energy management enables WISPs to: • Lower OpEx by reducing fuel usage and costly site visits • Extend asset life for stronger CapEx ROI • Deliver battery-first reliability to eliminate downtime • Provide remote monitoring with predictive failure alerts • Support long-term scalability in areas where the grid can’t keep up The HCI Energy team will be on hand to demo the technology and share how hybrid power can help protect profitability. m Visit HCI Energy at WISPAPALOOZA booth 528. DE-CIX, the world’s leading Internet Exchange (IX) operator, announced that its global ecosystem of exchanges is AI-ready, with the implementation of Phase 1 of its AI Internet Exchange (AI-IX) to support model training and inference. The company now has more than 50 AI-relevant networks—including AI-inference-as-a-service and GPU-as-a-service providers as well as cloud service providers—connected to its platform which offers more than 160 cloud on-ramps worldwide, plus scalable, proprietary multi-AI routing technology. The dedicated AI-IX is designed to ensure seamless interconnection between intelligent agents, next-gen networks such as 5G advanced and LEO satellites, and real-world applications including robotics and self-driving vehicles. Phase 2 of the rollout, expected soon, is intended to make the DE-CIX AI exchanges ultraethernet-ready, capable of supporting geographically distributed AI training, as model training begins to move out of centralized facilities. Rollout of both phases is being undertaken globally. As such, DE-CIX will become the first operator to offer an AI-IX that can support both training and inference. AI operations are generally divided into two phases: AI training and AI inference. Both benefit from AI peering advantages such as cost reductions, increased security, higher performance and reduced complexity, according to DE-CIX. “With various predictions made for millions— even hundreds of millions—of AI agents in the coming years, the need for interconnection services to support their operations is growing massively,” said Ivo Ivanov, CEO of DE-CIX. AI inference, in which the agent is applied to real-world situations to provide real-time insights interaction and support, “is dependent on highly resilient, low-latency and secure connectivity,” Ivanov said. “For enterprises to be able to exploit the advantages of AI, the digital lifeline consists of three elements, what I like to call the Digital Triangle of AI Inference Interconnection.” To Ivanov, those three elements include 1) the millions of agents currently emerging, many of which are multimodal; 2) AI-powered devices/ applications (cars, robots, processes, etc.); and 3) modern transmission technologies like fiber, 5G advanced and LEO satellite networks. All three elements must be interwoven in a reliable, secure and high-performance manner using direct interconnection, known as peering. “This is the core benefit of the DE-CIX AI-IX, which uses the DE-CIX AI router to enable seamless multi-agent inference for today’s complex use cases and tomorrow’s innovation in all industry segments,” Ivanov said. AI training models will be the focus of the Phase 2 rollout. With the advent of ultra ethernet, a new protocol for the routing of data traffic in a quality relevant for AI, the design of infrastructure for the heavy computations of AI training is changing. “Until now, huge, centralized data centers have been needed to quickly process AI computing loads on parallel clusters,” said Thomas King, CTO of DE-CIX. “Ultra ethernet is driving the trend toward disaggregated computing, enabling AI training to be carried out in a geographically distributed manner within a metropolitan area. This will revolutionize the infrastructure for AI training and offer companies new alternatives for designing resilient and more cost-effective private AI infrastructure.” The next iteration of the ultra ethernet standard will be rolled out once the software feature is made available by network hardware vendors and is expected to provide a significantly more cost-effective solution to the existing protocol for AI networking, InfiniBand. DE-CIX’s hardware can already support the enhanced ethernet standard, and the operator will make it available upon rollout. m Visit DE-CIX at WISPAPALOOZA booth 130.
