Here's what we're seeing in enterprise wireless: assurance goes resident. Thousand Eyes agents land in Wi-Fi 7/6E APs in December; RADIUS, DHCP and DNS validation rides in the base subscription. That changes the buying decision. @Cisco @650group 650group.com/blog/cisco-thou… #AI

Rambus just deployed ChipAgents across its chip design flow — and took equity. If its internal QoR numbers hold, we expect wider agentic adoption through 2027. @650group @RambusInc 650group.com/blog/rambus-chi… #AI #ChipDesign

Nokia's AI-RAN made its first live-network call, T-Mobile put the first AI-RAN call through a live commercial network from Bellevue, Washington, running commercial ARC servers with Nokia's CUDA-accelerated RAN software on massive MIMO radios. BT and Deutsche Telekom will conduct 2027 field trials using NVIDIA ARC gear with Nokia software and know-how. 650group.com/blog/nokia-nvid… @Nokia @650group @nvidia #AI #5G

It lets companies deploy agents customized to their environment, not consumer-class agents/bots that many companies have already banned.

SpaceX Q3: $14.6B revenue, +161% Y/Y; former xAI swung to a $431M op profit. Two virtuous cycles: launch runs near break-even, Connectivity earned $2.4B of segment income, and SI profits fund $16.4B of capex. We wrote it up: 650group.com/blog/spacex-q3-… #SpaceX @650group

6G just left the lab. Verizon and Ericsson ran the first pre-standard 6G call in 7 GHz: outdoor, 400 MHz carrier, a live commercial site. We read it as the quarter's most load-bearing 6G datapoint — site economics now set the clock. 650group.com/blog/ericssons-… @650group #6G

You're planning inference around memory you don't have. Gen-2 Structera X: six DDR5/DDR4 channels, PCIe Gen 6, 2-3x capacity, samples Q1 2027. We see scale-up standardizing: one retimer now speaks Ethernet, UALink and ESUN. 650group.com/blog/marvell-do… @650group #AI #CXL

We see the next AI power fight forming in the 48V conversion layer. Renesas's first 100V E-mode GaN drops into silicon footprints as 800VDC racks push megahertz-class conversion. Every efficiency point in that layer compounds across a fleet. @650group 650group.com/blog/renesas-10… #AI

Pluggable optics forked: air-cooled versus liquid. Cisco and NVIDIA's USFP runs 400G SerDes to 12.8T, air-cooled. Arista's XPO buys density with liquid. We think USFP is the low-risk bet, and no next-gen pluggable ships linear. @Cisco @NVIDIA 650group.com/blog/cisco-char… #AI

We see AI racks heading to ~108 kW, en route to megawatt-class. Infineon's 27 kW PSU design: >98% efficient, 116 W/in³ vs the 94 W/in³ ORV3 floor, 20 ms ride-through. Power density now decides who wins rack slots. @Infineon @650group 650group.com/blog/infineon-2… #AI

As OCP Day 1 closes out, we took a count of OCP related press releases and the number is up 56% Y/Y versus last year and there are still 3 days to go. #OCPGlobalSummit2026 @opencomputeprj @650group
