In this episode of the Data Center Frontier Show, Matt Vincent, Editor-in-Chief of Data Center Frontier is joined by Liam Weld, Head of Data Centers for Meter to discuss why connectivity for data centers is often forgotten about. Everyone focuses on power and cooling to the building, and just assumes the building's Wi-Fi will be bad, cell reception will be worse, and that operators should simply work around it. The result is slow inspections, delayed installs, weak safety systems, and operational drag across teams that depend on reliable signal to do their jobs.

In this conversation, we examine why connectivity fails inside data center environments and the impact on operations, safety, and uptime. We’ll walk through practical solutions that operators are adopting today, like Meter's unified wired, wireless, and cellular networks that reduce complexity and improve reliability.

Finally, we’ll look ahead at how high-bandwidth network architectures in the data halls will converge, become easier to manage, and rely even more on Ethernet long term.
