AI is triggering one of the fastest surges in power demand the data center industry has ever seen—projected to rise 50% by 2027 and up to 165% by 2030.

The question isn't if power becomes the constraint. It's how operators respond before it limits growth.

"How AI Data Centers' Demand for Electricity is Impacting Telecom Power" is a must-attend session for anyone navigating the intersection of AI, infrastructure, and network operations. You'll hear from leaders at Verizon, MPI Energy, Vertiv, and C&D Technologies on what's really driving the electricity crunch, how leading operators are adapting to massive increases in power consumption, and how innovations like Fault Managed Power (FMP) and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are reshaping communications networks.

There are great shows in this industry. If you’re deep in a single technology, there’s probably an event built exactly for you.

But if you’re responsible for a network that runs on more than one technology—or you’re making decisions about where fiber, wireless, edge, and AI all have to work together—a single-medium event leaves real questions unanswered.

ISE EXPO is built for the total network practitioner. The one who doesn’t have the luxury of thinking in only one lane.

Fiber. 5G. Edge. Core & Access. Satellite. AI-driven operations. One event. One conversation. Join us August 18–20 in Nashville.
