Every call on your network is two people who just want to talk, and thousands of things that have to hold. Our engineers make the changes without either of them noticing.

The network behind your network.

Your network is the people you’re trying to reach. Behind it are the people who make sure you can.

Great to welcome A***n Zeka from American Chamber of Commerce in Kosovo to our offices yesterday.

We started the process for Mikkena’s membership and talked through how we can work together to support Kosovo’s growing business community.

Thank you for the visit, A***n. More to come.

AT&T's first copper discontinuance takes effect on 15 November. BT switches off its PSTN on 31 January 2027.

Until those dates, someone still has to run the TDM and SS7 platforms. The engineers who know them are retiring or moving to fiber.

Four kinds of vendor will take on that work:
Platform vendors like Ribbon and Alianza support and replace the switch.
Signaling bureaus like TNS, Syniverse and BICS host your SS7.
Managed services firms take over the whole NOC.
Specialist squads like Mikkena run the platform you already own until the switch-off date.

Lorik Bejta's guide explains who does what, and lists five things to get in writing from each before you sign.

Mikkena turns 5 today.

5 years of migrations and 2 a.m. change windows taught us that every network that stays up has 2 teams behind it, and that you find out what a partner is worth on the day the plan breaks. We wrote down 5 lessons about partnership in our latest newsletter.

Thank you to every operator and partner who's been on the other end of the line with us since 2021. Here's to the next 5.

The more complex a network gets, the more it depends on the quality of the connections holding it together. Thousands of cables can run in different directions, across different sites and systems, but when every connection is where it should be, all that complexity starts to make sense.

The same is true of the people behind the network. Telecom brings together engineers, field teams, operators, customers and partners, often across different markets and under tight timelines. The work moves because those people know how to work together, communicate when something changes and trust each other to take care of their part.

And somewhere along the way, things can get tangled. A project changes direction, another layer gets added, more people get involved, and something that once felt simple becomes harder to follow.

Sometimes, all it takes is the right set of hands to start making sense of it again. To follow each line, understand where it leads, and bring some order to what’s become complicated along the way.

That’s how we like to approach the work at Mikkena. Patient enough to understand what’s already there, experienced enough to know where to start, and always thinking about how the next person will pick up where we left off.

Because good connections hold everything together.

Twenty-five years ago today.

We remember the 2,977 people who did not come home, and everyone who has carried that day since.

From Pristina, we stand with our colleagues and friends in the United States.

Every network hits a wall.

A market that’s difficult to reach. A timeline that keeps getting tighter. A resource gap at exactly the wrong time. An infrastructure problem nobody planned for.

The question isn’t whether those problems will happen. It’s what happens next.

Because in telecom, “that can’t be done” usually means the right solution hasn’t been found yet.

Rethink the route. Bring in the right expertise. Add capacity. Solve the problem. Keep the network moving.

That’s the mindset behind our latest campaign.

When there’s a will, there’s a WAN.

A little wordplay. A very real telecom philosophy.

There’s always a way forward. You just have to find it.

It started with a simple thought from our founder : very little of what matters is built alone.

A handshake needs two hands. A conversation needs someone on the other end. A bridge needs two sides to connect. And a strong partnership needs both sides to show up.

After years in telecom, that thought became something bigger. A philosophy for how we work, how we build relationships, and how we show up for our partners.

We don’t believe in simply being another vendor on a list. We believe in becoming an extension of the team. Moving when our partners move. Owning the problems together. Building the wins together.

We found a simple way to put it:

It Takes Two to Telecom.

More than a campaign. It’s how we believe telecom should work.
