Telecom Reseller / Technology Reseller News

“AI is causing such a strain on the energy grid that CSPs need every tool they can to keep costs and compliance in check,” says Adrian Barcia, Product Marketing Specialist at iconectiv. In a conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, Barcia explained how iconectiv’s Common Language codes—CLI (equipment-level) and SILI (site-level)—help communication service providers (CSPs) and data center operators achieve energy efficiency while strengthening compliance and operational planning. Barcia outlined how CLI codes provide critical details such as power requirements, heat output, and environmental tolerances, enabling CSPs to select energy-efficient equipment and configure networks more effectively. On the location side, SILI codes give operators precise functional context to optimize site selection, network planning, and service delivery, reducing over-engineering and energy waste. With AI workloads driving unprecedented computing demand, energy efficiency has become a top-tier strategic cost for CSPs. Barcia emphasized that using iconectiv’s Common Language can cut energy costs by up to 1% annually—equating to $2.4–$12 million in savings for a medium-sized wireless network or data center. Beyond savings, Common Language also helps operators prepare for stricter energy regulations while maintaining service quality. “Now is a prime opportunity for CSPs to gain detailed insights into their network assets,” Barcia noted. “We’re ready to partner with providers to unlock savings, compliance, and smarter network growth.” To learn more, visit https://iconectiv.com/.
