Slide 5: Telecom in Transition – A Paradigm Shift in Network Infrastructure
Telecom in Transition – A Paradigm Shift in Network Infrastructure
Slide 6: 1. Many Networks Become One
1. Many Networks Become One • Previously we had dedicated voice solutions that offered one service per network: PSTN (fixed-line) and Mobile • The Internet is becoming the common carrier for all services • Growth comes as various wireless access technologies connect to the Internet
Slide 7: 2. Phones and Computers are Converging
2. Phones and Computers are Converging • Telephony is becoming an “App” • Computers have different form factors – Desktops, Laptops, PDAs – Mobile phones, Smart Phones • Connected to the Internet via various radio networks (multi-band) • Open OS (Linux, Symbian, Windows Mobile, etc) • Infrastructure
Slide 8: 3. Software is a Game Changer
3. Software is a Game Changer Soft-switches and Soft-routers will replace fixed switches and routers at fractions of the cost: – Higher performance – Scalability on-demand – Remote maintenance – Easy up-grades – Supports next generation services – deal for voice, data and video
Slide 9: 4. Commoditization of Network Infrastructure
4. Commoditization of Network Infrastructure • PCs as Servers – PCs will replace main frames • Low cost - hundreds versus hundreds of thousands of dollars – Clustering • High performance • Remote Maintenance • Back-up – Scalability • Easily add new servers
Slide 10: New Game with a Next Generation Network
…New Game with a Next Generation Network • Economics: – 1/5 to 1/10 the CAPEX and OPEX • Distribution: – New Breed of MVNOs (Costco, Sam’s Club) – Consumer VoIP providers (Skype) – CLECs and other Wholesale providers of “last mile” services. • Innovation – PC clustered servers – Softswitch Network –
