Abstract
This IDC study presents IDC' s fixed-line and mobile equipment capex forecasts for Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) or APEJ from 2007 to 2011. Its key features include forecasts for 11 APEJ markets - Australia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, the People' s Republic of China (PRC), Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand.
"APEJ has been a world leader in 2G GSM and 3G UMTS/HSDPA mobile services, broadband generic DSL (xDSL) access, long-haul optical DWDM transport, long distance VoIP, and wireless local loop (WLL) services," says Bill Rojas, research director, Communications Research, IDC Asia/Pacific. He further adds, "over the next five years, the region will start to witness fixed/mobile convergence (FMC) as integrated carriers seek to capitalize on 2G/3G mobile services and xDSL access along with new disruptive technologies such as wireless broadband. India and the PRC will continue to drive the bulk of fixed-line growth in the region but fixed-wireless substitution will have a tremendous potential in a number of markets, including Indonesia, the Philippines, the PRC, and India."
