Abstract
The BuddeComm Infrastructure Series is intended to give non-specialists a
comprehensive technical introduction to the current and emerging
infrastructure technologies allowing them to understand the ways that the
technology can apply to their own situation.
The BuddeComm Infrastructure Series is a compilation of the following current publications:
- Global NGN, IP and VoIP - Global Overview, Analyses and Statistics
- Global NGN, IP and VoIP - Americas, Europe, Africa, Middle East, Asia,
Pacific
- Global Telecoms Analyses and Forecasts
- Telecoms Infrastructure Technology - Volume 1 - Last Mile
- Telecoms Infrastructure Technology - Volume 2 - Long Distance & Data
With a market rapidly changing from traditional voice based products to one
that must cater for a wide range of data driven media applications, a totally
new operational structure is required. Next Generation Networks (NGNs) are
leading this transformation by integrating telecoms with IT. This forms the
core of the new environment of digital media. NGNs enable the convergence of
multiple applications to run on the same network, including voice, data and
video (triple play) - as well as other new media applications.
Digital Media however can only be fully developed once there are wide spread
high- speed broadband networks available. This demand for broadband will lead
to the further development of fibre networks, as the current copper-based
networks simply cannot handle the increased capacities required.
Incumbent telcos often run hundreds, even thousands, of operational support
systems, so this clearly indicates the size of the task ahead. Implementation
of NGNs is often over promised and under delivered and full implementation
could easily take a decade to fully accomplish.
Over the next 12 to 18 months, we will see a continuation of large scale fibre
announcements from the various incumbent telcos around the globe. Key leaders
include the telcos in Japan, Korea, USA, Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland,
Belgium, France and the Scandinavian countries.
Fixed-line voice will probably be with us forever, but it will also become a
subset of broadband instead of the other way around. Despite retaining its
role as cash cows for incumbent operators fixed and mobile voice services are
progressively being overtaken by broadband. In the western world, wireless
broadband offers new opportunities as a competitor for DSL in some niche
markets.
VoIP, an application running on NGNs, has already started to gain traction in
the market, but as a stand alone product it is unlikely to become a
replacement for fixed line telephony. In Europe, the product is becoming very
popular in triple play business models as is IPTV another product that is
gaining momentum.
The BuddeComm Infrastructure Series examines the future of telecommunications,
as NGNs develop into an IP based telco environment. The series includes
analysis and statistics, with an emphasis on the first deliverable VoIP. It
also includes an historical overview, key trends and developments, extensive
technical information and detailed information on convergence and FttH
infrastructure.
For those with a need for more detailed technical information, the BuddeComm
Infrastructure Series also explains areas such as ADSL / VDSL, Hybrid Fibre
Coax Cable (HFC) networks, Free Space Optical technologies, long distance
optical fibre technologies, traditional and advanced methods of modulating
data, SDH/SONET ring architecture and the use of new technologies, including
Resilient Packet Rings, optical switching and Generalised Multiprotocol Label
Switching (GMPLS) to build flexible, redundant, long distance networks.
The various Ethernet physical technologies are also discussed along with an
extensive introduction to Quality of Service (QoS) and Multiprotocol Label
Switching (MPLS) techniques, which are essential for the reliable delivery of
voice, data and video services using Ethernet and TCP/IP packet technologies.
The series provides vital insight into the challenges of providing full
end-to-end QoS reservation of bandwidth and assurance of packet delivery over
both core and edge (last-mile) networks.
The BuddeComm Infrastructure Series is a unique publication which provides
critical insights, explanations on the technologies involved in the
infrastructure market and on industry developments. Corporate managers,
financial and investment consultants, IT consultants and Government and
education bodies will find this series particularly useful.
