With little infrastructure based competition dynamics available there has not been a big push for fibre-based network. Ultimately these networks are going to replace the current copper-based and HFC-based telephone and cable TV networks. These upgrades will take 10-15 years to complete. The first large scale projects will be implemented between 2006 and 2008. I analyse migration models and makes suggestions on how to move forward.

IP facilitates data communications and file transfers via networked computers. As an enduring communications technology, it was logical for IP to be adapted for voice communications, given people’s predilection to voice communications. Much hype surrounded the potential for VoIP services, and technological improvements were reportedly heralding Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) to the desktop PC as well as network backbone systems. I will analyse the VoIP industry, and highlights the market problems and business opportunities.

While Unbundled Local Loop service were economic unviable for voice service, it provided the right platform for semi-infrastructure based broadband competition. Several telcos and ISPs are now installing their own DSLAM infrastructure and by early 2006 more than tens of thousands of DSLAMS were either installed or commissioned. ADSL2+ became available over the first installed DSLAMs in late 2003 and this development is going to lead to a broadband capacity explosion over the rest of this decade, with triple play business models delivering VoIP and IPTV as well as high speed Internet access.
