The telecommunications sector is generally
in much better shape to move forward than it was four years
ago. To understand the state of the industry today, you
should bear in mind that a) telecommunications firms worldwide
suffered some of the heaviest blows in the technology stocks
collapse of the early 2000s, b) mergers, consolidation and
financial restructuring have completely changed the landscape,
c) globalization is heating up competition, d) deregulation
and privatization will have a continual effect on the telecom
sector worldwide, and e) rapid advances in telecom technology
will continue unabated.
No other industry touches as many technology-related
business sectors as telecommunications, which by definition
encompasses not only the traditional areas of local and
long-distance telephone services, but also advanced technology-based
services including wireless communications, the Internet,
fibre optics and satellites. Telecom is also deeply intertwined
with cable TV systems, since cable companies are now aggressively
offering local exchange service and Internet service. The
relationship between the telecom and cable sectors has become
even more complex as telcos are now selling TV via IP (Internet
protocol) services, competing directly against cable for
consumers' entertainment dollars.
The Baby Bells are adapting to today’s
environment which includes a flat market for local landlines,
continued growth in cellular subscribers, and rapid adoption
of broadband access to the Internet by homes and businesses.
Meanwhile, traditional telecommunications providers face
rapidly growing competition from VOIP (voice over Internet
Protocol) and voice over cable.
Many services companies are taking advantage
of existing fiber optics systems to create new products
and service offerings. Fiber to the home and fiber to the
business are becoming realities. In particular, Verizon
has launched very aggressive, long term fibre to the premises
projects. A large surplus of fibre capacity remains.
In this exciting reference report, we take
a broad look at the business of telecommunications. This
carefully-researched book (which includes a database of
leading companies on CD-ROM) is a complete telecommunications
market research and business intelligence tool-- everything
you need to know about the business of ILECs, CLECs, Baby
