Carriers' Success Hampers Spread of NGN Says In-Stat.SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- The current state of the wireless Next-Generation Network (NGN (Next Generation Networks) An umbrella term for mixed voice and data networks running over the IP protocol. See IP Multimedia Subsystem. ) is directly related to the success of carriers, reports In-Stat (http://www.in-stat.com). Those carriers that are content with the status quo [Latin, The existing state of things at any given date.] Status quo ante bellum means the state of things before the war. The status quo to be preserved by a preliminary injunction is the last actual, peaceable, uncontested status which preceded the pending controversy. are less inclined to take risks, and tend to limit their investment in NGN, the high-tech market research firm says. Most operators that have committed to a rapid NGN migration have done so because of adverse market conditions. "In 2007, only a few IMS (1) See IP Multimedia Subsystem. (2) (Information Management System) An early IBM hierarchical DBMS for IBM mainframes. IMS was widely implemented throughout the 1970s under MVS and continues to be used under z/OS. equipment supply contracts were announced," says Keith Nissen, In-Stat analyst. "Most were greenfield Greenfield, town (1990 pop. 18,666), seat of Franklin co., NW Mass., at the confluence of the Deerfield and Green rivers, near their junction with the Connecticut; settled 1686, set off from Deerfield and inc. 1753. deployments, or point solutions supporting VoIP, or IP Centrex A telephone service in which an IP-based PBX is located in the telephone company's facilities. It connects to the customer via the LAN rather than by telephone wires. IP CENTREX offers voice over IP and other IP-based services as well as connectivity to the regular telephone system (PSTN). ." Recent research by In-Stat found the following: * On the whole, 2007 was a very good year financially for most service providers worldwide, with relatively strong growth in 3G revenue. * 2007 worldwide wireless capital expenditure (CAPEX) spending was flat at US$173 billion. * By 2012, worldwide CAPEX spending will grow only slightly to US$182 billion. The research, "NGN Drivers and Inhibitors" (#IN0803955WWI WWI abbr. World War I WWI World War One ), covers the worldwide market for wireless Next-Generation Networks. It examines the current state of NGN development and explores the reasons why operators are making relatively risk-free investment decisions. A detailed look at why selected operators have chosen to build an NGN is presented, along with changing attitudes regarding network architecture and configurations. The report also reviews how the prevailing carrier market conditions are impacting global equipment suppliers. There is also discussion of some interesting, and possibly disruptive, trends that could have a profound impact on service provider markets. A worldwide capital expenditure (CAPEX) forecast covering 2008-2012 is presented, segmented by product category, network layer, and geographic region.
