OVERVIEW
The International Engineering Consortium (IEC) introduces the latest in its series of comprehensive reports, The Business of Broadband: Access and Applications, which focuses on the issues involved in delivering broadband applications.
The problems of digital subscriber line (DSL) and cable Internet providers in selling basic access are well known. Many in the industry believe that it is the applications that broadband will enable—rather than the mere fact of speedy data—that will push high-speed service out into the marketplace. The Business of Broadband: Access and Applications focuses on those applications and on the business models that will make them available and make them profitable.
This report addresses issues related to delivering products and services over broadband, including the technical and business challenges of providing multimedia entertainment, video and other services on demand, interactive television, the wireless Web, videoconferencing, telemedicine, and more. The report also considers the current and potential markets for such applications, the business models providers that can adopt, pricing and fee structures, et cetera. Case studies from service providers around the world are also presented.
With its range of perspectives on the forces driving growth in the broadband and high-speed access sectors, The Business of Broadband: Access and Applications is a critical resource for any communications company that hopes to profit from the evolutions in broadband applications and services.
