Data will be 65% of Total U.S. Mobile Revenue by 2016
August 15, 2012Data revenue will grow to 65 percent of total U.S. wireless service revenue as voice declines to 35 percent in 2016, according to Hugues de la Vergne, principal research analyst at Gartner.
What might not yet be so clear is how the industry will get to that point. Growing adoption of smart phones, with the new and significant data plan revenue, will play a key role, of course. Almost by definition, a smart phone activation will come with a boost in monthly revenue, from data access, of $20 to $40 a month.
SIP Trunking Set to Explode
August 1, 2012Try beating a growth rate of 770 percent over the next five years.
That’s the expected global growth rate of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) trunking over the next five years, according to a recent article by Hamid Qayyum, VP of MSO Sales at Metaswitch. SIP trunking, which delivers Voice-over-IP (VoIP) and streaming media services to customers with unified communications software applications or SIP-based private branch exchange system (IP-PBX), is expected to grow from 2.6 million SIP trunks in the first half of 2011 to nearly 22.3 million by 2015.
“SIP trunking is now the fastest-growing area of the VoIP marketplace, and all indications point to sustained growth for the foreseeable future, making it a very attractive business for both telco and cable providers,” Qayyum said in the article.
