Replay of webinar on emerging markets and fiber deployment, presented by Benoit Felten and Wally Swain.
Assumptions about Anywhere Network® deployment opportunities and constraints often break down when looking at emerging markets. Developed market constraints might not exist and costs might be much lower, but market conditions and prices are also very different. Is fiber to the home (FTTH) a marginal phenomenon for emerging markets, or could it be an interesting solution to help many of these markets leapfrog the copper era?
Earlier today, I was joined by Wally Swain for a webinar in which we detailed existing FTTx deployments in emerging markets, examined opportunities for existing or new players to enter the next-generation access market and explored the implications for technology vendors. The audience was terrific, with lots of pointed and insightful questions–tune in below for the replay.
The webinar runs about an hour: audio (mp3) and slides (pdf)
