Abstract
Designing and deploying an all-IP network is something for which
every telecommunications service provider must plan. This report lays out
the technical, organizational, and product planning factors to consider in
this transition and presents the experience of three current operators
of 100%-IP networks in emerging markets.
"From a technical perspective, the
benefits of all-IP networks are fairly well-known: A common IP
foundation makes it easier to converge services, manage hardware, and
cut expenses. Our interviews also revealed that SPs that have
completed the transition can realize additional benefits by streamlining their
organizations and bringing products to market more quickly." – Senior
Research Analyst Andy Hicks, IDC CEMA
