Where were we in Feb 05? VoIP Peering Summit I We were looking for some direction (MapQuest To: Bi-Lateral VoIP Peering From: Here) (MapQuest To: Multi-lateral VoIP Peering From: Here)
Where are we now in Jan 06? • “2006 will be the Year of VoIP Peering” • Rich Tehrani TMC • CableLabs RFI on VoIP Peering • 18 Billion Minutes Peering on the VPF • Telefonica signs with Infiniroute for VoIP Peering conversion services
What Happened? • Time Passed • Mature Technology Materialized • New problems were met with newer solutions • A sound business case emerged • VoIP Trunking is about lower cost for termination = Lower OPEX
What Changed? • Perception • Reality
What is REALLY happening? • ENUM – that’s what! • SIP – that’s what! • Carrier cost savings of 50%+ • Provisioning and termination • Enterprise cost savings of 50%+ • Provisioning and termination • No loops • Contract term compression • Wholesale rates
Show of Hands • How many of you believe? • It has begun? • It works? • It’s growing? • It’s the future? • Good for all of those hands because it is the TRUTH!
Where will we be in Oct 06? • VoIP Peering Summit IV! • Major Enterprise VoIP Peering Announcements • Drive enterprise awareness • Drive more carriers to offer SIP based peering links to their networks
Where will we be in Oct 06? • VoIP Peering is adopted as a sales strategy by • Integrators • Hardware Vendors • Transport Providers • Carrier Hotels • Others…
Does Voice Traffic Decrease? NO • VoIP Peering is a catalyst for even MORE calls as OPEX is reduced dramatically • Flat rate, unlimited use calling plans create a worry-free, no overage, no BIG BILL environment
Community Development • VoIP Peering enables business-class P2P • The evolution of email to voice • From the inter-networked community grows • New business processes • New services • New revenues Never Before Conceived!
State of VoIP Peering Summary Ride the Wave of Time • This is all a simple matter of evolution • Off-the-shelf technology • Mature MIS and IT departments • IP knowledge and trust • Ethernet transport availability • The same network growth pattern of ISP’s in the early 90’s unfolds again • Peering makes sense, Peering works!
