  12. Borderless networks • National telecom dominance has nearly disappeared (on the long haul routes) • Competition and lower prices on the popular routes • Less difference between national and international prices, if any

  14. Bandwidth growth factors • last mile upgrades • cable, dsl, fixed wireless, MANs, fibre to the kerb/home

  15. Backbone growth options • Add parallel links • upgrade from 2.5 to 10 Gbps • finer mesh ?? • add parallel links • new technical developments
