Multimedia Wireless System 41 GHz The broadband solution for local loop access Pricing Strategy
Objectives • Demonstrate the super value of MWS 41 GHz by Thomson Multimedia and Thales • High Quality system • Deliver full range of services such as VoD, Fast Internet, Digital Tv Broadcast… • Low cost of equipment, installation and maintenance • Market • MWS is aimed at providing broadband in the local loop for residential users • Triple play offer to residential mass market • Operators are price sensitive • Focused on debt reduction and low cost infrastructure expansion for fast ROI • MWS pricing • A low cost complementary Broadband access technology for low to medium density areas
Terms and definitions used • Cost and price • Cost: Industrial transfer price to the GIE (equivalent to CPP) • Price / Operator price* : Transfer price from the GIE to the MSO • Cost x 1.33 for CPEs • Cost x 1.45 for Base station and Headends • Subscriber price : Selling price to the subscriber • Operator price x 1.15 • Exchange rate 1€ = $ 0.9 • HHP: Household Passed • Potential subscribers taking into account the line of sight constraint * Current value
Agenda • MWS 1st Generation • MWS 2nd Generation • Deployment 2nd Generation • Cost Comparison • Other
To be confirmed Cost for 1st Generation solution : CPE • CPE (Operator price if produced per 100 batch) • ODU : € 2830 • NIU : € 2990 • Total CPE : € 5820
Operator Price for 1G solution : Base Station • * Without installation Cost • ** Does not include Pylon

Base Station Price Evolution per configuration Nb : Pylon and Installation cost not included
Agenda • MWS 1st Generation • MWS 2nd Generation • Deployment 2nd Generation • Cost Comparison • Other
Market segmention • Low infrastructure countries • Complete offer • New Entrant • Substitution technology • Telcos • Expansion with new offer • Cable MSOs • Low cost expansion towards Rurban area • Same level of services • Opportunity to access new market at lower cost Premium Target
Conflans (1100) Cesson (1800) Paris (>13000) The Rurban Area • Medium density area from 200HH/Km² to 1600 HH/Km² • Residential • Individual houses or Small buildings • Usually Unwired zone • Not economically profitable for cable MSO • High investments in regards to possible revenues • Need low cost solution Usually Wired (Cable, Short Length ADSL,FTTB…) Usually Unwired RURBAN 150 1600 HH/Km²
The Rurban Area (2) Source: Analysys Cable HHP : UK=51%; France=32%; Germany = 86%; Italy = 5% Source: OECD
Rurban: Typical deployment • Cell size : 2.5 Km radius = 20 km² • Density : 800 HH per Km² • Line of sight coverage: 60% on 4 Sectors • Adressable market per Base Station: 7800 HHP • Services: • 48 Tv programs (12 per RF) • 512 Kbps downstream data rate • INA sollicitation 1/8 • Not taken into account Broadband link to the base station, civil works and installation cost
Rurban: Typical deployment (2) Price per HHP increases with the necessity of additional equipment Investment directly related to the number of subscribers
Typical deployment for Conflans Ste-Honorine (1100 HH / Km²)
