Multimedia - Why Now? • WAN bandwidth increased by 2-3 orders of magnitude • Access bandwidth increased by 2 orders of magnitude • Voice and data networks are converging • Basic voice service price will be eroded • Enhanced services and multimedia will become the main source of revenue • The next-gen service providers epidemic!
IP TELEPHONY = voice + video + data IP networks IP TELEPHONY (a.k.a. - voice/video/data convergence) Real time voice, video and data communication over Internet Protocol (IP) networks
