Worldwide Telecommunications Industry Revenue to hit $2.4 Trillion in 2020, says Insight Research

market analysis reports

DURANGO, Colo., March 10, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Insight Research projects that telecommunications services revenue worldwide will grow from $2.2 trillion in 2015 to $2.4 trillion in 2019. Insight's newly-released market analysis report, "The 2015 Telecommunications Industry Review: An Anthology of Market Facts and Forecasts" includes regional and service forecasts, assessment of key growth drivers, analysis of industry trends, network infrastructure and access technologies, future services, OSS/BSS and capex spending, and enterprise telecom markets.

Wireless subscriber growth compounded with rising smartphone and tablet traffic will raise global wireless revenues by 19 percent from current levels; while wireline revenues will rise only four percent as voice calls decline and users switch to mobile solutions.

"The path to sustained growth will be bumpy, fluctuating around a modest underlying rate for the next few years. The upturn in the major non-Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries - the US, European Union (EU), Japan, and 27 other developed countries-especially in Asia and particularly in China, is now a well-established source of strength for the global economy," says Bob Rosenberg, President of Insight Research.

"Consumer demand for the latest wireless devices and greater access bandwidth remains a key driver of telecommunications services growth, and the shift to Cloud-based solutions is starting to put new demands on network utilization," Rosenberg concluded.

$30 Billion U.S. Telecommunications Private Line Services Market Starts to Decline, says Insight Research Corp.

market analysis study

DURANGO, Colo., Nov. 3, 2014 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The $30 billion U.S. private line services market has finally entered a period of no growth, says a market analysis study from Insight Research. Private line had always been a growth market for telcos and has been tracked by Insight for more than 18 years showing steadily increasing revenue growth. Yet the market is expected to decline 2.3 percent over the next five years, as the shift to packet-based Internet services allow customers to get higher bandwidth at lower costs which, in turn, is putting downward pressure on private line revenues.

Private lines are leased point-to-point circuits that are used for a variety of applications, including connecting enterprise locations, backhauling cell towers to mobile switching centers, and providing video services to households and mobile devices. The new study, "Private Line and Wavelength Services, 2014-2019," provides an in-depth analysis of the four major market drivers that are actually increasing equivalent circuit counts, even as revenues decline.

"We have reached one of those unique periods where demand is rising yet revenues are in decline. Price erosion and the shift to lower unit pricing at higher bandwidth tiers are to blame," says Robert Rosenberg, President of Insight Research.

"This phenomena needs to be understood in the context of a mature market. Mature markets can be very profitable, and can remain viable for years or even decades-but mature markets do not exhibit growth," Rosenberg concluded.

"Private Line and Wavelength Services, 2014-2019" evaluates the total private line market and segments it by local and long distance private line service revenue, wholesale and retail private line revenue, revenue by type of carrier, revenue by T1, T3 or OC-n circuit class, as well as the number of T1, T3, and OC-n private lines sold. Estimates of wavelength revenues are also provided.

5 Bars Communities Named Official Wireless Consultant for the San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor Agency’s 73 Toll Road

73 Toll Road

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 28, 2014 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- 5 Bars Communities(TM) announced today that it has been selected as the chief wireless consultant for the San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor Agency's 73 Toll Road.

5 Bars Communities(TM) will develop a Wireless Master Plan for the 73 Toll Road. The scope of the project includes benchmarking the existing coverage of the major wireless carriers, gaps in coverage, and the development of a comprehensive plan to ensure continuity of connectivity throughout the 15-mile toll road. The Master Plan is intended to improve cellular coverage for residents, commuters and local residents who use the 73 Toll Road and rely on their cell phones and wireless devices for business, recreation or emergencies. It is anticipated that the plan will include the use of "small cells" as opposed to full-scale macro cell sites.

"Our customers are primarily commuters who value time savings. Continual mobile phone usage is important to our drivers and we look forward to exploring how that can be accomplished," said Lisa Telles, Chief Communications Officer of the Transportation Corridor Agencies.

Amid growing demands for high-speed mobile broadband connectivity, the addition of strategically and sensitively placed cell sites on the 73 Toll Road will improve safety and provide added convenience for commuters.

The Master Plan will be developed based on projected 2020 wireless usage.

"The 73 Toll Road is a terrific amenity of Orange County and ubiquitous end to end wireless coverage is important for commuting efficiency and public safety," said CEO, John Clarey. "At 5 Bars Communities we believe that users of the toll road should be able to travel the entire 15 miles of the Toll Road without the threat of dropping a call. We look forward to developing a plan to bring state of the art connectivity to the 73."

About 73 Toll Road:
State Route 73 is a highway in Southern California, extending from the junction with the Interstate 405 in Irvine through the San Joaquin Hills to its junction with Interstate 5 in San Juan Capistrano. The entirety of the route is located in Orange County. The first three miles of the highway are the Corona del Mar Freeway; the next 12 miles of the 15, are a toll road operated by the San Joaquin Corridor. Its alignment follows an approximately parallel path between the Pacific Coast and the San Diego freeways.

SR 73 begins in San Juan Capistrano at an interchange with 1-5. The freeway heads northwest into the city of Laguna Niguel and continues into the city of Aliso Viejo before entering Laguna Beach, where SR 73 intersects SR 133. After leaving the state park, SR 73 straddles the border between Irvine and Newport Beach. Entering Costa Mesa, SR 73 interchanges with SR 55 before merging with I-405 and terminating the route.
