Hong Kong& 39;s Fiber to the home and fiber to the floor increases the penetration rate of the world
Article by jekky
Hong Kong SAR Government departments data show that fiber to the home and fiber to the floor, plus LAN coverage had reached 21.2%, surpassing South Korea and Japan as the world. Statistics show that 2.5 million households in Hong Kong which, with 1.98 million and 1.36 million households were installed at least two and three fixed line operators to self-built customer access networks. This means that 79% of Hong Kong and 55% of households have been at least two and three fixed network operators to choose from. Hong Kong fixed-line operators have as many as 11, while mobile operators have up to six, which has 3G licenses to operators, there are five. PCCW as a minority have both fixed and mobile network operators, the business has maintained a rapid innovation by innovation. Hong Kong SAR’s total population of only 6.9 million, up 140% mobile phone penetration, competition, can be described as tragic. And it is such a competitive environment, forcing operators to upgrade networks have accelerated, providing a higher rate, to meet user demand for bandwidth increased accordingly. October 24 last year, as the 16th China International Communication Equipment and Technology Exhibition is an important activity during the, “ICT China 2007 Forum” held in Beijing, Vice Minister Jiang Yaoping, attended the meeting. Mrs Marion Lai, Director of the Hong Kong Telecommunications Authority’s speech at the conference Record: Mrs Lai: Chiang Minister, Ladies and Gentlemen, Hello everybody, I am very honored to have the opportunity to introduce the integration of innovation in Hong Kong, under the circumstances and opportunities. First look at the profile of the Hong Kong market. Hong Kong’s population of only 6.9 million, 11 fixed network operators, mobile network operators have five is 2G, 4 home is 3G, you can see from these figures that competition is very fierce, mobile penetration reached 140%, in 06, 2007, 140 million mobile users successfully on a special network operators from Hong Kong, they released the information, integration, innovation, opportunities are real-life examples in Hong Kong. Cable using VOIP technology, and digital coaxial cable network to provide telephone service. Some network operators open their networks to allow pay TV operators can access more of the household. The new approach of operating the roll-out high-speed fiber-optic broadband network, such as Hong Kong’s next-generation broadband network to provide voice FTTH technology, Internet access and pay television services, according to the analysis of international organizations, their latest data, Hong Kong household penetration of FTTH services, 21%, leading South Korea and Japan, at the forefront of the world. In fact, integration, innovation, business opportunities are not limited to network services, enhanced wireless access services, mobile services, machines, consumers benefit more in Hong Kong, WIFI service coverage has reached 5000 points, is fundamentally a business investment, operators and WIFI HSDPA (3.5G) service package, to provide consumers with wireless access services without borders. In these developments, how the role of regulatory bodies like? Hong Kong’s Telecommunications Authority’s mission is to introduce innovative technology, the use of wireless broadband access technologies, operators can provide fixed or mobile services, OFTA will issue a license. Under this license, operators can choose to provide fixed or mobile network services. Now fixed and mobile service convergence is occurring, in fact, two of the boundaries has become increasingly blurred, our regulatory system to advance with the times and promote the development of FMC, we need to address the current regulatory regime for the integration of obstacles, we need to control two different services, using the same system, allowing operators to simultaneously provide both services. In Hong Kong, operators have different phase of the launch of next-generation networks, IP technology is basically used. The NGN allows integration of fixed and mobile services, in the same network to provide telecommunications and broadcasting services integration. We as a regulator for the regulation of NGN should be how what? First of all, of the licensing system must cope with the trends, we need to eliminate barriers to technological development, allowing operators to offer multiple services, we have a technology-neutral, open network, so that operators can on the network infrastructure and content points home to enhance the expertise to provide the best service, we must avoid over-regulation, do not want to hinder the development of NGN. One of the new innovation and technology is the mobile TV service, the mobile TV service is an integrated multimedia products, mobile TV service platform for point to point, 2.5G and 3G mobile phone network is one example, point to the multi- point of service have different formats, such as DVBH so the opportunities for mobile TV services, unlimited, including content production or advertising, the scope of regulation, we need to pay attention to is the spectrum of the supply, distribution, assignment, and hair licensing arrangements, etc., we in Hong Kong has been launched mobile TV services in consultation, this has already begun, when the policy implemented after the Telecommunications Authority will be made as soon as possible with the payment of the spectrum. Basically we need to provide network capacity to intervene, and promote the introduction of new technology services that allows operators to smoothly transition to next-generation network, the network can promote mobility, access and reliability. For mobile TV, BWA spectrum resources available, payment must be properly photographed.
