The Bandwidth Demand Surge: Drivers & Solutions for Network Operators

Overview The surplus network capacity that characterized the post-bubble telecom environment has quickly evaporated, due to a confluence of market factors. Peer-to-peer networking traffic, characterized by high-bandwidth file sharing, is placing a growing strain on network resources. The emergence of Voice Over IP (VOIP) as a mainstream telecommunications service is putting further pressure on IP network resources regarding not only bandwidth demand, but also Quality Of Service (QOS) requirements. IPTV, Internet video content, music downloading, and online gaming applications are still in the formative stages of development and are certain to push consumer bandwidth demand even higher for the foreseeable future.
