Wireline carriers are migrating their core architectures
to an all-IP environment in what is one of the most
landscape-altering evolutions in telecom's 133-year history.
IP promises greater margins and more service flexibility,
but it's not just technology at issue: providers also have
to build compelling services.
xchange has set out to uncover IP's expanding chambers of
opportunity, while providing guidance on how to effectively
capitalize on those. Whether it's an MSO tapping
enterprises, rural telcos finding differentiation, or a CLEC
gaining a leg up on an incumbent with a converged service,
IP can provide the underlying engine for growth.
