Cellular  vs.  Land  Mobile  

• Ubiquitous  coverage  

• Volume  produc(on  

• Global  roaming  

• Customer  familiarity  

•  IP  based  at  core  

Ubiquitous  Coverage  

•  GSM  covers  around  97%  of  popula(on  (8%  of  land  mass)  

•  3G  covers  up  to  98.5%  of  popula(on    (over  15%  of  landmass)  

•  In-­‐building  coverage  

Global  roaming  

Wireless  networks  are  globally  ubiquitous    Today's  market  is  a  global  one.  

Build  once  deploy  everywhere.  

Volume  ProducKon  

•  Value  priced  hardware  +  lots  of  manufacturers  =  Choice  

•  Constantly  reducing  hardware  size  

•  Sophis(cated  op(ons    

IP  Core  •  2G  is  IP  based  speeds  up  to  80Kbps.  CSD  s(ll  available  in  some  cases.  

• Networks  are  increasingly  data  focused.  Built  for  purpose.  

•  3G  is  IP  based  data  comms  at  speeds  up  to  40Mbps  

•  LTE  is  all  IP.  

The  Limits  of  Cellular  

•  Voice  

•  Immediacy  

•  Dedicated  bandwidth  

• Ongoing  costs  

•  In  plant  

Satellite  

•  Truly  Global  Coverage  

•  IP  or  message  based  

•  Smaller  Antennae  

•  Hardware  prices  dropping  

•  Air(me  fees  leveling  out  and  reasonable  

What's  in  it  for  me?    

• Ongoing  income  -­‐  new  revenue  stream  

•  Pain  relief    

•  Expansion  of  services  offering    

No  Conflict  

•  Horses  for  courses  

•  2  way  works  and  works  well  where  it  is  suited.  Cellular  is  the  same.  

•  Cellular  is  not  a  threat  to  your  core  business  it  is  an  extension  to  it.  

•  It's  about  data  Comms,  not  voice.
