Europe - VoIP Market - Overview & Statistics

Europe has an advanced telecommunications network developed by the incumbents, while rival networks constructed since the 1980s have greatly expanded competition and innovation in ISDN, mobile telephony, data, cable TV and fibre networks. New technologies, such as wireless networks, power line communications, 3G mobile networks and satellite broadband are complemented by developments in Next Generation Networks (NGN) which provide a range of IP services such as Video-on-Demand (VoD), VoIP, and broadband TV. This report presents statistics and analysis on VoIP in Europe in 2006, noting the regulatory environment and the range of services offered. It also assesses scenarios for further development to the end of the decade.
