New York, NY, August 16, 2007 --(
PR.com)-- GigaSpeed International, Inc., a company specializing in future-proof next-generation digital communication technologies, today announced the availability of its 160-page Business White Paper, “Building Communications Infrastructures for the 21st Century: A Multibillion Dollar Opportunity for Investors, Vendors and Partners”. The White Paper was commissioned by Lachman & Malik Capital Partners, LLC, a private equity firm that specializes in theme investment funds.
The authors, who are members of GigaSpeed’s executive team, compared technological and business models for building and operating large-scale next-generation high-speed wireless and end-to-end optical fiber infrastructures. The authors also evaluated business fundamentals in terms of operations, sales and ROI.
Content
The white paper is based on GigaSpeed’s proprietary FiberBroadband Strategy, which is the culmination of seven years of research, development, planning and engineering by GigaSpeed and its predecessor company, LBDC International. The white paper includes original research, analyses and extensive market studies on existing and planned wireless projects including muni-WiFi, WiMAX and 700 MHz, and wireline projects such as Verizon’s FiOS project, which is based on Passive Optical Network (PON) technology.
As a guideline for the white paper, the authors used the “Business Case Scenario” developed by GigaSpeed International for its USA subsidiary. The scenario served as the basis of GigaSpeed’s business planning and modeling strategy for the last few years. This scenario entails 20 million FTTH/O connections at 1 Gigabit per second each and 18.5 million BWA subscribers at 10 to 100 megabits per second in ten to twenty metro markets.
Cost: $40 billion
The total costs of GigaSpeed’s FTTH/O and BWA projects are estimated at US $40 billion. However, GigaSpeed has devised a comprehensive strategy that minimizes the actual investment needed to build this expensive infrastructure. GigaSpeed will be able to build its $40 billion infrastructures for $1.5 billion, a fraction of the total cost.
Topics include:
Wireless
• Limitations and challenges concerning opportunities for 700 MHz and WiMAX
• Limitations and challenges for 3G wireless operators
• Limitations and challenges of upcoming cellular 4G technologies
WiFi
• Disastrous flaws in Muni-WiFi business models: unrealistic expectations and false hopes
• Business challenges facing WiFi projects planned or deployed by FON, Meraki, MetroFi, Earthlink and Google.
FTTH
• Limitations and challenges of xPON technologies
• Challenges and threats to Verizon’s FiOS project
• Global Market and USA market
Project details
• GigaSpeed’s competitive edge
• Business Development
• Cost breakdown of entire $40 billion project
• GigaSpeed’s $100 million BWA pilot project in Q108; proof of concept at 1 Mbps, 10 Mbps and 100 mbps per wireless user
The white paper is available to members of the press and bloggers upon request. The white paper will be available to the public from Friday, August 17th onward. Please send an email to Ms. Suni Koshy suni@lachman-malik.com with your request for a copy (Format: PDF, size: 3 MB)
