New Report Provides an Overview of Jamaica's Telecom Sector Accompanied by Relevant Statistics, and Brief Profiles of the Main Operators
DUBLIN, Ireland --(Business Wire)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c86689) has announced the addition of Jamaica - Telecoms Market Overview & Statistics to their offering.
Jamaica's telecom infrastructure is relatively advanced by Caribbean standards and boasts one of the highest mobile penetration rates in the region. In contrast, Jamaican fixed-line teledensity, currently experiencing a downward trend, is one of the lowest in the Caribbean. Despite liberalisation and the award of numerous licences, Cable & Wireless Jamaica (C&WJ) continues to dominate fixed-lines in an environment in which Local Loop Unbundling still remains on the drawing board. Mobile telephony, on the other hand, has experienced a remarkable boom since the market was opened to competition, resulting in approximately six mobile phones for every fixed line in service. Although broadband household penetration is still relatively modest, it witnessed strong growth between 2004 and 2006. In addition, recent investments in wireless and cable broadband, together with the launch of two new submarine fibre-optic cables, are expected to put downward pressure on broadband access prices and to drive broadband growth during 2007 and 2008. This report provides an overview of the country's telecom sector accompanied by relevant statistics, and brief profiles of the main operators.
