Research and Markets: International IPX Market Revenue Analysis and Forecasts 2011-2015 - International IPX Revenue to Grow By 55.6% over the Next 4 Years

Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/18970d2f/international_ipx) has announced the addition of the "International IPX Market Revenue Analysis and Forecasts 2011-2015" report to their offering.

As a result of the exponential growth of mobile data services anticipated over the next 5 years, a majority of the IPX revenue increase is expected to come from IPX data services.

IPX is increasingly popular with Wholesale operators as it opens up opportunities for voice carriers to move away from the minutes-based model and towards alternative methods of charging. Carriers with IPX hubs will have the opportunity to provide and charge for services such as routing transparency, low latency and number portability, or roll this int a subscription fee for using its IPX platform. At this point in time however, no single player is able to provide complete global IPX coverage using its own network. Even the largest IPX players such as TATA, BICS, BT (News - Alert), iBasis/KPN and DT ICSS must interconnect with others.

It is likely that in the medium term, most IPX providers will ultimately deliver IPX platforms that are interconnected. However, this will take considerable time and in the interim, there will be more bilateral couplings such as the TI Sparkle/iBasis (News - Alert) relationship.

The IPX market is populated by an increasing number of players, with the key players in the IPX market outlined below:

- Aicent Sybase (News - Alert)

- BICS Syniverse

- BT Tata Communications

- Citic Telecom

- Telecom Italia Sparkle

- DT ICS TNZI

- iBasis (KPN (News - Alert))

- Telefonica Wholesale

- Orange Wholesale

- Services Telekom Austria

- Reach (Telstra)

- Telenor (News - Alert)

- TeliaSonera

IPX data services are expected to have generated 39.2% of the total International IPX revenue in 2011 with the remaining 60.8% coming from IPX voice services' HOT TELECOM president Isabelle Paradis said. As a result of the exponential growth of mobile data services anticipated over the next 5 years, a majority of the IPX revenue increase is expected to come from IPX data services.
