True Value of FMC?

Fixed Mobile Convergence is about allowing users to stay mobile, using multiple networks and not just GSM, in a seamless, ad hoc manner. And the trend is growing, estimated at over 100% compound annual growth rate over the next four years. Fixed mobile convergence is not new for the enterprise; however, what is unique is that this solution is compatible with virtually any PBX with IP/SIP connectivity. This means that service providers can now approach any large or mid-sized enterprise regardless of their existing equipment.[1] Fixed mobile convergence is a term that is used to describe the merging of the wired and wireless lines of any individual consumer. The goal of this service is to have both fixed and mobile services on one phone through a seamless switching of networks. Fixed mobile convergence is coming, and some will combine Wi-Fi and cellular with transparent hand-off of calls between the two environments, while others depend solely on cellular service.

FMC moves VoIP from a tethered anchor to a ubiquitous solution. FMC requires interoperability across all equipment, converged fixed-mobile core network, and innovative applications. End-users will demand access to a wide variety of different devices and applications within walled gardens, and the open Internet. FMC is an acronym, not a technology. In essence, the premise behind fixed mobile convergence is the ability to offer voice and data applications via a mobile device.

FMC will create a demand pull. The demand for fixed links may increase due to factors such as tele-congested families and increased numbers of people working from home; or decrease due to the unprecedented demand for mobility. FMC provides a simplified method of communication, but, nevertheless, increases the availability of resources and the productivity of end users. From the point of view of the end user, communication and content sharing is fast and seamless, with the advantage of a single, amalgamated bill from AT&T as the single service provider.

Will the Economy Slow Down Mobility Sales?

As a Mobility Consultant with AT&T I have seen first hand the scalling back of IT Budgets, but many companies are taking a new look at cutting costs with a mobility solution. It could be as simple as email access on a Blackberry or Signature Capture for Proof of Delivery application on a Tilt. The global financial slowdown may cause the cell phone market to grow at a slower rate than expected, according to forecasts from UBS and JPMorgan. However AT&T has continued to grow compared to Sprint losing 1 million customers last quarter.
