As U.S. Retail VoIP Grows Quickly, Wholesale VoIP Follows Suit According to In-Stat
January 25th, 2007 - Posted in VoIPThe U.S. market for VoIP advanced dramatically in 2006, adding 3.8 million VoIP households in 2006, reports In-Stat (http://www.in-stat.com). As a result, wholesale VoIP revenues are growing quickly, as MSOs, Skype, and a myriad of new entrants—most lacking network facilities—enter the market and drive demand for telephony features and applications, the high-tech market research firm says.
“As retail VoIP expands, wholesale VoIP will accelerate quickly,†says Bryan Van Dussen, In-Stat analyst. “The largest segment remains international VoIP, but we expect the market for local services to surge from 12% of all revenues to 27% by 2010.â€

* Consumer VoIP adoption will drive wholesale VoIP revenues to $3.8 billion by 2010 from $1.1 billion in 2006.
