Switch Network IP Network

US IP traffic is 157 exabytes and will grow

3x in 5 years

If America’s goal is to have a world-leading, competitive communications

market that is responsive to consumer & business needs, the

solution is to migrate to IP networks

vs.

Traditional switched traffic amounts to less than 1%

(1 Exabyte) of the amount of traffic that is transmitted

over IP

Since 2006, ~ $81B was spent on legacy networks

This is the future

Since early 2009, nearly $250 billion in private capital has been invested in U.S. wired and wireless broadband networks. Greater than Oil/Gas and 4x the US auto

industry
