domain-b.com: After wireless, broadband is expected to be the next big revolution to sweep India. The day isn’t far away when Indian consumers will have access to triple play broadband at their doorstep – whether home or office, says Sudhir Narang, senior VP, service provider and government, Cisco Systems, India & SAARC.
Globally, broadband remains hot. Estimates by Ovum put broadband connections at 140 million this year, while Yankee Group says that number could well pass 325 million by 2008. From India’s perspective, broadband is the ideal technology platform to connect a geographically diverse country and to deliver the promise of convergence, if India is to continue to develop and progress in today’s information-based global economy. The possibilities are immense and include distance learning, telemedicine, quality entertainment and more productive enterprises among others, all of which will drive economic growth further.
