Introduction
Page 3
Latin America is often relegated, from the remote view of
equipment providers, global service providers, to a second
or third place... Its needs, life, internal challenges and
geography are not taken into account when defining generic
solutions or designing future technologies.
How can we change that?

Typical deployed applications in Latin America are:
 Migration / Optimization of existing Services and/or
Infrastructure
 Broadband IP Telephony (residential)
 Voice over IP for Corporate Market
 Enhanced communication/collaboration
 Managed Communication Services
 Contact Centers

Our experience in Latin America:

Broadband IP Telephony (definition): It is a communication
service between IP based users, that includes voice, video,
data and multimmedia services.
 Deployments: limited scale as a defense mechanism against CLECs?
 Future: advent of Wimax, 3Play, could it bring more scale?

VoIP for Corporate markets: incluing all communicaton
solutions given by Service Providers to Enterprises
 Initial deployments were focused on site integration and cost
reduction
 More integrated / added value services are started to be considered
recently

Most common problems encountered are:
 Investment levels / IRR
 Remote communities (large areas w/ low population)

 Interconnection problems
 Internal (within operators own network)
 External (IP interconnection within two or more operators)
 Interoperability problems
 Cost of terminals
 Codec costs (specially for softphones - royalties costs)

Most common problems encountered are (2):
 Need to tailor solution for national variants
 Regulation uncertainties for new services/technologies
 No voice in standardization or industry bodies
 Solution coverage:
 Generally 95% of requirements are easily covered, but the
remaining 5% are complex, needing 3rd parties or heavy
integration

Regulatory needs
Page 10
Regulatory needs vary from country to country, however the
following main questions are seen in several of them:
 IP interconnection:
 regulation is non-existing/missing
 routing / billing shall also be defined altogether
 Can incumbent operators offer multimedia services? What about 3Play?
 Can CLECs give VoBB over another provider’s broadband access?
 Can the access’ owner deny it?
 If not, how profit is shared?
 Numbering/addressing related:
 Fixed-Mobile convergence (e.g. single number, interconnection fee, etc)
 VoIP based numbering
 National specificity's (Call Collect, CAS R2, mandatory supplementary
services). Do they need to be supported in a TISPAN network?
 Old regulations: f.e. what happens when lifeline is required (vs VoWiMax)?

TISPAN Benefits
Page 11
How can Latin America countries benefit by TISPAN?
 Clear standard definition




Reducing RFx time preparation (know specs) and answering
Reducing Time to Market (already known solutions)
Simplifying usage of 3rd parties to cover 100% of the requirements
Investment stability (re-usage guaranteed)

Std
Specs
 Interconnection:
 Clearly defined procedures for roaming, interconnection and billing
 Protocols: SIP-I, others (protocols and procedures)
 Compliant products are expected to interwork easily
 Infrastructure costs
 Having vendors interwork easily / less customization needed
 reducing integration costs
 Reduction of IT costs

TISPAN Benefits (2)
Page 12
How can Latin America countries benefit by TISPAN?
 Terminals related:
 Standardization reduces costs
 Provisioning/Security reduces deployment costs
 Numbering/addressing related:
 VoIP based numbering: Tel URI / SIP URI domains
 Local ENUM, National ENUM, Global ENUM
 Portability/Roaming easily addressed
 Network preparation
 Securities/Vulnerabilities
 Common Defense
 End to End QoS

TISPAN: Latin America specific needs
Page 13
The following points are specific common needs among
several Latin America operators (not addressed yet):
 PBX (DID) or IP-PBX connection to a TISPAN NGN base network
core
 IP Contact Center Application: standardization
 Codecs usage: definition/inclusion of royalty free codecs in IM-MG

Conclusions and Recommendations
Page 14
Conclusions/ Recommendations
 TISPAN can greatly help Latin American operators to simplify its
future network evolution and reduce integration costs
 Other important requirements like convergence,
numbering/addressing, billing and ip-interconnection are covered
 It is highly recommended to align base local regulations on the
international bodies such as TISPAN, ensuring its industry support
and further reducing the implementation efforts
 It is encouraged that local Latin America operators take a more active
role within the TISPAN working, to ensure that local requirements are
treated in the base standards
