FAANGS for the Memories
Cable Congress 2018 FAANGS for the memories 28 March 2018 Cable Congress Event Summary Hardly a presentation went by at the annual meeting of the European Cable Industry A collection of without mention of the FAANGS (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Google). findings from These internet titans were cited as the reason behind cable’s need to consolidate further, Cable Europe’s to embrace mobile more energetically, to shift video transmission to IP, to invest in ever higher speed and capacity, to embed data, machine learning and artificial intelligence in annual Congress, business models and to become an aggregation hub for internet delivered video content. March 6-7 2018 There were also numerous calls for the FAANGS to be blunted by more active oversight in Dublin and regulation. If the time to mend the roof is when it is sunny, then cable is picking the right time to examine its strategy and positioning. European cable growth remains positive, video erosion is slowing and is very minor compared to the high-ARPU US market. The reduced cost to extend network means that the pace of new cable build is growing, and cable businesses are attracting high valuations in the accelerating M&A market. The pace of innovation remains high, and the Congress showcased this, with developments in the traditional cable technologies as well as a recognition that the future would lie in a world of IP video and data-led artificial intelligence processes. Marketing and products are not immune from evolution either – the days when bundling and triple play were the holy grail are over, and there is a recognition that personalisation, ease of use and content aggregation are needed to retain customers whose behaviour and desires are adapting to a digital world. -

The Fixed/Mobile Broadband Battle: Is It Time for “Smart Broadband”?
Point of View The Fixed/Mobile Broadband Battle: Is It Time for “Smart Broadband”? Author Dave Parsons Key Contributors: Bill Gerhardt Richard Medcalf Stuart Taylor Andrew Toouli November 2009 Cisco Internet Business Solutions Group (IBSG) Cisco IBSG © 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Point of View The Fixed/Mobile Broadband Battle: Is It Time for “Smart Broadband”? Executive Summary Mobile broadband has emerged as a new phenomenon that is poised to take signifi- cant market share from fixed broadband. The key question all broadband operators (fixed, mobile, and integrated) are asking is: How do I deal with this new development? Offering a compelling broadband customer experience helps retain/maximize aver- age revenue per user (ARPU) from existing customers, while increasing the chance of attracting new ones. The Cisco® Internet Business Solutions Group (IBSG) believes this experience should be about making it easy for end customers to access fixed or mobile broadband, wherever they are, with whatever devices and applications they are using. Cisco IBSG calls this approach “smart broadband”—taking advantage of different broadband connection modes to deliver a more valuable and compelling, application- aware broadband service to users. Cisco IBSG is already starting to see deployment of some embryonic smart broadband services, but we feel that more investment is needed to fully realize the benefits. While integrated operators are perhaps in the best position to exploit a smart broadband service, we believe that any operator embracing smart broadband will deliver greater value to customers and distance itself from the competition. Introduction Fixed broadband, including digital subscriber line (DSL) and cable, has been a phenom- enal growth story around the globe over the past five years. -
