  1. Connectivity in the Digital Age Bob Frankston http://www.Frankston.com PSTN InfrastructureParadigms shifted

  2. Bits, The New Infrastructure • Must address the cause not the symptoms • Bits decouple services from the transport • Bits are an alphabet with no value in themselves • Value is External  New funding model • Infrastructure is a proven model • Roads (The road system is an emergent property) • Home Infrastructure  Community Infrastructure

  3. We Contribute Infrastructure

  4. From Tenants to Owners With Home After 1995 Broadband, Cellular, PSTN • No Fees, Ownership • Zero marginal cost • Can use bits any way • Peripherals and innovation • Extend to community • Local Infrastructure • Monthly Fee per Device • Never pay off finance fee • Dictate meaning of bits • Apps • Unbilled bits are dead bits

  5. Transition Happens • Container Shipping • Goods to packets. • Private pikes to public roads • Business community to community funding • Advertising • Supports services that aren’t profit centers • USPS stamps on UPS boxes till 1970’s

  6. Stuck in 19th century? • Single distribution system for electricity. • Bits aren’t consumables with intrinsic value. • Distribution system, not sharing. % as “bits” • How is this model sustainable in a real market? • No wonder DSL is in violation of Moore’s law!

  7. The network needn’t know which passengers are part of a team.

  8. Using Infrastructure • Edge-to-Edge forced the issue • VoIP without QoS • Decoupling markets  Hypergrowth • Use of consumer infrastructure (home) • AccessConnectivity! • Local is exciting and 100% “Internet” • One “Internet” inside & outside

  9. Doing Our Own Infrastructure • Marked-based native funding model • Extends home and campus infrastructure • Commons like roads and sidewalks • Reduced costs by avoiding limits of pipes • Stable funding model with aligned incentives • Transformational, zero marginal cost: • Creates opportunity • Medical services, public safety, cost savings

  10. Making a Fresh Start • Regulation to Markets • Native funding for each service • 9-1-1  direct connectivity • Voice is an app • Trust is social not a service • Services are local and global

  11. Scrap Pile • The following slides are a scrap pile that may be mined in the future

  12. Transition • The PSTN retirement is a symptom • Shifting the business model • Analog: Service providers own infrastructure • Digital: Bits enable a common infrastructure • Stable market-based model • Infrastructure own locally and regionally • Services are diverse and funded natively • From Regulation to Markets

  13. Overview 00110101101 $€ • From burden of the “PSTN” to Connectivity • Services using the network not in the network • No network services  new funding model for net • Layers to Decoupling (bits, relationships) • Infrastructure is geographically local • Just exchange bits, services are external • Funded like roads • Needs very little regulation • Infrastructure is an enabler.

  14. After the PSTN • PSTN: Provides burdened paying for ”wires” • Connectivity decouples: • How we get services • How we pay for the “wires” • Use native business models • Neighbors work together for infrastructure • Any provider can provide services • 9-1-1 et al without legacy of the 1950’s

  15. Conclusion • New paradigms, not virtual PSTN • Generativity of BOYI (Infrastructure) • Regulation  Markets • Local ownership of infrastructure • Global availability of services • Transitions • Private Pikes to Public Roads • Opportunities rather than promises

  16. The Concept of the PSTN • Telegram as design point • Intelligence in Network SS7 • Services are provided • Providers cover costs • Sell services/messages • Path is a Pipe • (Naïve) Trust as a service

  17. Understanding bits • The alphabet for information • The universal solvent • Are not consumed

  18. Who will Deploy • Local Implications

  19. Bits, not “Internet” • Used as basic infrastructure • Meta Devices • Policies for lights • Safety Monitoring and Compliance • Local video • Not about Access • Peer connectivity • Not tied to a path

  20. It’s about Business • Classic Telecom • Value is in the network • Funded by selling service • Digital World • Value is external • Value created doesn’t fund the network • Divestiture

  21. From Regulation to Markets • Markets can now provide “telephony” • Decoupling vs. lock-step engineering • Escape QoS et al • Playing out divestiture and bits from the 70’s • From “Trust Ma Bell” to “Trust is Social” • Enabling Hypergrowth

  22. Bits Change the Rules • No “wired” vs. “wireless” • Not Consumed • Inverse relationship between value and quantity • Services decoupled from bit-exchanging • Skype • Over-the-Top • Cellular over IP • Path independent • Tethering • Wi-Fi offloading

  23. Decouples Business Models • Services • Charge for value • Level playing field • Over all networks, not just one’s own • Physical infrastructure • Funding by taxing externalities • Removes cost/complexity of billing/settlement • “Broadband” all same so why till?

  24. Why the PSTN? • Funding model, provider model • Phone numbers • Universal Service • Emergency Services (911) • Municipal info (311) • Authentication and Caller-ID • Billing • QoS

  25. Dynamic Infrastructure • Public safety • if your in #osloand are ok, try not to use your phone. #bombeoslo#osloexpl#utøya

  26. (Virtual) PSTN and More • SIP Trunking? • Cellular of IP • Gateways into home • Starting at the edge • Tunneling • Car software upgrade

  27. Bugaboos • Networks • Providers • Lesson of search DNS  Single Bar • Trust and Zombies Ahead • No Single Hop • Funding like putting stamps on UPS boxes • DSL vs. Line cards • SS7 • Congestion and Limits

  28. Infrastructure Funding • Avoids needing elements to be profit center • Like advertising liberates Google • Aligned Incentives vs. Regulation • Good Stuff Cheap

  29. Free “Wi-Fi” • Public use • Emergency use • Bits are bits

  30. Crises • Modems in the 90’s • Funding Broadband Deployment • Wi-Fi offload for Cellular • Global Crossing failure

  31. Networking Start at Home • Connecting devices in the home & campus • DLNA • Light Switches • Intranets [sic] • Municipal services • Once we have connectivity • Use for “offload”

  32. Transition • Incremental from the edge • Home networks • Community: MDU, Development, Cities, Regions • Interconnect models • Aggregate purchasing • Tunneling and Virtual Communities

  33. Business in Transition • Decoupling from Cable • NBCU • TWG • Telecom • New Services • BHR problem

  34. Divestiture • Because of digital • Structural Separation • Wholesale/Retail – same model for different businesses. • Spectrum Auctions on Steroids
