Inter-working of these carrier grade networks is likely to be based on dedicated NGN interconnect arrangements which would, themselves, be based on evolving international standards."

However, it too cautioned CA against straying from the path of international standards. "We are trying hard to avoid the development of UK-specific standards in this area, since the UK is simply too small a market for this to be a sensible way forward." CA is well aware that, with a population only one third that of the UK, Australia can even less afford to stray too far from the path of international standards. And the issues it is dealing with have importance that extends well beyond VoIP. As ACMA said in its response to th discussion paper: "VoIP is considered as the first of a suite of next generation network multimedia services. It is preferred that QoS approaches be developed so that they may be applied to other NGN services, for example real-time interactive video calls." |
