"IP continues to be a partial voice solution for most businesses with VoIP, particularly among larger businesses," said David Lemelin, In-Stat analyst. "Therefore, there is significant room for growth even among businesses that have already adopted it."
Recent research by In-Stat found the following:
- 32 percent of enterprise-size businesses say the economic situation has slowed their VoIP deployment plans
- Broadband IP telephony remains the most common carrier-based business VoIP solution with revenues exceeding $1.1 billion in 2008, compared to $857 million for hosted IP Centrex service within the U.S.
- Adoption varies significantly by size of business, with enterprise businesses preferring a partial deployment, while SOHO businesses are more likely to go IP-only
- 13 percent of U.S. businesses use both carrier-based and premises-based IP solutions. Digital visual interface (DVI) and high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI), are related, high-bandwidth, unidirectional, uncompressed digital interface standards.
