Expanding Broadband Helping in Network UAE
The UAE, a focal center of high broadband activities in the Middle East, is expected to see Internet subscribers growing at a CAGR of around 25% during 2008-2012.
NEW DELHI, INDIA, December 12, 2008 /Telecommunications PR News/ -- A new study from RNCOS, "Booming UAE Telecom Sector", has found UAE as one of the highest Internet-connected countries of the Middle East region. The country has now more than half of its population connected to the Internet and broadband services. Moreover, the expansion of Internet is quite uniform in the country as almost all facets of the society - individuals, schools, businesses and the government - use Internet widely.
Broadband subscription in the Middle East country is growing far faster than dial-up. In 2007, broadband represented around 42% of Internet subscriptions, while it was just over 24% in 2005. Increase in Internet subscriptions is attributed to the rising consumer need to get Internet connectivity with the consistently lowering of Internet subscription rates. This has raised the current Internet penetration figures in the UAE to 2.5 users per subscription, according to the Telecom Regulatory Authority (TRA).
To further foster the Internet penetration in the country, the federal government is encouraging the development of 'smart cities', another regional trend. As a result, Internet penetration in the UAE is projected to continue with its rapid growth in future as well. RNCOS research expects the volume of Internet subscribers to grow at a CAGR of approx 25% during 2008-2012. Broadband subscribers are projected to account for approx 65% of the Internet subscribers by 2012 end.
"Booming UAE Telecom Sector", apart from broadband, offers extensive research on other telecom segments also, such as fixed-line and mobile. It thoroughly analyzes the UAE telecommunication market, taking into consideration various factors that remain requisite for ensuring intended growth in the market. The report further evaluates the potential of various emerging telecom technologies, like 3G, WiMAX, Mobile TV and IPTV in the UAE.
As the telecom market remains duopoly of Etisalat and du, the report, keeping in mind the importance of these two players in the UAE telecom market, also offers rational analysis on both these operators. This includes in-depth research and extensive analysis on their business activities, recent developments and SWOT analysis in regard to the UAE telecom industry.
