Business models for advanced and sustainable networks must deliver any service to any consumer for any purpose at any time. Therefore, a communications network is more than the technology, the vendors or the hardware. It is about delivering desirable and mutually beneficial services in cost effective means. This new systems approach addresses costs, savings and efficiency gained by having the services available. Some of the service categories that your network must deliver are as follows: 1. Municipal & Government 2. Healthcare 3. Education 4. Enterprise & Commercial 5. Personal and Residential. We will explore how specific services bring change to the equation of cost effective deployments and how private/public partnerships can assist in sustainability.
