PSTN may be a very secure, reliable system for telephony, and it has had limited success through the local loop, in providing a basis for broadband connection to the Internet. However there is only so much that a system based on physical copper wire connections can achieve. Some of the challenges which the future holds for the PSTN include:
- How to converge telecoms, multimedia and IP software.
- How to migrate to a better fee structure for all the related services.
- How to manage both data traffic and voice calls.
- How to operate a system which has virtually the same costing model for:
-
- local calls, international calls and data transmission.
