Motorola Expands VoIP Portfolio Amid Predicted Growth
Motorola Solutions Expands VoIP Portfolio Amid Predicted Growth Of The Industry
Motorola Solutions, an American data communications company, released new sets of products last week including new push-to-talk (PTT) features for wireless carriers, public safety, and commercial companies. It also recently purchased Avtec, a VoIP dispatch provider, as its second recent acquisition.
VoIP INDUSTRY IN STEADY GROWTH
The expansion of Motorola solutions takes the predicted growth of the VoIP service industry one step closer to reality. For the past 20 years, VoIP has become an integral part of the lives of millions of people around the world, offering a plethora of innovation and options, as well as simplifying many communication processes while improving consumer interaction.
The usage of VoIP as a service has snowballed – between 1998 and 2002, VoIP carried only 1-3% of all voice calls worldwide, but in 2005, VoIP was responsible for more than 200 billion call minutes. The technology remains one of the fastest growing innovation of the late 20th century and has since grown steadily.
Various telecommunication experts have predicted the eventual death of the traditional landline phone system. In the US alone, more than 90 percent of households had operational landline phones in 2004, and today that number has decreased to less than half the amount. Furthermore, studies have shown that three out of four adults were living in a wireless-only household in 2018.
For businesses, companies that use traditional fix-line voice systems are only a minority when compared to those who have already adopted IP-based voice systems. Enterprise-level features offered by VoIP systems will satisfy business requirements with innovative and cost-efficient options, as well as, any necessary hardware and software support, coupled with prompt updates.
The dawning of the 5G Networks gives a lot of opportunities for the VoIP industry to grow even more. As VoIP technology is heavily dependent on internet quality, its services are expected to improve with the development of fifth-generation (5G) exponentially wide-area wireless networks, allowing faster communication speeds and response rate. The new system can potentially eliminate problems such as call jitter and packet loss.
