Mexico - Convergence, Broadband and Internet market Broadband, especially ADSL, is one of the fastest growing markets in Mexico. The shift from dialup to broadband became apparent in 2005, when dial-up accounts started to decrease, while broadband soared by around 122%. Mexican companies are eager to adopt new technologies and embrace the IT and digital media revolution. WiMAX made a first appearance in Mexico in December 2005, and Mexico's first triple play service, combining cable TV, Internet, and telephony, was launched in March 2005. Reforms to telecom convergence laws have sparked much controversy between the regulatory authorities, the incumbent Telmex, and cable TV operators. This report provides an overview of Mexico's Internet, broadband, and broadcasting market, accompanied by statistical data.

Mexico - Fixed-Line Market and Infrastructure - Overview and Statistics The fixed-line market in Mexico has enormous potential for growth. Overall teledensity stands at 19%, which is about average for Latin America, but there are huge disparities between urban and rural areas, ranging from 41% teledensity in the Federal District, to 5.6% in the poor, mainly Indian state of Chiapas. Despite liberalisation and growing competition, Telmex still dominates the fixed-line market. VoIP has gained huge popularity, especially with small and medium sized businesses. Several companies offer VoIP services, although providers have the same licensing requirements as other voice carriers, and many be shut down for operating illegally. This report provides brief profiles of the main fixed network operators, together with statistical data and an overview of the telecom infrastructure.
