Draft Of First-Ever Infrastructure Sharing Framework Finalized
MOITT will wait for 15 days for any feedback. After that, the draft will be sent to the federal cabinet for approval with desired changes. The point worth mentioning here is that Telecom infrastructure sharing is a wide range term that usually refers to sharing of telecom network components and associated non-electronic and physical infrastructure. Moreover, this concept also promotes:
resource optimization by better utilization of assets avoiding duplication of network infrastructure saving time & costs accelerating service rollouts
The point notable here is that telecom network deployment involves heavy CAPEX and OPEX liabilities for operators and that’s why it is considered a major deterrent for network expansions. Moreover, there are some challenges to licensed operators that need to be addressed. It includes delays in rolling out new network infrastructure, which is attributed to attaining Right of Way (RoW), Operational cost, maintenance cost & Average Revenue Per User (ARPU).
