6 Cellular versus Wi-Fi (Public and Private) Domestic Cellular data has lost the battle with residential Wi-Fi Mobidia data indicates that Private Wi-Fi carrying over 4-times cellular domestic traffic Cellular roaming has lost the battle with Public Wi-Fi Mobidia data indicates that Public Wi-Fi carrying between 2- and 5-times cellular roaming traffic Domestic Cellular data is being challenged by Public Wi-Fi Mobidia data indicates that Public Wi-Fi carrying around 30% of all domestic cellular traffic Cisco Confidential 6

7 But surely Wi-Fi is all about best effort data what about voice? Pay monthly MOUs have fallen by nearly 20% in 5 years (in the UK) Why optimize architecture the future networks to support the past business model? Voice migrating to OTT - Skype app is among the top 10 downloads of all time for Windows Phone, ios and Android. In July 2013, Skype confirmed that its app had been downloaded over 100 million times by Android devices alone. Cisco Confidential 7

8 Integrate this (into your mission statement) 1. Wi-Fi already carrying the bulk of smartphone data 2. IEEE ac already delivering speeds in excess of LTE-Advanced 3. Carrier neutrality enables Wi-Fi to be supported by venue-centric value chains 4. Wi-Fi Calling and imessenger demonstrate how the most valuable cellular bytes can now be transported over Wi-Fi networks 5. Carrier Wi-Fi networks have already leapfrogged LTE in terms of dimensioning average per user sustained busy hour rates approaching 100 kbps in certain deployments 6. Overly complex cellular architecture is no longer needed in a good enough world Cisco Confidential 8

9 Your Relationship with WiFi Phase 1: Wi-Fi as the POOR relation Phase 2: Wi-Fi as the GOOD neighbor Phase 3: Wi-Fi as your BEST friend 1. Wi-Fi untrusted and unmanaged 2. OTT IPSec the only way to access carrier services 3. Separate parallel networks to deal with Wi-Fi 1. Wi-Fi trusted but still viewed as being deficient compared with LTE 2. LTE-LAA arguments include focus on guarantees (Coverage/ Capacity/QoS), policy/ management, service continuity 1. Wi-Fi delivering end-toend QoE for rich media support 2. Wi-Fi delivering scale beyond LTE 3. Wi-Fi delivering best in class visibility, for our customers and our customers customer Cisco Confidential 9
