Overview: Throughout its history, the telecommunications sector has seen new technologies evolve and offer better value propositions to the user, replacing older technologies on the way. The paper focuses on mesh networks, assessing the disruptive potential of the technology. Mesh networks are peer-to-peer communication networks that allow two user devices to communicate directly, instead of being routed through a central switch. It analyses what makes mesh networks disruptive and to what extent - exploring what impact this technology is likely to have on the incumbents, and how the incumbents can face up to the challenge.
