Mexico's telecom market is one of
the well-developed in Latin America, which offers a whole range of modern
telecommunication services, with high prices and fees. Mexico’s fixed-line
telecom sector retains the significant potential for growth, with a population
of over 123 million and a fixed-line teledensity of above 18%. Telecommunication
market includes radio, television, fixed & mobile telephones and the
internet.
Radio market has long been
concentrated 80 % of commercial stations are in the hands of only 13 group. In
addition, internet access is dominated by either telemax or local cable
competitors that are often televisa subsidiaries.
In Mexico, the development of
broadband services had a significant positive impact. This is of two types fixed
broadband and mobile broadband. Broadband represents the majority of
subscription. The fixed broadband market is served by a number of technology
platforms including ADSL, fibre-to-the-home (Fttx), WiMAX and leased line. WiMAX
makes up a significant proportion of total fixed broadband subscription. The
development of national fixed broadband network is based on fibre.
In Mexico major mobile network
operators in telecommunication are; telcel, movistar, AT&T and virgin
mobile. Telcel
is a Mexican wireless telecommunications company: its cellular network covered
more than 63% of the geographical area of Mexico, including all major cities,
and 90% of Mexico’s population. Telcel holds concessions to operate a wireless
network in all nine geographic regions in Mexico using both the 850 megahertz
and 1900 megahertz radio spectrum. Movistar offers 850/1900 MHz (2G), 850/900/1900/2100
MHz (3G), HSDPA (3.5G) and 1700/2600 MHz (4G) services in country. AT&T Inc. is an
American multinational telecommunications corporation, provides broadband
subscription television service. Virgin Mobile is a wireless
communications brand used by eight independent brand-licensees worldwide: it
offers GSM-1900 (GPRS, EDGE), 850/1900 MHz UMTS and HSPA+.
In Mexico, the Federal
telecommunication institute is a telecommunication regulated authority. This
authority is part of the Mexico's secretariat of communications and transport
(SCT). The SCT is divided into three subsecretariats: the subsecretariat of
infrastructure, the subsecretariat of communications and the subsecretariat of
transportation. This authority has some essential features such as a
constitutional autonomy, management of its own patrimony & budget, public
deliberations, exclusive powers in economic competition matters such as
broadcasting & telecommunication sectors and independence of resolutions
such as its own statue & general provisions etc.
Major initiative is the Red
Compartida, a wholesale shared mobile network, which aims at increasing digital
inclusion and connecting Mexico’s rural areas. The spectrum for this network comes
from the digital switchover: its goal is to extend coverage to 92.2% of the
Mexican population by 2024, particularly those in rural areas currently outside
broadband reach.
In 2018, AT&T and Movistar are
awarded spectrum in the 2.5 gigahertz band and in March 2018, a wholesale
mobile network made available for underserved areas, which aim at delivering
mobile voice and data to those areas. This network covers about a third of the
population, it is estimated that it will be extended to at least 92% by 2025. In
the upcoming years, the combination of a future national broadband network
along with 4G LTE services and a highly competitive market will spur the
telecoms sector in Mexico and it is estimated that revenues for the sector will
increase substantially.
