Cisco CEO: Service providers will continue to upgrade....

"Cisco CEO: Service providers will continue to upgrade and build out their networks for a decade"

Guess the Cisco CEO is today's recipient of the "No Duh!" award.

If the providers have a clue, they will NEVER stop upgrading their networks... If we are just talking about buildouts, they might get "done" in 10 years, but upgrades... Those never stop.

That's really the distinction that was being highlighted in the talk. No company would fund investment in infrastructure, at a loss, for years, only to face the prospect of having to rebuild that infrastructure shortly after they start making money off it. An infrastructure needs to reach the break-even point relatively early in its useful life, and then continue operating, with only maintenance applied to it, until it has provided a substantial return on its original investment.
