ArmInfo. Creation of a traffic exchange Center will relieve each
Internet-provider of the necessity to join all the rest individually,
vice president of WEB LLC Internet provider Kolya Hovhannisyan told
ArmInfo when commenting on the plans on creation of ARMIX internal
traffic exchange Center in Armenia.
According to him, creation of the Center will lead to transparency
of its information. "Funding of the Center may have several formats.
These may be regular membership fees by user-operators, as well as
donations at the initial stage. Further, it is envisaged to switch
to self-recoupment due to subscriber fees. Naturally, its activity
envisages no profit, as this is not a mere business but an auxiliary
structure", Hovhannisyan said. The decision made by Public Services
Regulatory Commission, which regulates the subscriber network joining
procedure, has become a normative base for functioning of the Center.
"This decision will hardly change something for final users, as the
networks of all the operators have been connected to each other
at the rate of 100 Mb/sec at least for over two years. However,
inter-operator connections need to be regulated just before creation
of the Center. Now, at a normative level, no operator can limit a
carrying capacity for another operator at the entrance in its network.
Such a decision-making was very urgent", K. Hovhannisyan said.
To recall, in early April, a number of Armenian telecommunication
operators signed an agreement on creation of ARMIX Center (Armenian
Internet Exchange). Arminco, GNC Alfa, Web, Ucom, Apaga Technologies,
CrossNet, ADC, Orange Armenia, Cornet-AM companies, as well as the
Union of Information Technologies Enterprises of Armenia (UITE) and
Internet-community of Armenia NGO took part in creation of the Center.
VivaCell-MTS also applied for joining the project. "Information about
the quality of free points of access will be displayed at the site
of the Center, and everyone will be able to see and estimate the real
occupancy of the operator network", K. Hovhannisyan said.
To note, the cost of the indicated Center is evaluated of about
$150,000, and the cost of annual service - about $2 - 3 mln drams.
