The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) recently issued comments to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regarding the request by Verizon Wireless to discontinue some services as a result of Hurricane Sandy.
In its comments, TIA emphasizes the importance of the ongoing transition to an all IP-network, noting that Verizon’s request “raises in very concrete terms a central question regarding the IP-transition: How should regulators respond when legacy telecommunications equipment no longer functions?”
