INTERNATIONAL BUREAU REPORT 2005 Section 43.82 Circuit Status Data January 2007 Cathy Hsu Policy Division 1 2005 Section 43.82 Circuit Status Data Introduction This report contains information on U.S.-international facilities-based common carriers’ circuits as of year-end 2005 that was submitted to the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) by U.S. common carriers pursuant to section 43.82 of the Commission’s rules. 1 In addition to the 2005 data, for comparison purposes, this report includes data from previous reports covering 2002 through 2004. Section 43.82 of the Commission’s rules directs U.S.-international facilities-based common carriers to file an international circuit status report by March 31 each year for circuits used to provide international services as of December 31 of the preceding year. The detailed filing requirements are set forth in the Manual for Filing Section 43.82 Circuit Status Data, which is available on the Commission’s Web site at http://www.fcc.gov/ib/pd/pf/csmanual.html. This report presents the Commission staff review and analysis of the information provided to the Commission by the carriers. 2 The aggregated information in this report summarizes for public use information that the Commission collects for regulatory purposes. This information also serves as a database for determining and monitoring the payments that the Commission is required to collect (i.e., annual regulatory fees on active 64 Kbps-equivalent international circuits). Reporting Requirements All U.S.-international facilities-based common carriers are required to file circuit status information, reflecting both activated (in-service) and idle (available but not in-service) capacity. Although units of circuit capacity have increased to E-1 3 and STM-1 4 levels, all services are reported in 64 Kbps- equivalent circuits, the minimum measurable unit. This is done to accommodate those carriers that have low traffic volume and therefore cannot report by large capacity units, with respect to any particular country. The Commission’s manual on filing circuit status reports defines international facilities-based circuits as “international circuits in which a carrier has an ownership interest that includes outright ownership, indefeasible right of use (IRU) interests, or leasehold interest in capacity in an international facility, regardless of whether the underlying facility is a common or non-common carrier submarine cable or an INTELSAT or other satellite system.” This definition is consistent with the definition of “international 1 47 C.F.R. § 43.82. 2 Commission staff reviews the carriers’ submissions for accuracy and completion. In some circumstances, carriers filed revised data based on requests for clarification from the staff. 3 1 E-1 = 30 64 Kbps circuits. 4 1 STM-1 = 1,890 64 Kbps circuits. 2 facilities-based carrier” contained in section 63.09(a) of the Commission’s rules. 5 This report includes data on circuits from U.S. domestic points to foreign points as well as to offshore U.S. points. United States and foreign points are identified in the Wireline Competition Bureau Industry Analysis and Technology Division report titled International Points Used for FCC Reporting Purposes (International Points Report), released April 1, 1994. 6 U.S. domestic points are the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Foreign points include foreign destinations as well as ships operating in international waters. Offshore U.S. points include U.S. territories such as American Samoa, Guam, Baker Island, Howland Island, Jarvis Island, Johnston Atoll, Kingman Reef, Midway Atoll, Navassa Island, the Northern Mariana Islands, Palmyra Atoll, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Wake Island. The International Points Report uses the following regional codes: Region Code Western Europe 1 Africa 2 Middle East 3 Caribbean 4 North and Central America 5 South America 6 Asia 7 Oceania 8 Eastern Europe 9 International Water Area 10 The services covered by this report include International Message Telephone Service (IMTS) (switched voice), International Private Line Service (IPLS) (including voice and data) and Miscellaneous or Other International Services (including data services and video services, other than private line service). Data Presentation The aggregated data listed in this report reflects all of the submitted information, including information from carriers who asked for confidential treatment. 5 47 C.F.R. § 63.09 (a). 6 The International Points Used for FCC Reporting Purposes is available on the FCC website at http://www.fcc.gov/wcb/latd/intl.html. 3 Table 1 lists the 95 carriers that filed circuit status reports, eight more than in 2004. Of these, 83 carriers filed and reported active or idle capacity in 2005. The other 12 carriers did not report any active or idle capacity in 2005. Tables 2 through 5 present data from 2002 through 2005 7 for different categories of transmission facilities: Table 2 (data on undersea cable circuits); Table 3 (data on satellite circuits); Table 4 (data on terrestrial circuits); 8 and Table 5 (data on combined transmission circuits). All tables include information organized by service type for 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005 data. As Table 2 shows, undersea cable circuits accounted for 84 percent of the overall active transmission capacity in 2005. Table 3 shows that international satellite circuits continued to decrease and only accounted for 0.3 percent of overall transmission capacity. Table 4 demonstrates that terrestrial links accounted for 15 percent of active circuit capacity in 2005. Table 5 combines all data on three transmission media: IMTS, Private Lines, and Other International Services. The table also shows the percentage of circuits by service type for each region, from 2002 to 2005. For 2005, IMTS circuits accounted for 11 percent of the total active capacity. The combined growth rate for Private Line and “Other” (data) services was 61 percent in 2005, a large increase from the 4 percent growth rate seen in 2004. As shown in Table 6, the top 30 destinations accounted for almost 97 percent of the total U.S.-activated circuits at year-end 2005, with the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Japan, and Mexico as the top five destinations. Costa Rica and Ireland are among the top 30 destinations in 2005, replacing the Czech Republic and New Zealand. In 2005, most of the top 30 destination countries reported capacity use for IMTS that was significantly lower than for private lines and other data services. However, three top 30 destinations – Italy, Spain, and Sweden – reported larger use of capacity for IMTS than for private lines and other data services. The percentage of total services by IMTS and Non-IMTS services are listed in Table 6. Supplementary Data Table 7 lists all operational trans-oceanic fiber optic cables, both common carrier and non-common carrier cables, in 64 Kbps units from 1995 to 2007, as derived from cable landing license applications and updated capacity information from cable operators. 9 In 2005, the combined cable capacity 7 Although this report excludes 1995-2001 data, that information is available in our previous reports, which are available on the FCC website at http://www.fcc.gov/ib/pd/pf/csmanual.html. 8 Terrestrial circuits include circuits carried both by microwave facilities and by terrestrial cables. Terrestrial circuits do not include circuits carried by undersea cables. 9 Table 7, page 35-36. In 2006, we conducted a survey of all cable operators regarding their existing cable capacity. According to cable operators, almost all of the private cables have been upgraded in the past 5 years. This survey revealed that the following cables have a much higher capacity than stated in our previous reports: Level 3, AC-2, FLAG Atlantic-1, Hibernia Atlantic, Apollo Cable in the Atlantic region; AmericCan-1, MAC, PAC, GlobeNet, SAC, and ARCOS-1 in the Americas region; PC-1 and TGN- Pacific in the Pacific region. Table 7, therefore, reflects all the changes that have occurred in the past 5 years. 4 (activated and idle circuits) reported by U.S. carriers for the trans-Atlantic region was 5,785,370 64 Kbps circuits (Regions 1, 2, 3 and 9), a 69 percent increase from the 3,414,381 circuits reported in 2004. Those accounted for 11.7 percent of the total available cable capacity, an increase from 9.3 percent in 2004. 10 In the Americas region (regions 4, 5 and 6), the activated and idle cable capacity accounted for 24.4 percent of the total available cable capacity, an increase from 3.4 percent in 2004. 11 In the trans- Pacific region, the reported activated and idle cable capacity accounted for 12.2 percent of the total available cable capacity, a slight increase from 11.8 percent in 2004. The reported activated circuits as a percentage of total available circuits for the three regions are also included in Table 7. Overall, the total reported activated circuits accounted for 6.7 percent of total available capacity worldwide. As indicated in our previous reports, cable capacity reported pursuant to Section 43.82 (activated and idle circuits) likely understates the actual amount of capacity that is in use. 12 This year’s data shows a pattern that is similar to previous years: the overall reported cable capacity accounted for 10.7 percent of the total available cable capacity (common carrier and non-common carrier cables). The satellite data also likely understates the actual amount of capacity in use because many private satellite operators market their capacity directly to end-users and thus are not subject to our reporting requirements. 13 We have included updated cable capacity information for the years 2006 to 2007. Because we have obtained the cable capacity information directly from the cable owners this year, our estimates of total available capacity for the years 2006 to 2007 should be more representative of the actual cable capacity in the market. 10 Due to the updated cable capacity, we have restated all previous years’ cable reported percentage. 11 BCE Nexxia, Inc. filed its first report in 2005. Their filing resulted in a big increase in the reported capacity in Americas region. 12 In our previous reports we identified three reasons for the discrepancy between reported capacity (activated plus idle circuits) and available capacity. First, foreign carriers hold significant amounts of the U.S. international cable capacity and are not required to report their capacity under section 43.82 unless they use their capacity for the provision of U.S. international service. Second, for any new cable system, a substantial amount of capacity that is actually activated or idle may be under-reported, particularly in the year in which many new cables come on-line or old cables have been upgraded. Third, there are a number of non-common carrier cables, and much of the capacity on those cables is sold to end-users, including Internet Service providers (ISPs), foreign carriers, and foreign ISPs. Under those circumstances, neither cable owners nor cable users are required to report capacities. 13 U.S. satellite available capacity is calculated differently than available total U.S. cable capacity. Due to the flexible nature of satellite coverage, each satellite can cover various countries and can be available to all those countries within its footprint. Therefore, it is difficult to calculate the fixed amount of capacity that can be allocated to any given country for any specific time frame. On the other hand, the location of fiber optic cables is fixed because they are deployed only to their planned cable stations, making it possible to calculate the total available cable capacity on a particular route for any given time frame.
