5. Anatomy of a failure: picturephone revisited

Abstract

The picturephone service launched by American Telephone and Telegraph Co (AT&T) in the early 1970s was a market failure. A study was conducted to discover the reason for this failure. It was found that while customer response was favorable for the innovation, the public did not want to use it themselves. It was not a question of technology but of public perception of the product's usefulness to themselves. A similar situation existed for AT&T's videotex in which real consumers showed little interest in investing money on the equipment.

Abstract

Users of toll-free '800' telephone numbers will have more options and lower rates in the future, as the three largest interchange carriers compete for market share. The technical problems once associated with switching carriers have been solved. Sprint Corp and MCI Communications Corp were hoping that the 90-day 'Fresh Look' program mandated by the Federal Communications Commission would encourage AT and T users to switch carriers, but AT and T reports it retained 95% of its customers. As new features and services are provided, the '800' number market is bound to attract new customers., I remember the energy and anticipation that permeated the long distance industry 10 years ago. I was working as a sales representative for MCI in 1983, when Bill McGowan stopped [...]

Abstract

Financial institutions wishing to restore failed communications networks can benefit from the options offered by interexchange carriers and equipment vendors. AT&T's Automatic Protection Capability and Network Protection Capability protect against local access channel failures and interoffice channel failures, respectively. Dial backup units temporarily transfer data communication from a private to a public network. AT&T's Digital Access and Cross-connect System/Customer Controlled Reconfiguration is usually used to restore long-term power outages. T1 multiplexers can instantly restore high-capacity facilities. Financial institutions need to use several different restoration techniques to meet their communications needs.
