phone services are run on digital systems, and the mobile-cellular teledensity is about

90 phones per 100 persons. There are approximately 113,000 internet hosts in

Belarus in 2009 to meet the needs of approximately 3.107 million Internet users.

History of the telephone - Early commercial instruments

1 Around 1893, the country leading the world in telephones per 100 persons (teledensity) was Sweden with 0.55

in the whole country but 4 in Stockholm (10,000 out of a total of

27,658 subscribers)


History of the telephone - Early commercial instruments

1 In 1893, the U.S. was considerably behind Sweden, New Zealand,

Switzerland, and Norway in teledensity. The U.S. rose to world

leadership in teledensity with the rise of many independent telephone companies after the Bell patents

expired in 1893 and 1894.


History of the telephone - 20th century developments

1 By 1904 over three million phones in the U.S. were connected by manual

switchboard exchanges. By 1914, the U.S. was the world leader in telephone density and had more than twice the teledensity of Sweden, New Zealand, Switzerland, and Norway. The relative good performance of the U.S. occurred despite competing telephone networks

not interconnecting.

Telephone density

1 'Telephone density' or 'teledensity' is the number of telephone connections for every hundred individuals living within an area. It varies widely across the nations and also between urban and rural areas within a country. Telephone density has

significant correlation with the per capita GDP of the area. It is also used as an indicator of economic development of

the country or specific region.


Telephone density - Determining telephone density

1 Since this method caused disadvantage to some countries

where the fixed line network is well established, or others where the mobile network is still in its initial stage of development, effective

teledensity has been proposed by ITU as the sloution, which is defined as

either fixed line connections or mobile subscribers per hundred

inhabitants – whichever is higher.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledensity-toolkit.html

Telephone density - Teledensity and GDP

1 The correlation between teledensity and per capita GDP could be

represented by a straight line in a logarithmic graph. This relation was

first mentioned by A.G.W. Jipp. a German engineer, in his book

published in 1962. The graph is helpful to compare the telephone

infrastructure development of different countries or regions, on the

basis of teledensity.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-teledensity-toolkit.html
