Abstract

The teleport concept is defined, and types of teleports are described. The Washington International Teleport is discussed as an example. It is argued that major teleports should concentrate on three major areas of implementation and growth to create a successful gateway linking domestic and international networks; these areas are video networks, private networks, and international voice/data networks
