• The Next Generation Network concept is a model of network and service provisioning which objective is to provide horizontal services (converged services) to the user efficiently. The Next Generation Network concept is key to the Modern Telecommunication Operator because of it represents an efficient network architecture that allow the Operator to efficiently manage their network and services. While the architecture of Next Generation Network has been deeply study theoretically, and in many countries, it has been deployed in some sense, in this paper we present an analysis of deployment of Next Generation Network in Ecuador. The interest of this study is to show the grade of practical deployment of this concept in countries like Ecuador, where the economic power of Telecommunication Operators could limit that deployment. We conclude this analysis with possible evolution of this analysis and some conclusion and recommendations.
