Abstract
Abstract
This article examines the concept of neutral networks as open-access, wholesale-only telecommunications infrastructure models, based exclusively on the provided academic references. Drawing on technical and economic literature, the study analyzes how structural separation between infrastructure ownership and retail service provision may reduce physical network duplication, intensify service-layer competition, and shape investment incentives. The analysis compares market trajectories in the United States and Brazil, highlighting how the adoption of neutral network models depends on market structure, platform rivalry, ISP fragmentation, and broadband policy design. International empirical evidence suggests that the impact of open-access arrangements on fiber penetration and investment varies according to regulatory calibration and competitive architecture, indicating that neutral networks are not a universal solution but a context-dependent institutional instrument. The findings emphasize that the effectiveness of wholesale open-access models requires robust governance, carefully designed wholesale pricing mechanisms, and alignment between network engineering parameters and economic incentives.
