Dell'Oro Group Forecasts IP PBX Sales to Reach $2 Billion in 2010
IP PBX Leads Enterprise Voice Market Growth
REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. – January 31, 2006 – According to a recent report by Dell’Oro Group, the trusted
source for information about the networking and telecommunications industries,
IP PBX sales are forecasted to reach $2 billion in 2010, nearly a three-fold
increase from 2005. Combined IP PBX and Hybrid IP/TDM PBX sales are projected
to gain share steadily over traditional PBX and key systems.
"The conversion to VoIP is the dominant factor in the enterprise voice
market over the next several years," said Steve Raab, Director of IP
Telephony Research for Dell’Oro Group. "Modernizing the installed base
of traditional PBX technology to IP telephony requires coordinated investment
in data networking and enterprise voice equipment. During this technology
transition, Hybrid IP/TDM PBXs that embody newer IP and legacy TDM technology
will represent a majority of sales," added Raab.
Dell'Oro Group forecasts sales of
IP telephones to exceed $4 billion in 2010, driven by businesses adopting IP
Centrex service and upgrading PBX handsets to IP telephones. In addition, consumers
of residential Voice-over-Internet-Protocol (VoIP) are expected to adopt wireless
LAN phones and soft phones.
