High-Speed Networking is Bright Spot in Declining Markets
Enterprises Adopting More 10 Gbps While Service Providers Drive 40 Gbps Growth
Redwood City, Calif. – March 19, 2009 –
According to recently published reports by Dell’Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the networking and telecommunications industries, 10 Gbps and 40 Gbps technologies are forecasted to grow in 2009 despite broader market declines.
The reports indicate that while enterprise and service provider markets will both see annual declines of close to 10 percent in 2009, high-speed networking will continue to grow. Within enterprise markets, 10 Gbps is gaining hold not only on infrastructure equipment, but also more recently on the client side with server adoption. Within service provider markets, 40 Gbps technologies are gaining traction on routers and optical transport platforms.
The reports also show that many vendors have benefited from this trend toward higher-speed networking adoption. Cisco held top share positions in 10 Gbps Switching and 40 Gbps Routing shipments, while Nokia Siemens held the leadership position in 40 Gbps Optical DWDM long-haul terrestrial shipments during 2008. Over the same time period, Broadcom attained the number one share position for 10 Gbps silicon controllers deployed in servers.
