Service Provider Router Market Surges on Mobile and Fiber Optic Network Upgrades
Mobile Broadband in United States and Fiber-to-the-Home in China Driving Router Demand
Redwood City, Calif. – August 29, 2011 –
According to a newly published report by Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the networking and telecommunications industries, the worldwide Service Provider Router market grew sharply by 26% in the second quarter of 2011 due to strong demand from the North American and Asia Pacific regions. The report points to mobile backhaul projects in the United States and fiber optic broadband initiatives in China as the underlying drivers of the market growth.
"Mobile backhaul has been a key market driver for several quarters, but this was the first quarter where we saw a substantial effect from the China broadband upgrade," said Shin Umeda, Vice President at Dell'Oro Group. "From a vendor perspective, Alcatel-Lucent jumped to an early lead in mobile backhaul, and Huawei is doing very well in its home China market, but we would expect Cisco and Juniper to pursue these opportunities as well," added Umeda.
