| This IDC study forecasts the five-year revenue opportunity for metro Ethernet
equipment from 2004 to 2008. IDC breaks down metro Ethernet equipment revenue
by geographic region, including North America, Europe, Asia/Pacific, and the
rest of the world (ROW). IDC also breaks down the worldwide market by the major
equipment segments, including Layer 2/3 switches, routers, Synchronous Optical
Network (SONET)/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) multiservice provisioning
platforms (MSPPs), and metro WDM. The study identifies market share leaders for
2003 for the metro Ethernet equipment market as a whole and for each of the
four individual equipment segments. Issues addressed include the following:
y What is the revenue opportunity for metro Ethernet equipment from 2004 to
2008?
y Which vendors lead in each of the four individual equipment segments, and
which vendors lead the metro Ethernet equipment market as a whole?
y How are the major geographic regions expected to fare in the market over the
next five years?
y What types of architectures are carriers adopting, and how do these
architectures vary by geographic region?
"The migration of Ethernet technology from the LAN to the metro, driven by
continued growth in data, is beginning to change the way carriers architect
their metro networks, with a movement ? albeit slow in incumbent networks ?
away from traditional SONET/SDH approaches and toward Ethernet." ? Sterling
Perrin, senior research analyst, Optical Networks
