Description

This IDC study forecasts the five-year revenue opportunity for metro Ethernet equipment from 2005 to 2009. 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 wave-division multiplexing (WDM). The study identifies market share leaders for 2004 for the metro Ethernet equipment market as a whole and for each of the four individual equipment segments. Issues addressed include the following:

What is the revenue opportunity for metro Ethernet equipment from 2005 to 2009? Which vendors lead in each of the four individual equipment segments, and which vendors lead the metro Ethernet equipment market as a whole? How are the major geographic regions expected to fare in the market over the next five years? What types of architectures are carriers adopting, and how do these architectures vary by geographic region?

"The size and forecast growth rate make metro Ethernet one of the most significant opportunities in wireline telecom infrastructure over the next five years." ? Sterling Perrin, research manager, Optical Networks
