Enterprise Switching: Product Landscape Report

Product Type: Market Research Report

Product Code: R759-3975
Description
The enterprise switching market is loosely divided into four separate segments. There is one axis be-tween hardware form factors (fixed versus modular) and another axis on target application (backbone/data center versus wiring closet). Enterprises depend on modular switching solutions for all aspects of the enterprise network: in the enterprise core and data center, the distribution layer that lies between the core and wiring closet, and in the wiring closet itself. Modular solutions provide port diversity and density that fixed solutions simply cannot match. There are also new high-capacity modular solutions that only the largest of enterprises and institutions use for high-density and high-speed deployments. This Competitive Landscape Report combines company and market analysis from the leading telecommunications competitive response firm, Current Analysis, with quantitative market share data from one of the industry's most respected market research firms, Synergy Research Group.
