Routers are the Internet: High-End Routing Market Analysis

This report discusses the unit shipments and end-use sales in the mid-range, high-end and terabit router market in 2000 and 1H 2001. It also provides a five-year forecast by segment. In 2001, the overall router market is expected to grow in unit shipments by 28.1% from 2000. Cisco remains the leader in all three segments; however, new startups and new products will offer competition and growth opportunities. New acquisitions by Juniper and Nokia were announced in 2001. Enterprises and service providers were not purchasing as much equipment in 2001, but the mid-range, high-end and terabit router segments will grow in years to come.
