Ovum-RHK Analysis
Despite some macro-level concerns, such as regional economic stability, regulatory clarity, and the uptake of IPTV, the most likely scenario for IP packet transport is strong growth driven by IP VPNs and a move to 10 Mbps+ broadband Internet services.
Key Macro-level Market Drivers
Significant clarity in regulation has occurred over the last two years, but the rewriting of the U.S. 1996 Telecom reform act threatens to delay clarification of a number of important issues. The most disturbing additional issue is the lack of clarity on future Asia-Pacific economic performance.
Product Group Forecasts
For 2010, we forecast the following: Core IP routers: $3.1B; edge IP routers: $2.3B; subscriber services routers: $1.2B; MSS: $1.1B; and Ethernet service switches: $351M.
Regional Forecasts
North America will be about 35 percent, EMEA about 35 percent, and AP about 24 percent of the market through the forecast period.
Forecast Methodology
Key drivers are traffic, utilization, service demand, and product configurations.
The Bottom Line
The most likely scenario is for strong growth during the forecast period, but particular attention needs to be given to economic stability in Asia and regulatory reform in North America.
