<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R3470-3271.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[The US glass and fiber optic manufacturing industry includes about 2,000 companies with combined annual revenue of $25 billion. Large companies include PPG Industries, Owens-Illinois, and Corning. The industry is highly concentrated: the 50 largest companies hold close to 90 percent of the market.  Most companies in the industry manufacture products from bulk glass bought from a handful of primary glass manufacturers.   COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE  Demand comes from the construction, auto, bottling, and container industries. The profitability of individual companies depends on low-cost operations because most products are commodities that are bought based on price. Large manufacturers have large efficiencies of scale in operations, which is why the industry is so concentrated. Small manufacturers can compete effectively by producing specialty products or serving a local market. The industry is capital-intensive: annual revenue per worker is close to $200,000.  PRODUCTS, OPERATIONS & TECHNOLOGY  Major products are glass containers, flat glass, fiberglass, and specialty products such as ]]></description>

<title>Bandwidth Needs Analysis of the RBOCs' Advanced Access Architectures: FTTP and FTTN</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R403-117.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[Information Gatekeepers has recognized the Advanced Access Architecture thrusts of the major US carriers as one of the most important events in telecommunications history. As such, IGI has been periodically issuing major reports on the FTTP/FTTn activities of the RBOCs since it began in 2003. Earlier this year we issued &ldquo;Advanced Access Architectures &mdash; 2008 &mdash; AT&T, Verizon, and Qwest Plans and Forecasts,&rdquo; the most comprehensive of our reports on this subject. In recognition of the wide interest and deep importance of the FTTP/FTTN phenomena, we are now issuing a series of reports that focus on narrower aspects of Advanced Access Architectures. Specifically, this report focuses on the bandwidth needed in the access area and on ways to get that bandwidth. The report is a companion to:

<title>Study shows socioeconomic benefits of FTTH adoption</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R464-1559.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[A recent study conducted by Ovum showed definite socioeconomic benefits to individuals and communities connected to the Internet with FTTH (fiber to the home). The study &mdash; consisting of a consumer survey, in-person interviews, and independent research &mdash; focused on rural areas in Sweden, a country that is leading Europe in FTTH adoption. It identified both direct consumer benefits, such as higher quality TV and higher data rates, and aggregate benefits i.e. those relevant to a wider area and communities. The FTTH investment took place as part of a wider strategy to stimulate economic growth and social development. There was unanimous agreement that FTTH networks brought clear advantages to municipalities by reducing telecoms costs, improving communications, and enabling the adoption of new services such as e-learning and telemedicine.

<title>Market Share: 2Q09 optical networks, global and regional</title>
<link>http://www.mindbranch.com/products/R464-1534.html</link>
<description> <![CDATA[Stratospheric spending in China related to 3G mobile builds relieved some pressure from a market reeling from a full year of economic decline. ON revenues in 2Q09 were $3.79 billion, up 8% sequentially but down 11% versus 2Q08. Annualized spending fell to $15.6 billion, a decrease of 4% compared to the year before and the first time global annualized revenues failed to grow year over year since 1Q04. Huawei had the highest sales for the second consecutive quarter with $872 million in revenue, pulling to within a fraction of a point of catching Alcatel-Lucent for overall optical networking (ON) market leadership. The Chinese aggregation spending frenzy pushed ZTE&rsquo;s revenues up 213%, the highest sequential revenue growth of the top ten vendors, while NEC&rsquo;s sales suffered the biggest decline at 25%. Currency fluctuations continue to hamper Alcatel-Lucent, Nortel, Nokia Siemens, Cisco, and others while helping Huawei and ZTE. All product segments ]]></description>
