World Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet Test Equipment
Frost & Sullivan, Dec 2007, Pages: 162
This Frost & Sullivan research service titled World Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet Test Equipment Market provides the revenue forecast and pricing, and application, product, and competitive analysis. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following markets: Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet test equipment along with end-user segments such as network equipment manufacturers (NEMs), service providers and carriers (SP&Cs), and enterprises and others. Application segments include research and development (R&D), installation and maintenance (I&M), and manufacturing
The Growing Need for Carrier Ethernet Sparks Tremendous Growth in GbE and 10GbE Test Equipment Market
The migration from digital subscriber line (DSL)-based services to direct Ethernet services, scalability requirements, increased network and bandwidth speed, and triple-play and quad-play deployments are some of the key factors propelling the adoption of gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 10GbE test equipment. The progression of 10 GbE technology, in particular, is making an incredible impact on the total world GbE and 10GbE test equipment market.
'Although the features provided by GbE and 10GbE are similar, end users can explore greater possibilities with 10GbE because of its significantly faster speed rate,' observes the analyst of this research service. 'This rate places different requirements on vendors, since 10GbE allows end users to perform forward error correction (FEC) and account for the transmission/transport aspect of the protocol.' There is also a significant difference between the two markets in terms of maturity. While the GbE test equipment market is fairly developed, the 10GbE test equipment segment is still widely considered a new technology by industry participants.
Technological Progression and Declining Costs Hold Huge Potential
Although the demand for GbE has been increasing steadily over the past few years, many end users have migrated toward 10GbE test equipment at a rapid rate in order to satisfy their testing requirements. This increased demand is expected to persist, particularly from the network equipment manufacturers (NEMs) and service providers and carriers (SP&C) ends. Furthermore, research indicates that end-user demand is likely generated by the technology itself, given its increasing capability to perform optimally. Besides technological advances, increased competition in this space continues to drive demand from end users. With more vendors developing 10 GbE test equipment, the competition to appeal to a wide variety of customers that wish to migrate from GbE systems is becoming stronger.
The demand for additional functionality and lower prices persists in this market. 'As the communications industry continues to evolve its various technologies, systems that enable effective testing must be further developed by test equipment vendors,' states the analyst. 'With Ethernet prices decreasing over time, it is essential for end users to have access to test equipment that is also declining in cost.'
