Carrier Migration to Converged IP Networks: The Impact on Optical and Next Generation Switching
Pioneer Consulting, Sep 2002, Pages: 141
How do leading carriers plan to migrate their networks to the next generation, converged IP networks of tomorrow? As they migrate to next generation IP networks, which strategies will they pursue and how will these affect demand for switching solutions? Which switching technologies will dominate and where will they be deployed in the carrier network of the future? Carrier Migration to Converged, IP Networks: The Impact on Optical and Next Generation Switching is the only market report available today that addresses these questions and provides a comprehensive analysis of carrier IP convergence from a multi-layered network perspective.
The first to present the impact of carrier network migration on demand for cutting-edge switching solutions, this report is indispensable for decision-making by carriers and switching solution vendors alike, who are seeking to maximize profitability in tight capital markets. As additional value to the reader, the report also provides a thorough description of the current market situation, identifying the key drivers affecting carrier migration plans and capital expenditures. Detailed case studies of carriers representing the Ilec/Legacy Carrier, IXC and Alternative Carrier segments are provided, along with forecasts of Capex budgets by switch technology. Carriers claim they prefer an open, standards-based approach to network migration because they believe it will relieve them from dependence on a single vendor. The goal is to reduce costs while improving time-to-market with customized applications. Although such solutions are available today, many carriers continue investing in single vendor, “single box” solutions. In addition to budget constraints and increasing competitive pressures, carriers face a confusing array of technology choices.
Next generation solutions offer unprecedented flexibility and support many different approaches to migration. Given these market dynamics, vendors are struggling to identify service provider needs, expectations and real carrier plans to migrate their networks to a common, IP-based infrastructure. Against this backdrop, Pioneer’s new, insightful report, analyzes carrier network migration and service strategies, as well as current carrier solutions and their rationales. Other important topics analyzed by the report include: · Various approaches to network consolidation · How the addition of Mpls and Gmpls affects the network · Architectural requirements and alternatives · Capex trends · Why carriers face an uphill battle
