World LAN/WAN Test Equipment and Cable Tester Markets

Frost & Sullivan, April 2001



Telecommunications Boom Fosters Strong Demand for Test

The rapid expansion of high-speed local area networks (LANs)and wide area
networks (WANs)has meant a surge in demand for test equipment and cable
testers. Networks have become an integral part of work environments, and
businesses in a variety of industries require that their networks remain online
around the clock. With reliability, network integrity, and efficient operation all
top priorities, network operators require robust testing and monitoring solutions that will address their needs.

This Frost &Sullivan research analyzes the major segments of the LAN/WAN
test equipment industry, including markets for installation and monitoring
equipment, functional test equipment, and network analyzers and cable
testers .By identifying drivers and restraints and pr viding expert f recasts,
this research offers its readers a comprehensive guide to the future of the
marketplace.

Market Participants Must Keep Pace with the Evolving Technologies and Protocols

LAN/WAN test equipment manufacturers must develop state-of-the-art test
equipment fast enough to meet end-user demand, writes the analyst responsible for this report. The development of new technologies, from
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)to Dense Wave Division Multiplexing
(DWDM),and new protocols, such as Voice Over IP (VOIP),are pushing test
equipment manufacturers to commit significant resources to their won product development.
Test equipment manufacturers must constantly evolve, innovate, and enhance
the testing capabilities of their systems, says the analyst. Participants that
keep pace with evolving technologies are in a position to dramatically increase
their market share. This report highlights emerging trends that will help your
company stay ahead in this ever-changing industry.

Product Integration Will Determine Market Winner

Integration has become an essential concept in the network industry and in
the test equipment arena as well, says the analyst. As local and wide area networks continue to converge, the market will no longer distinguish LAN test
equipment from WAN test equipment. There will be increasing demand for
the integration of features from previously distinct products, such as cable
testers and network analyzers.

In the interest of cost effectiveness and efficiency, network operators
demand test solutions that are integrated and operate remotely from a centralized location, says the analyst. End users want complete solutions that
monitor, diagnose, and correct network problems. By tracking end user
demands, this report enables its readers to optimize product development and
ultimately maximize market gains.
