Research and Markets: Learn More About 10-Gigabit Networking: A Market and Technology Assessment

Posted on: Thursday, 27 January 2005, 15:00 CST

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c12239) has announced the addition of 10-Gigabit Networking: A Market and Technology Assessment to their offering

The passing of time has opened up new opportunities beyond the standard long-haul and metro optical transport applications commonly associated with 10G. And many new questions need to be answered:

- OC-192 router ports are 50 times more expensive than the average 10GigE port, how is this impacting networking decisions?

- Linux clusters have blasted open the market for 10G Infiniband, what will this mean for Fibre Channel and Ethernet?

- Corporations, research labs, and governments are leading the charge to 10G, will service providers follow them?

- Copper Gigabit Ethernet ports still outsell Fiber Gigabit Ethernet by a 2-to-1 margin, will the same ratio hold up for 10-Gigabit Ethernet? And which copper standard will win - 10GBASE-CX or 10GBASE-T?

- What does the future hold for 10-Gbps MSAs, such as XENPAK and XPAK?

- What technological developments in laser, detector, dispersion compensation and modulation technology are likely to impact the market?

- Will 40-Gbps networking ever happen?

10 Gigabit Networking: A Market and Technology Assessment answers these questions by examining deployment and pricing trends, many of which are never discussed in the trade press. The report looks not only at how 10G products are meeting demand, but how higher production volumes and lower prices are stimulating demand for applications well beyond the intentions of standards makers and hardware manufacturers. The report includes detailed five-year forecasts of 10G networking, as well as in-depth analysis of the factors that are driving one of the fastest growing segments of the networking business.
