According to Dell'Oro Group's recently published 5-Year Forecast Report of the Optical Transport equipment market, a stable market environment is forecast for optical equipment in 2004 (0-1% Y/Y growth), with a return to sales growth anticipated in 2005. Dell'Oro Group forecasts Optical Transport equipment sales to be $7.3 B in 2008.
"The market for optical transport equipment has improved and is set to exit the downturn in 2004. Metro applications of optical equipment will lead this recovery as Service Providers focus on winning and retaining customers through differentiated service offerings," said Jimmy Yu, an analyst at Dell'Oro Group. "We believe new service offerings will require additional investment in transport equipment such as DWDM Metro and SONET/SDH Multiservice for new ring and aggregation points. In 2004, we estimate that approximately 65% of optical transport equipment sales will be deployed in a metro application, versus 30% three years ago at the peak of the optical market."
