Posted on: Thursday, 19 February 2004, 06:00 CST

According to a recently published report by Dell'Oro Group, the total worldwide Optical Transport equipment market grew 15% Q/Q to a little over $1.7 billion in 4Q03. Sales into North America grew 6% Q/Q while the international market surged 19% Q/Q. Strength in sales into EMEA and Asia Pacific benefited Alcatel and NEC in particular. Their sales grew 65% and 41% respectively in 4Q03. ¶"This was the largest sequential growth that the optical transport market has experienced in well over two years," said Jimmy Yu, a senior analyst at Dell'Oro Group. "This is definitely a positive signal that spending for optical transport equipment is improving. We are forecasting steady growth in 2004, after a seasonal sales drop in 1Q04."
