Ethernet Switch Market Retreats in the First Quarter of 2006; Ports and Revenues Post Similar Declines, According to Dell'Oro Group
Posted on: Wednesday, 17 May 2006, 12:02 CDT
A recently published report from Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the networking and telecommunications industries, reveals that in the first quarter of 2006, the Ethernet Switch market declined sequentially following three consecutive quarters of growth. The report indicates that the Fast Ethernet segment, which was instrumental in driving growth in the fourth quarter of 2005, experienced the most severe decline.
"Although the market did decline sequentially, on a year-over-year basis it experienced a double digit increase," said Seamus Crehan, Director of Ethernet Switch Research at Dell'Oro Group. "We still believe that the Ethernet Switch market remains robust and attribute the first quarter decline more to seasonal softness than to overall market weakness," added Crehan.
