Dell'Oro Group Forecasts Slowing Optical Equipment Market; Variations in Regional Markets Will Lead to Less Consistent Worldwide Performance

Posted on: Monday, 14 August 2006, 12:00 CDT

In a newly released report, Dell'Oro Group forecasts the worldwide Optical Transport equipment market to continue growing -- albeit at slower rates. Dell'Oro Group forecasts the Optical Transport market will reach almost $10 billion from 2008 to 2010. The report shows how varying growth patterns of regional markets will contribute to the overall market performance.

"The Optical market recorded exceptional growth last year as all regions of the world performed well, but we expect less consistent regional performance over the coming years," said Shin Umeda, Principal Analyst for Optical Transport research at Dell'Oro Group. "For example, in 2006, the North American market is on track for double-digit growth as service providers continue network projects to deliver high-speed broadband services. On the other hand, the European region will see substantially less growth as service providers have already completed many of their projects," added Umeda.
