10 Gigabit Ethernet Revenues Soar; 2Q06 Results Blow Past Billion Dollar Annual Run Rate

Posted on: Wednesday, 16 August 2006, 12:00 CDT

A recently published report from Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the networking and telecommunications industries, reveals that the 10 Gigabit Ethernet Switch market grew substantially in the second quarter of 2006, following lackluster results in the prior quarter. The report indicates that the modular -- or chassis -- segment rebounded to drive most of the quarter's strong results.

"Not only did 10 Gigabit Ethernet port shipments increase dramatically during the quarter, but average selling prices also rose, resulting in extra strong revenue growth for this segment," said Seamus Crehan, Senior Director of Ethernet Switch Research at Dell'Oro Group. "Although prices did increase during the quarter, we expect the general trend of steep declines to resume as vendors introduce higher port density line cards and fixed configuration products," added Crehan. 10 Gigabit Ethernet Switch Market 2Q06 Market Leaders (Revenue) Total Market 2Q06 ------------------------- -------------- Manufacturers' Revenue $302 million Vendor Rank ------------------------- -------------- Cisco 1 Force10 2 Foundry 3 Nortel 4 Extreme 5 HP ProCurve 6
