Thomson Telecom Drives SOHO Wireless LAN Market Growth in the Fourth Quarter of 2006, According to Dell'Oro Group
Posted on: Tuesday, 20 February 2007, 12:00 CST
A recently published report from Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the networking and telecommunications industries, reveals that Thomson Telecom posted sequential quarterly revenue growth of 55 percent in the fourth quarter of 2006, more than any other vendor in the small office / home office (SOHO) wireless LAN market.
According to the report, Thomson Telecom's recent strength in the market indicates the continued trend for service providers to supply customer premise equipment with wireless LAN capabilities, such as France Telecom's Livebox and BT's Home Hub.
"In the fourth quarter, Thomson Telecom came in a close second behind Linksys in market share," said Elmer Choy, Senior Analyst of Wireless LAN Research at Dell'Oro Group. "The last time a vendor in the SOHO market came this close to contesting Linksys' market leadership was in 2003. After a significant margin, NETGEAR, Siemens, and D-Link follow next in market share," added Choy.
The report also indicates that the SOHO market comprises the largest segment of the total wireless LAN market; however, the Enterprise market grew the fastest during 2006, with an annual revenue increase of 37 percent.
