Abstract
This IDC study presents a forecast of the worldwide telecom market based on IDC' s current forecasts. IDC' s telecommunications equipment service has been tracking and quantifying the various product segments that make up the telecom equipment landscape.
Key questions answered include:
- What is the telecom equipment revenue opportunity through 2012?
- Which segments will grow the fastest, and which segments will continue to struggle?
- Which geographic regions will grow the fastest?
"IDC believes that optical transport, routing, switching, video infrastructure, and next-generation access technologies are the critical infrastructure segments needed to meet demands for video distribution as well as growing high-speed access requirements," says David Emberley, research manager, in the Telecommunications Equipment group. "As demand for content drives carriers to accelerate deployments, stability of product, scalability, and flexibility to offer new services quickly will be the deciding factors in a carriers choice of infrastructure provider."
