10 Gbps Ethernet LAN on Motherboard Forecast to Surpass Adapter Cards
by End of 2009
Blade Servers to Drive Initial Adoption
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – August 03, 2009 – According to a newly published report by Dell’Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the networking and telecommunications industries, 10 Gbps Ethernet LAN on Motherboard (LOM) shipments are forecast to surpass those of network adapter cards by the end of this year. The report, which provides a 5-year market forecast, indicates that blade servers will be the catalyst for driving the initial ramp of LOMs, with rack and tower servers contributing to subsequent volumes.
“Although blade server shipments are a small portion of overall server unit shipments, the volumes on this class of server as projected through 2011 are still large enough to drive 10 Gbps Ethernet LOM shipments above that of 10 Gbps Ethernet adapter card shipments,” said Seamus Crehan, Vice President at Dell’Oro Group.
