The Carrier Ethernet market is growing rapidly as carriers move toward IP and packet-based networks. As Ethernet is fast becoming the protocol of choice for carrier networks, Ethernet routers and switches are increasingly being deployed in the access and aggregation areas of carrier networks to enable service providers to more economically offer high-bandwidth applications such as IPTV and videoconferencing.

As the opportunity for Ethernet routers and switches deployments in carrier networks increases, vendors are attempting to meet the carrier requirements by either adding carrier-grade features or Ethernet technologies to existing product lines or building new products solely targeting this market. The Carrier Ethernet report tracks market for these products.

To take advantage of the opportunities in this market, equipment vendors, component manufacturers, service providers, and financial institutions need to answer critical business questions including:

What advantages do Ethernet-specific routers have over multi-service routers?
Which equipment vendors lead the markets and who are the emerging players?
Which services are driving demand for Carrier Ethernet Routers and Switches?

To answer these and other important questions, Dell’Oro Group delivers quarterly reports on the Carrier Ethernet market.
