Global Passive Optical Network Equipment Market 2014-2018: CAGR, Market Size, Forecasts till 2018
M2 - Fri Mar 28, 9:33AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/qc3wjk/global_passive) has announced the addition of the "Global Passive Optical Network Equipment Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The analysts forecast the Global Passive Optical Network Equipment market will grow at a CAGR of 3.56 percent over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increasing growth of PON equipment in the APAC region. The Global Passive Optical Network Equipment market has also been witnessing the development of ultra-high-capacity optical networks. However, the declining ASPs of PON equipment could pose a challenge to the growth of this market. The key vendors dominating this space are Alcatel-Lucent, Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., Mitsubishi Electric Corp., Sumitomo Electric Networks Inc., and ZTE Corp. The other vendors mentioned in the report are Adtran Inc., Calix Network Inc., Cisco Systems Inc., Dasan Networks Inc., ECI Telecom, Fiberhome Technologies Group, Freescale Semiconductor Inc., Fujitsu Ltd., Hitachi Ltd., Motorola Solutions Inc., NEC Corp., PMC-Sierra Inc., Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, Tellabs Inc., Ubiquoss Inc., UTStarcom Inc., Zhone Technologies Inc., and ZyXEL Communications Corp. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: Recently, there has been an upsurge of deployment of higher capacities because of the deployment of 10G and 40G optical transmission networks. Similarly, many leading vendors such as Alcatel-Lucent and Huawei announced they are taking a step further in the future by innovating and conducting trials for capacities as large as 400G and 10 petabits per second transmission. Though currently the capacities are much larger than required, they are still considered as a future investment considering the huge expansion in data traffic.
