According to Heavy Reading’s latest market tracker, the worldwide market for packet-optical switching systems is anticipated to rise to $2.9 billion in 2015 that shows a compounded yearly growth rate of 66.5% from 2010 to 2015.
The advanced market tracker of Heavy Reading named Core Packet-Optical is a bi-annual forecasting solution that tracks the movement of core optical network to packets. This tracker observes core packet-optical transport progression from the start that includes delivering brief and total, up-to-date intelligence, which encompasses migration to switching of Optical Transport Network (OTN), combination of switching and WDM, the task of connection-oriented Ethernet and packet switching in the core nd several other trends.
The senior analyst of Heavy Reading's Optical Networks has said that packet-optical switching will gain advantage from a moderate enhancement in carrier spending on the core network, but will grow generally at the cost of expenses on DWDM systems that are long-haul, stand-alone and separate optical crossconnects based on SDH-Sonet. So, the packet-optical switching will rise from a share of 6.2% of switching spending and core transport and during 2010 to a total spending of 53.5% in 2015.
He added that several dealers are seeing the necessities for the latest core optical transport switching as a chance to go into a section that no one has ventured as yet for more than a decade.
