Service Provider Router Revenues Thrive Worldwide in 2016
Read MoreHide Full Article
According to a recent report by Dell’Oro, the service provider router and carrier Ethernet switch industry has witnessed a successful 2016 primarily attributed to strong demand from cloud service providers. This happened despite the fact that the traditional telecom operators trimmed network spending at least for the near-term.
Routers are telecom infrastructure devices used to deliver data packets from one network to another. These are located at gateways, the places where two or more networks connect. In 2016, the aggregate market size of service provider router and carrier Ethernet switch was more than $13 billion.
Phenomenal demand for 100 Gbps Ethernet ports was the main driving force for this record breaking revenue achievement. China played a major roll as cloud service providers of this country were busy installing backbone and data center interconnect networks. Several industry analysts have estimated that the global router market will reach around $72 -- $73 billion by 2022.
Massive growth in the usage of mobile devices has heightened transportation of data traffic substantially. In order to manage this burgeoning demand for photo, video and online data services, telecom operators are required to install more routers to ensure smooth transfer of data packets.
Leading manufacturers of service provider router and carrier Ethernet switch are Juniper Networks Inc. (JNPR - Free Report) , Cisco Systems Inc. (CSCO - Free Report) , Nokia Corp. (NOK - Free Report) and Huawei Technologies.
Will You Make a Fortune on the Shift to Electric Cars?
Here's another stock idea to consider. Much like petroleum 150 years ago, lithium power may soon shake the world, creating millionaires and reshaping geo-politics. Soon electric vehicles (EVs) may be cheaper than gas guzzlers. Some are already reaching 265 miles on a single charge.
With battery prices plummeting and charging stations set to multiply, one company stands out as the #1 stock to buy according to Zacks research.
