TechNavio today launched its report, Optical Network Hardware Market in the EMEA Region 2011-2015, based on an in-depth analysis focusing exclusively on the EMEA region. The report aims to aid decision makers’ understanding of the present and future landscape of the market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Networking team said: ”Western Europe is currently the biggest market for optical network hardware in the EMEA region, but the market is becoming saturated and is witnessing fewer investments by telecom operators as a result of the ongoing economic crisis. However, Central and Eastern Europe are experiencing high market growth. Telecom operators in Western Europe have therefore started investing in these regions to meet their high bandwidth requirements. Hence, high growth in Central and Eastern Europe is a major trend in the Optical Network Hardware market in the EMEA region.”
According to the report, the most important force driving the adoption of optical network equipment is the need for more bandwidth for activities such as web surfing, e-mail browsing, file downloading, online gaming, internet protocol video on demand (IPVOD), and videophone usage. Optical fiber cables provide the speed, agility, and accessibility required by service providers to offer services that consume high bandwidth. Thus, the growing market for high-bandwidth services presents a good opportunity for optical network hardware providers.
Further, the report reveals that the high initial investment required for laying down fiber cables is one of the major challenges hindering the growth of the Optical Network Hardware market in the EMEA region.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
