The optical networks (ON) market will exceed US$17.5bn by 2018,


for a 3.1 percent CAGR from 2012, predicts global analyst firm Ovum. An exceptionally strong 2Q13, says


the research firm, has signalled the beginning of a spending bounce-back. 2Q13 was the strongest quarter in the last six and was the 7th highest quarter in the last 10 years. “Ovum’s 9.1% growth projection


for North American ON sales in 2013 signals a solid bounce-back year after two years of non-growth” said Ian Redpath, an network infrastructure analyst with the firm – and the author of the report. “Network core investments are


resuming and 100G is being deployed


in volumes,” he explained, adding that EMEA region remains mired in an economic malaise. “We expect EMEA 2013 ON sales


to come in at a dismal negative 9.6% versus the 2012 level,” he said, adding that spending has been down in four of the past five years, and under- investment in the region is becoming more acute. www.ovum.com
