Long-haul DWDM has been the workhorse of the next-generation optical networking market, but the market has been battered during the past
two years. Although its prominence is diminishing, long-haul DWDM will continue to play an important role. This study forecasts the global
long-haul DWDM equipment opportunity from 2003?2007 by geographic region, presents 2002 market share data, and identifies the key trends.
Issues addressed include the following:
- When will long-haul DWDM stop contracting, and what are the growth prospects through 2007?
- Which vendors led this market in 2002, globally and in North America?
- What trends will drive long-haul DWDM development and deployments over the next five years?
"The post-downturn long-haul DWDM market will look very different from the market of the boom years. Industry focus will remain on
price reduction, not performance, capping potential revenue gains for the industry. In addition, higher levels of market saturation will
also cap overall market revenue gains," said Sterling Perrin, senior research analyst, Optical Networks.
