Infonetics: Ethernet Microwave Gear up 5% from Year-Ago Quarter; Backhaul Fuels Overall Microwave Market
Dec. 4, 2012 02:15 PM
Market research firm Infonetics
Research released excerpts from its 3rd quarter 2012 (3Q12) Microwave
Equipment market size, market share, and forecast report, which
analyzes time-division multiplexing (TDM),
Ethernet, and dual Ethernet/TDM microwave equipment by spectrum,
capacity, form factor, and architecture.
ANALYST NOTE
“The microwave equipment market held steady overall in the 3rd quarter,
with wildly varying results across segments,” reports Richard
Webb, directing analyst for microwave, mobile offload, and mobile
broadband devices at Infonetics
Research. “Current trends will continue, with TDM microwave
equipment declining precipitously; the large dual-mode TDM/Ethernet
microwave segment waning as well but at a much slower rate; and
Ethernet-only microwave equipment surging year after year, powered by
sustained mobile macrocell backhaul demand.”
Webb
adds: “Among the top 3 players in the market, leader Ericsson
posted a 7% revenue gain to give them nearly a quarter of the global
market, their strongest standing since early 2011; Huawei, who
had more than doubled their microwave revenue the previous quarter, saw
a 19% decline this quarter; and NEC’s microwave revenue
rose 17%, putting them within 1 market share point of Huawei. Alcatel-Lucent
continue to lead the fast-growing Ethernet microwave segment.”
MICROWAVE MARKET HIGHLIGHTS
-
While flat quarter-over-quarter in 3Q12, the worldwide microwave
equipment market is down 4% from the year-ago 3rd quarter,
to $1.24 billion, weighed down by flagging sales of TDM and dual
TDM/Ethernet microwave equipment
-
Meanwhile, the Ethernet microwave equipment segment is up 5%
year-over-year and is forecast by Infonetics to grow at a 38% CAGR
from 2011 to 2016
-
In 3Q12, backhaul equipment made up 85% of total microwave revenue
-
EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) accounted for the highest
regional proportion of microwave revenue, ahead of Asia Pacific, North
America, and Latin America
