Report Summary

A Switch to Packet identifies the market forces driving Telco service providers to reinvent their core networks as packet networks. Just as analog-to-digital defined the multi-billion dollar market in the 1980’s and 1990’s, circuit-to-packet will be the driving force of the central office market in the 21st century.

The in-depth report identifies three key factors that define and drive the Switching Equipment market in North America in the coming decade:
1. The ascendancy of TCP/IP protocol and the resulting new
applications for Telecom networks.
2. Competitive Shifts in the telecommunications landscape
driven by the Telecom Act of 1996
3. The major shift in service provider capital expenditures in
the core and local networks away form circuit and to
packet technology.

A Switch to Packet analyzes the challenges, risks and opportunities that Telco’s and their suppliers will face during the transition from the POTS-era to the Internet Age.
