Service Provider Voice Core Market Outlook is Stabilizing, Forecasts Dell'Oro Group

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Feb. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for information about the networking and telecommunications industries, reported that service provider voice core equipment spending over the next five years is expected to remain approximately constant at nearly $7 billion per year. This market has been in decline over the past five years. Growth segments such as IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Core, Voice Application Servers and Session Border Controllers (SBC) are forecast to offset declines in mature product segments such as Softswitch and Media Gateway.

The underlying IMS architecture enables not just voice, but also messaging, file transfer, and video calls. As service providers deploy these services, they will be more effective in competing with Over-the-Top services that consumers purchase directly with their smartphones," said Chris DePuy, Vice President at Dell'Oro Group. "We expect to see a significant increase in IMS-based commercial deployments over the next year," concluded DePuy.

Projections for the Session Border Controller market remain essentially unchanged despite volatile results from some vendors in this market. The forecast report also includes Voice over LTE (VoLTE) subscribers, IMS Core equipment, Softswitch and Media Gateway equipment, and Enterprise Session Border Controllers. Markets are covered for vendors such as Acme Packet, Alcatel-Lucent, Broadsoft, GENBAND, Huawei, Metaswitch, Nokia-Siemens Networks, Sonus, and ZTE.
