Overview of the global carrier Ethernet access devices market

Technavio’s global carrier Ethernet access devices market research report predicts that the global carrier Ethernet access devices market will grow steadily at a CAGR of more than 3% by 2021. The increasing adoption of Ethernet access devices in telecom networks backhaul is identified as one of the primary growth factors for this market. The global telecom industry is witnessing a rapid adoption of fiber cables as the first-choice connection or backhaul due to the increasing requirement of high-speed packet transfer. A number of telecom operators are deploying advanced telecom technologies such as 3G and long-term evolution (LTE). These technological advancements enable telecom operators to offer high-speed broadband services. For better connectivity of these technologies, telecom operators are replacing their legacy backhaul network with advanced next-generation networks. To enhance the efficiency of the backhaul networks, they are also deploying more fiber networks and are replacing the traditional copper-based carrier Ethernet access devices in their networks.

In terms of geographic regions, the Americas will be the major revenue contributor to the carrier Ethernet access devices market throughout the forecast period. The presence of various telecom operators in this region that are switching their current telecom technology to more improved versions drive the demand for carrier Ethernet access devices in the Americas.  Additionally, the rise in adoption of 100 GbE switches due to the growing demand for high-speed networks will also drive the growth of the market in this region.
