Infonetics: OTN Switching is Booming; Alcatel-Lucent, Ciena, and Infinera Cashing InCAMPBELL, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Market research firm Infonetics Research released its latest OTN and Packet Optical Hardware report, which tracks optical transport network (OTN) switching and transport equipment and packet-optical transport systems (P-OTS). ANALYST NOTE "OTN switching had a major year of growth in 2013 as service providers prioritized installation of integrated WDM+OTN switching and 100G coherent technology in the core. Alcatel-Lucent, Ciena, and Infinera (News - Alert) are the key beneficiaries here," notes Andrew Schmitt, principal analyst for optical at Infonetics Research. "Meanwhile, Chinese carriers continue to expand large deployments of OTN switching, with Huawei as the sole beneficiary." Schmitt adds: "Over in the P-OTS space, incumbent vendors Cisco, Fujitsu (News - Alert), Tellabs, Ciena, and Alcatel-Lucent are the market leaders, but new players BTI, Cyan, Transmode, and Ericsson are challenging with pure-play P-OTS platforms."
