CAMPBELL, California, May 6, 2010—Market research firm Infonetics Research (www.twitter.com/infonetics) released its annual PON Equipment in Asia Pacific report, which tracks WDM-PON; 2.5G and 10G GPON; and 1.25G/2.5G and 10G EPON equipment vendors, ports, and revenue in the major markets of Asia Pacific: China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the rest of Asia Pacific as a group (including Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Indonesia, Taiwan, Malaysia, and Vietnam).
ANALYST NOTE
“Not surprisingly, China was the catalyst behind passive optical network equipment growth in 2009. China Telecom’s and China Unicom’s heavy investments in Ethernet-PON OLTs and ONTs in 2009 will be joined by China Mobile’s Gigabit-PON fiber-to-the-home investments in 2010. Subscriber growth continued in Japan and South Korea, where much of the infrastructure buildout for fiber-to-the-building and FTTH services has already been completed. India’s BSNL also helped pace the GPON market in 2009, purchasing equipment to support their 700,000-line rollout throughout 2010,” notes Jeff Heynen, directing analyst for broadband at Infonetics Research.
REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
- Asia Pacific PON equipment revenue totaled $1.1 billion in 2009, up 38% from 2008
- The Asia Pacific region accounted for 63% of the world’s PON equipment revenue in 2009
- Huawei leads the Asia Pacific region for PON equipment sales
- Strong growth in the Chinese PON market, particularly the GPON segment, is expected to continue
- By 2014, Infonetics Research forecasts 10G EPON and 10G GPON will together make up about 1/3 of all PON equipment revenue in Asia Pacific
- A slowdown in PON equipment sales in South Korea is expected as infrastructure buildouts reach strategic goals, and the focus shifts to turning up new subscribers despite saturation in Seoul, Busan, and Incheon
