Mobile backhaul equipment market growing fast, with no letup in sight
Mobile backhaul equipment investments jumped a healthy 19% in 2008 to $4.6 billion worldwide, and revenue is set to explode over the next 5 years and beyond, reports Infonetics Research. The report also said that the most quickly changing technologies between 2008 and 2013 are Ethernet microwave and Ethernet copper and fiber. In all the major world regions, operators will gradually shift to Ethernet backhaul, although it will be a slower shift in Asia Pacific and Central/Latin America, as a higher proportion of overall mobile traffic remains voice for a longer period. more
