Infonetics Research: Asia Pacific PON port shipments tripling 2008 to 2013

Market research firm Infonetics Research released a new report, PON Equipment in Asia Pacific, which tracks EPON, GPON, and WDM-PON 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.

REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
– Asia Pacific is the hotbed for PON technology, accounting for 55% of
worldwide PON equipment manufacturer revenue in 2008
– Service providers in Asia Pacific, like providers elsewhere in the
world, are building out PON-based FTTH and FTTB networks to better compete
for subscribers by offering faster, cheaper, more synchronous broadband
connections
– These drivers will fuel PON equipment manufacturer revenue derived
from service providers in Asia Pacific to well more than double between
2008 and 2013
– Japanese and Chinese EPON vendors dominate their homelands, with
Mitsubishi the 2008 revenue market share leader in Japan, and ZTE, Huawei,
FiberHome dominating in China
– Alcatel-Lucent is the revenue market share leader for GPON equipment
in Asia Pacific
– 49% of Asia Pacific PON equipment revenue came from Japan in 2008
(down from 81% in 2007); this will change significantly by 2013, as China
becomes the dominant PON deployer
– While EPON technology represents the largest revenue opportunity in
Asia Pacific, GPON is the fastest growing, with revenue expected to
increase at a 139% compound annual growth rate from 2008 to 2013 in Asia
Pacific
