This IDC study presents our current forecast of the worldwide Ethernet access device (EAD) market. Ethernet access device is a last-mile technology that provides a demarcation between the carriers' network (WAN) and a customer's network (LAN). EADs provide a bridge between these two networks and enable the provisioning of Ethernet services from the service provider core all the way to the customer premises.

Key questions answered include:

  • What is the Ethernet access equipment revenue opportunity through 2016?
  • Which geographic regions will grow the fastest?
  • Which vendor dominates this market?

"Increasing demand for mobile backhaul and business connectivity will drive the worldwide market for EADs from $691.8 million in 2011 to $1.4 billion by 2016." — David Emberley, research manager, Telecom Equipment
