PRESS RELEASE

Dittberner Forecasts Worldwide Multiservice WAN Carrier Switch Market to Reach US$18.2 Billion in 2008

The Worldwide Multiservice WAN Carrier Switch Market will Progress at a CAGR of 26% from 2001 to 2008.

Washington, D.C.- March 18, 2002 - According to its newly released report titled "High Performance Routers and Multiservice Switches for Public Networks," Dittberner Associates finds that the worldwide carrier multiservice WAN switch market will increase from US$3.76 billion in 2001 to US$18.2 billion in 2008.

Furthermore, Dittberner forecasts that the number of carrier WAN switch / routers shipped will increase from 24,841 units in 2001 to 82,157 in 2008. These figures were drawn from Dittberner's exhaustive analyses of potential growth in revenues and shipment of packet-based WAN switches and routers through the year 2008.

Donald Dittberner, editor-in-chief and President of Dittberner, maintains that the "multiservice WAN switching market will be less affected by carriers' future CAPEX reductions primarily because service providers are constantly looking to expand and increase their portfolio of services off a common platform." He claims that "this market segment will benefit from carriers looking to replace older ATM / Frame Relay switches, as well as their prospective migration to more complex IP / ATM / MPLS integrated networks."
