Enterprise telephony equipment sales jump 11% in 3Q07; Cisco pulls ahead of the pack
After dipping 1% in the previous quarter,
enterprise telephony equipment manufacturers saw an 11% jump in worldwide
sales in 3Q07 to reach $2.6 billion, according to Infonetics Research's
latest "Enterprise Telephony" report.
Revenue and shipments increased in all enterprise telephony categories
tracked by Infonetics, led by the TDM segment, which outpaced IP PBX sales
in 3Q07, the report shows.
"The Big Three (Avaya, Cisco, and Nortel) had excellent quarters, all
growing well into the double digits," said Matthias Machowinski, directing
analyst for enterprise voice and data at Infonetics Research. "The bump
this quarter was partially due to seasonal factors, as the third quarter
tends to be strong, but also because of increased demand across the board,
even in the TDM segment. Overall, 2007 is on track for high single-digit
growth over 2006."
Other highlights from the report:
-- Cisco pulls away from the pack in 3Q07, after several quarters of neck
and neck competition between the top 5 IP PBX vendors
-- Worldwide VoIP gateway sales are up 10% in 3Q07 over 2Q07
