If anyone has a copy of the complete Aberdeen report, please contact me via Private Message. JGH Moving at Light Speed: The Transition to Optical Networks Market Analysis, Dynamics, and Forecasts Moving at Light Speed: The Transition to Optical Networks provides vital information and analysis on the next generation of optically enabled networks (OENs) and their evolution over the next five years. As access to data continues to fuel the New Economy, bandwidth allocation and service delivery become increasingly important to basic business operations. The ability of optical network solution providers and the OEN products to meet the burgeoning demand for business communications capacity is of great concern to e-business. Only OENs offer the speed, scalability and manageability to meet today?s needs and the demands of tomorrow. Written by Andrew McCormick, head of Aberdeen?s Optical Communications practice, this report is based upon analysis of various telecommunications market factors such as customer demand, technological advances, and the changing nature of supplier relationships within the industry. This timely report specifically addresses the evolution of telecommunications from a voice to data model, the growth of the new optical network, and the phased introduction of digital/optical solutions for both the users (carriers and service providers) and suppliers (equipment manufacturers.). Further, the report closely examines four network segments: the long-haul network connecting metropolitan networks; the metropolitan area network (MAN) providing interoffice connectivity between central offices (COs) or points-of-presence (POPs) or adjacent cities; the access network connecting the customer premise with the CO or POP (the "last mile"); and optical switching and cross-connects (OSXs) that reside at network intersections.
