Report: 42% Jump in SBCs Boosts 2010 Carrier VoIP Market

Infonetics Research released its fourth quarter 2010 (4Q10) Service Provider VoIP Equipment and Subscribers market share and forecast report.

ANALYST NOTE

"The shift to IP continues, as reflected in the continued rise of SBCs and the decline in trunk media gateways in 2010. SBCs ended 2010 with a phenomenal revenue increase of 42% over 2009 due to increases in IP interconnectivity in fixed and mobile networks, growth in the number of VoIP subscribers, and SIP trunking," notes Diane Myers, directing analyst for VoIP and IMS at Infonetics Research.
