US enterprises and consumers are expected to spend more than $44 billion over the next five years on carrier Ethernet services, according to a new research from The Insight Research Corporation.
With metro-area and wide-area Ethernet services readily available from virtually all major data service providers, the market is expected to grow from $4 billion in 2011 to nearly $11.1 billion by 2016.
Ethernet's central driver continues to be its ability to meet seemingly endlessly growing bandwidth demands at lower cost and with greater flexibility than competing services.
