Improved IMS Sales A ‘Taste Of Things To Come’
"As we predicted, after three years of annual declines, the carrier VoIP and IMS equipment market turned the corner in 2012, growing 9 percent over the previous year due to strong IMS sales," notes Diane Myers, principal analyst for VoIP, UC and IMS at Infonetics Research. "It’s still early days for IMS equipment and applications for LTE, but a handful of operators are placing orders that are positively impacting revenue." Calling the improvement a “taste of what’s to come over the next few years,” the group also says global sales of carrier VoIP and IP IMS gear topped $800 million in 4Q12; standout market leaders include Alcatel-Lucent, BroadSoft, Ericsson, Huawei, Mavenir, Nokia Siemens Networks and ZTE.
