DWDM filter module consumption to reach $3.8 billion by 2010

June 14, 2001
According to a new study from ElectroniCast, the global market consumption of DWDM Filter Modules was $406 million in 2000.

According to a new study from ElectroniCast, the global market consumption of DWDM Filter Modules was $406 million in 2000. North American communication networks in 2000 consumed 69 percent of DWDM filter module value. The North American share will drop to 56.9 percent but grow in value to $2.20 billion over the forecast period. The Japan/Pacific Rim and Rest of World shares will climb rapidly, to a combined 22.7 percent of the market by 2010.

According to Stephen Montgomery, the president of ElectroniCast, "Thin-film technology held the highest global consumption value, in 2000. Waveguide array gratings were second in relative market share. As the requirement for more channels per module increases each year, thin-film will demonstrate a smaller market share. Conversely, array waveguide gratings [AWGs] are more accommodating to higher channel counts; therefore, AWGs will lead the marketplace by 2010."

The "Dense WDM Filter Module Global Market Forecast" is available for $9,850. Call Theresa Hosking, director of marketing/sales at 650/343-1398; fax 650/343-1698, website: www.electronicast.com; e-mail: [email protected], to receive more detailed information.
