WinterGreen Research announces that it has published a new
study DSL Chips: Market Shares, Strategy, and Forecasts, Worldwide, 2013 to
2018. The 2013 study has 232 pages, 72 tables and figures. Worldwide DSL chip
markets continue to achieve significant growth in spite of the dire predictions
of market demise.
According to Susan Eustis, lead author of the study,
"Deutsche Telekom, British Telecom, AT&T, Bell Canada, Century/Qwest
and many other carriers have made clear they will use DSL, not fiber, for the
majority of lines because it's cheaper. Increasingly, that's DSL from a
neighborhood DSLAM (FTTN) with short loops that will soon be capable of 100
megabits through bonding and vectoring. There is plenty of copper wire in the
telecommunications networks that can be used to provide broadband connectivity
from fiber in the neighborhood, DSLAM connectivity to copper wires running into
the home."
The rapid advance of end to end optical broadband networks
continues to threaten to make xDSL obsolete, but copper will never go away,
fiber is too expensive to use it to replace all the copper and the copper works
in many cases and does not need to be replaced. xDSL markets will be strong for
some long time to come as copper remains a transport line.

Copper is everywhere in the telecommunications network. It
is still the primary wireless backbone transport means, meaning it continues to
be vital as new wireless systems continue to expand their markets. It
predominates in the local loop, creating demand for systems that are able to
support high speed signal transport over copper wire.
Both smart phones and tablet devices depend on wire line
backhaul, much of which is copper. As copper goes away, xDSL goes away, but
this is certainly not happening within the forecast period. The development and
growth of the broadband digital subscriber line (DSL) and communications
processing markets is assured as carriers seek to leverage their investment in
copper wire infrastructure. DSL is the way to do that with its support for high
speed communications and video signal transport.
Vendors consider companies that have access to broadband or
communications processing technology as potential competitors. Established
competitors, suppliers of products based on new or emerging technologies, and
customers who choose to develop their own technology.
Deutsche Telekom, British Telecom, AT&T, Bell Canada, Century/Qwest
and many other carriers have made clear they will use DSL, not fiber, for the
majority of lines because it's cheaper. Increasingly, that's DSL from a
neighborhood DSLAM (FTTN) with short loops that will soon be capable of 100
megabits through bonding and vectoring.
Even the DSL customers have a hybrid fiber / copper
connection; it is just the last mile that is copper, hence requiring DSL.
The communications consumer end points worldwide are moving
to 100% wireless smart phones that can connect to the Internet. The
communications infrastructure worldwide will remain wire based to connect the
central office to the base stations, and to provide Internet / IP based
connectivity to the home. The wire based communications infrastructure
worldwide is all moving to fiber so as to handle the increased demand for
bandwidth.
The copper is not efficient for the cable companies because
of the demand for bandwidth to the home that the cable companies are providing.
The copper is not efficient in the wireless backbone connectivity of the
central office to the wireless base stations, and hence there is a priority on
replacing the copper that is there first. The copper from the curb or from the
neighborhood to toe home is efficient; therefore the need for DSL persists.
Worldwide tablet market revenues at $799 million in 2011 are
anticipated to reach $1.7 billion by 2018. DSL chip markets are forecast to
grow year-over-year throughout the forecast period. This is in the context of a
world communications infrastructure that is changing and seeking to leverage
the existing plant to hold down costs. Technology is enabling interaction,
innovation, and sharing of knowledge in new ways. DSL chips promise to bring
significant new broadband for Internet access capability making the Internet
available for increasingly productive, efficient use.
