The various categories of Digital Video Headends, and their Gigabit Ethernet components, are on a fast growth track and are expected to surge past $2.6 billion by 2009, reports In-Stat. Compared with indicators from other telecom segments, this segment's projected Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 32.3 percent through 2009 is astounding.

Emerging opportunities in Europe and Asia will spur growth forward.
