Video Services Push Telco to Upgrade DSL

Dell'Oro Group announced that it forecasts revenue from build-outs of high-speed VDSL and PON networks will almost double between 2007 to 2012.

During the same timeframe, revenue from slower-speed ADSL equipment is expected to fall by more than 40 percent. The forecast includes revenues from sales of both access concentrators and customer premises equipment.

Their findings from the five-year forecast of the Access market that indicate worldwide sales of Cable, DSL, and PON equipment, will grow from $9.6 billion in 2007 to $9.7 billion in 2008 before gradually falling back to $8.9 billion in 2012.

"New revenue opportunities, primarily video services, is driving many telecom service providers in established regions to plan network upgrades to high-speed VDSL and PON technology," said Tam Dell'Oro, Founder of Dell'OroGroup.

"Manufacturers still have good opportunities to sell ADSL equipment, especially in emerging regions where subscriber growth is strongest. However, we expect that ADSL revenue will fall each year because demand from emerging regions will not be enough to offset lower demand in established regions where broadband saturation is resulting in declining subscriber additions," added Dell'Oro.

AI-Driven Data Center Liquid Cooling Demand

The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) and hyperscale cloud computing is fundamentally reshaping data center infrastructure, and liquid cooling is emerging as an indispensable solution. As traditional air-cooled systems reach their physical limits, the IT industry is under pressure to adopt more efficient thermal management strategies to meet growing demands, while complying with stringent environmental regulations. Liquid Cooling Market Development The latest ABI Research analysis reveals momentum in liquid cooling adoption. Installations are forecast to quadruple between 2023 and 2030. The market will reach $3.7 billion in value by the decade's end, with a CAGR of 22 percent. The urgency behind these numbers becomes clear when examining energy metrics: liquid cooling systems demonstrate 40 percent greater energy efficiency when compared to conventional air-cooling architectures, while simultaneously enabling ~300-500 percent increases in computational density per rac...
