"The capacity demands of 5G and converged access are driving radical change in the transport networks ecosystem."
The transport networks market is changing and being disrupted in response to new broadband demand patterns and new network architecture. We forecast that operator spending on transport networks will reach USD41.5 billion in 2023. The vendors that are successful in this growing market will be those that identify the biggest growth segments while understanding how spending will shift to new players and business models.
