The router market is growing and growing. According to a report published by Dell'Oro Group, the router market recorded the highest quarter-over-quarter growth rate it has experienced in over 4 years.
"Telecommunications service providers are investing heavily on new high-end router technologies to transform their network architectures," said Dell'Oro Group's Principal Analyst of Router research, Shin Umeda.
"At the same time, businesses are purchasing low-end routers at record rates to take advantage of the performance and feature improvements of the latest products," added Umeda.
Global sales of routers reached $2.5 Billion in the second quarter, a growth of 8%. High-end router sales grew as much as 15%. These include models that run for as much as millions of dollars a piece.
Low-end router sales grew by 14%. These include models that sell for as little as five hundred dollars a pop.
