The High End Router market declined 8% y-o-y in H2 2023, following an abrupt surge in equipment deliveries in the first half of the year, says Dell’Oro Group.
“The disruptions caused by component shortages and supply chain bottlenecks that started over two years ago are still occurring,” says Dell’Oro vp P Jimmy Yu, “once supply freed up, router manufacturers were able to fulfill backlogged orders at a faster pace, driving High End Router revenue up 12 percent year-over-year in the first half of 2023. However, this turned into extra inventory at customer sites, causing them to rationalize future new orders. We believe it may be another two quarters before inventory levels return to normal levels at these service providers,” added Yu.
The High End Router market reached nearly $13 billion in 2023. The top three vendors by revenue share were Cisco, Huawei, and Nokia. The only vendors to gain more than one percentage point of market share were Cisco and Huawei.
Core Router revenue grew 14 percent in 2023. The top three vendors by revenue share were Cisco, Huawei, and Juniper. Cisco gained nearly 6 percentage points of market share and was the only vendor to gain market share in the year.
Edge Router and Aggregation Switch revenue was unchanged from the year ago period.
