The Cignal Approach

Optical and packet transport equipment forms the backbone of the global internet and accounts for over $20B in worldwide capital expenditure each year. The underlying architecture of these networks is changing as cloud operators and traditional service providers blur the lines that divide optical transport and packet switching and routing. These functions are now merging at the hardware and management layer into a single transport function. We structure our market research to provide a comprehensive picture of this market transition.
