US Telecommunications Private Line Services Revenue to Reach $43 Billion in 2016, says Insight Research Corp.
MOUNTAIN LAKES, N.J., Feb. 2, 2012 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The $39 billion US private line services market is expected to show modest 2.3 percent annual growth over the next five years, as demand for higher bandwidth private lines offsets the shift of lower bandwidth private lines to packet-based services, says a market analysis study from Insight Research.
Private lines are leased point-to-point circuits, which are used for a variety of applications including connecting enterprise locations and backhauling cell towers to mobile switching centers. The new study, "Private Line and Wavelength Services, 2011-2016," provides an in-depth analysis of the US market, including a study of the transition from frame relay/ATM networking to IP networks and the uplift driven by new video and data applications. Private line revenues will increasingly be driven by data-based cloud computing and the demand for apps.
"The insatiable demand for data has kept the private line market relatively steady over the past five years and we expect this trend to continue," says Insight Research Director Fran Caulfield. "The need to backhaul data-intensive 4G wireless services and increased local bandwidth for wireline data and video services will sustain the private line segment for the foreseeable future," Caulfield concluded.
"Private Line and Wavelength Services, 2011-2016" evaluates the total private line market and segments it by local and long distance private line service revenue, wholesale and retail private line revenue, revenue by type of carrier, revenue by T1, T3 or OC-n circuit class, as well as the number of T1, T3, and OC-n private lines sold. Estimates of wavelength revenues are also provided.

New Survey Provides Insights from Users of Over 100 Restaurant Point of Sale Systems
HOUSTON, Texas, Jan. 18, 2012 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- RestaurantOwner (www.RestaurantOwner.com), a membership website for independent restaurant operators, has released, on their website, the results of a detailed survey of their members' experiences with their current point of sale systems. Over 1,500 individual independent operators participated and provided detailed feedback on over 100 different POS systems.
Choosing a point of sale system is considered to be one of the most important decisions any restaurant operator makes. With the average cost of a POS system approaching the $20,000 mark, it's not only an expensive decision but one that affects ongoing restaurant operations in several crucial areas.
A POS system should be one of a restaurant's most important assets by providing cash and inventory controls, improved speed of service, better decision-making and even sales growth opportunities. This survey confirms that if properly chosen, a POS can potentially pay for itself in a matter of months. But conversely, selecting the wrong system or one from the wrong vendor can become a source of operational problems and ongoing frustration for the operator for years to come.
Survey results indicate a strong correlation between the operators' degree of overall satisfaction with their POS system and their relationship with the POS vendor.
"Operators that had good experiences with respect to vendor training and support, be it online or on site, generally reported they were pleased with their POS choice," said Joe Erickson, Vice President of RestaurantOwner.com.
Survey questions captured operator responses regarding their POS system's ease-of-use, programmability and reliability. Participants also rated the quality of vendor training and ongoing support as well as common POS features such as reporting, timekeeping and inventory control.
In addition, many survey participants provided extensive comments about their experiences with the functional aspects of their POS system and the quality of the vendor training and support they received.
For more information on the Restaurant POS Survey results, go to http://www.RestaurantOwner.com/survey.htm .

Worldwide Telecommunications Industry Revenue to Reach $2.7 Trillion by 2017, says Insight Research Corp.
MOUNTAIN LAKES, N.J., Jan. 3, 2012 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The global telecommunications industry continues to expand as spending by consumers and businesses for wireless services fuels industry revenue growth, says a new market analysis report from The Insight Research Corporation. According to the new industry market study, telecommunications services revenue on a worldwide basis will grow from $2.1 trillion in 2012 to $2.7 trillion in 2017 at a combined average growth rate of 5.3 percent.
"The 2012 Telecommunications Industry Review: An Anthology of Market Facts and Forecasts" notes that wireless subscriber growth, particularly in Asia and other emerging markets, will raise wireless revenues by 64 percent from current levels, while wireline revenues show only modest growth.
Nearly all of the growth in both sectors is expected to occur in broadband services, with wireless 3G and 4G broadband services projected to grow at a compounded rate of 24 percent over the forecast period and wireline broadband services projected to grow at a 13 percent compounded rate over the same forecast horizon.
"Despite global economic uncertainty, the telecommunications industry is showing strong revenue growth, which is being driven by consumer Internet usage and business mobility solutions. These are enabling new applications," says Fran Caulfield, Research Director for Insight Research.
"Even amidst so much economic uncertainty, the fact remains that telecommunications is a key factor in economic growth. Telecommunications facilitates socio-economic advancement and is a critical utility for economic development, much like water and energy," Caulfield concluded.
In addition to regional and sector forecasts, the report provides an assessment of the key drivers of this growth, including industry trends, network infrastructure and access technologies, telecom services, and enterprise telecom markets.
