Juniper Networks leads with number one position in EMEA service provider routing

Building on a number one market share position measured in revenue achieved in Q3 2005, Juniper Networks achieved a market share of 40% of the non multi-service-WAN switch service provider routing market in Q4 2005 according to Canalys. This category includes the E-, M- and T-series routing platforms from Juniper's portfolio.

'These figures are indicative of Juniper's continued focus and execution in the Service Provider routing infrastructure market,"

said Gert-Jan Schenk, vice president of operations, EMEA for Juniper Networks. "As service providers introduce new services like VoIP, VoD, IPTV and Multi-service VPN's, they are looking to vendors who can deliver products and solutions that can enable an open, agile and customizable network to support the delivery of these advanced network services. The Canalys figures are an excellent proof point that service provider customers in EMEA are increasingly relying on Juniper Networks' leadership in delivering next generation networking solutions to underpin this transition."

"Service providers are looking to triple or quadruple play services to increase their potential subscriber base and grow their revenue," said Andy Buss, Senior Analyst at Canalys. "The demands that these new services will place on the network will increase the complexity of the solutions needed. Service providers are looking to proven equipment from trusted suppliers to reduce their exposure to risk and speed time to market."
