Nortel, an international producer of communications solutions, is on a mission to be the converged voice market leader. And, it looks like they are succeeding.


 
Two new market reports, from research firms Dell’Oro and Infonetics, rank Nortel as the leader in several important IP telephony categories.
 
Infonetics last week published the preliminary version of its latest “Enterprise Telephony Quarterly Worldwide Market Share and Forecasts,” ranking companies according to their share of different market segments.
 
Infonetic’s report ranks Nortel—for YTD 2005—as #1 in the categories shown below.

NA IP PBX (Hybrid and Pure IP) System Market Share

A final version of the Infonetics report—to include analysis and forecasts—will be available Feb. 28.
 
Dell’Oro’s latest IP Telephony Quarterly Report (published Feb. 16), also shows Nortel doing very well. It ranks the company as #1—for YTD 2005—in the categories shown below.
