25 and 100 Gbps Ethernet Port Sales Forecasted to Account for 78 Percent of Controller and Adapter Market by 2024, According to Dell'Oro Group

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Feb. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a recently published report by Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for information about the telecommunications, networks, and data center IT industries, sales of 25 and 100 Gbps Ethernet ports are forecasted to account for 78 percent of the Controller and Adapter market by 2024. Smart NICs are projected to capture 23 percent of the market.

"We are projecting 25 Gbps to gradually replace 10 Gbps as the preferred speed for server network connectivity over the next five years," said Baron Fung, Director at Dell'Oro Group. "Meanwhile, 100 Gbps is currently deployed for specialized applications, such as accelerated computing, high performance computing, and storage. However, as the Tier 1 Cloud service providers upgrade their networks from NRZ to PAM-4 SerDes interfaces, transitioning server network connectivity to 100 Gbps and beyond is expected to follow. These higher speeds will ramp during the next several years," continued Fung.

Additional highlights from the Controller and Adapter 5-Year Forecast Report include:

    --  The total controller and adapter market is forecasted to grow at a seven
        percent compound annual rate with 25 and 100 Gbps sales driving most of
        the growth.
    --  The Smart NIC market, which is projected to reach a 25 percent compound
        annual rate, could offer adapter vendors an opportunity to introduce
        innovative new products at higher price points. This, in turn, could
        lower the total cost of ownership in the data center.
