By Paula Musich August 16, 2006 eweek.com
The sale of IP phones went through the roof over the last year, and especially in the second quarter, with shipments growing 53 percent over the last year and 23.8 percent from the first to the second quarter, according to report just released by Synergy Research Group. The research report, which looked at the worldwide market for enterprise IP telephony equipment, pegged growth for the entire market at 30.4 percent year-to-year and 13.7 percent from the first to the second quarter of 2006.
Worldwide revenue for enterprise IP telephony, which includes LAN telephony, pure IP telephony, the converged market and IP phones, approached $1.2 billion. "This quarter was a huge spike just in itself," said SRG co-analyst Ryan Olsen in Reno, Nev. "Last year we had a pretty good spike later in the year, but this absolutely just jumped out. It's an extremely great quarter for IP phones both sequentially and year over year."
