Carrier IP media server shipments show slight increase in 1Q08

There was an aggregated total shipment of 335 thousand IP media server ports shipped by independent media server makers in 1Q08. Shipments represented a slight increase Q-o-Q, however revenues decreased compared to the previous quarter – perhaps an indication that Average Selling Prices are decreasing in this segment.

Estimated $14.7 million were generated by carrier IP media server products in 1Q08.
North America accounted for over two-thirds of the deployments in 1Q08. Europe had some meaningful deployments. Asia-Pacific was number three in terms of the deployments. CALA sales were negligible during the period.

Radisys was the market share leader in 1Q08.
