Cable Companies Earn More Than 25% of Metro Ethernet Revenues

U.S. cable TV operators earn more than 25 percent of Ethernect access revenues overall, and will earn perhaps as much as 33 percent in the near future, Heavy Reading says. 

Wholesale Ethernet is substantially outgrowing retail, expanding as a share of MSO Ethernet from 10 to more than 20 percent, including resold telco capacity and traffic delivered on their own facilities.

As you would guess, cable operators also are moving up the stack by adding more application-based, vertically-oriented services, expanding further into the enterprise space and downward into the smaller business segments.

By 2016, according to Insight Research, U.S. enterprises and consumers will spend over $44 billion on carrier Ethernet services, growing the market from $4 billion in 2011 to nearly $11.1 billion by 2016.
