"10 Gbps controllers have been placed on motherboards of stand-alone servers as early as the second half of 2010, but they will not drive down demand for 10 Gbps stand-alone adapters," said Sameh Boujelbene, Analyst covering Controller & Adapter market research at Dell'Oro Group. "Based on recent interviews with end users, VARs and server manufacturers, and other compelling factors addressed in the report such as network architecture with designated applications on separate connections, and the increases in the processing and I/O capacity on servers, we forecast that 10 Gbps adapters will continue to be in demand. Furthermore, we also predict that the migration towards 10 Gbps network speeds will not eliminate 1 Gbps, as recent interviews revealed many end-users plan to retain certain server applications on 1 Gbps connections," added Boujelbene.
The report also indicates that copper adapter port shipments are forecast to expand through 2015.
