REDWOOD CITY, Calif., May 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the networking and telecommunications industries, announced today that while Carrier IP Telephony market revenues declined 19 percent overall versus the year-ago period, sales of IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Core, Session Border Controller (SBC) and Voice Application Server (VAS) systems grew 10 percent. As Voice over Long Term Evolution (VoLTE) services has emerged as a major driver to the growth of these three products segments, another trend is starting – the virtualization of the telecom core.
