Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6nst5f/global_signaling) has announced the addition of the "Global Signaling Equipment Market 2011-2015" report to their offering.

One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increasing adoption of data-intensive applications. The Global Signaling Equipment market has also been witnessing the increasing demand for integrated signaling equipment. However, the decreasing product lifecycle of signaling equipment could pose a challenge to the growth of this market.

The key vendors dominating this market space are Tekelec Inc., Alcatel-Lucent S.A., Huawei Investment and Holding Co. Ltd., and Nokia Siemens Networks Oy.

The other vendors mentioned in the report are Cisco Systems Inc., and LG-Ericsson Co. Ltd.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio's Networking team said: ''Telecom operators are demanding a single platform that can support multiple applications. Therefore, signaling equipment vendors are offering integrated diameter signaling routers (DSR) as next-generation network (NGN) platforms for better network optimization. DSR integrates various applications such as performance management solutions and performance intelligence centers to analyze network, subscriber, and service activities. DSR creates signaling architecture that reduces the cost and complexity of the core network. It provides network intelligence that increases network efficiency in a cost-effective manner, further boosting the Global Signaling Equipment market.''

According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the increasing adoption of data-intensive applications. Currently, a large number of telecom operators are offering integrated communication services, and the adoption of data-intensive applications is increasing. Thus, the use of signaling equipment to control communication systems is also increasing significantly.

Further, the report reveals that the decreasing product lifecycle of signaling equipment is posing a major challenge to the global signaling equipment providers.
