International Data Corporation's (IDC's) Worldwide Quarterly Enterprise Networks Tracker, which may interest those seeking IT jobs, revealed that the switch market enjoyed revenue growth of 32.7 per cent over the period.
The study also found that revenue growth of 11 per cent was seen in the routing market, while strong performance was seen across a range of regions and product segments.
Rohit Mehra, director of enterprise communications infrastructure at IDC, said the research from the second quarter 'builds on the performance of the first'.
The expert added: 'The continued adoption of Power over Ethernet and gigabit Ethernet is also being helped by the underlying networking drivers – the growth of voice and video over IP applications, network-attached devices, virtualisation and cloud computing.'
Previous figures published by IDC also suggested that worldwide microprocessor unit shipments and revenues increased in the second quarter of this year.
