Year-over-year
(Q2 2010 to Q2 2011), the market is up 34 percent. Cisco, the #1 vendor,
sequentially increased its videoconferencing and telepresence system revenue 33
percent, and now holds over half the global market share.

For
the first 6 months of 2011, enterprise telepresence and video conferencing
equipment revenue is up 24 percent year-over-year, according to Infonetics
Research.

Infonetics
Research expects a strong double-digit growth in 2011 over 2010.

“Growth
will stay in double-digit territory through at least 2015, thanks to
demographic and communication trends favoring video, increasing acceptance of
video among users, and specific use cases like tele-learning and
tele-medicine,” said Matthias Machowinski, directing analyst for enterprise
networks and video at Infonetics Research.

The
global enterprise video conferencing and telepresence equipment market jumped
21percent to $683 million between the first and second quarters of 2011,
setting a record high for quarterly revenue.

The
enterprise telepresence and video conferencing equipment market will grow to
$5.4 billion by 2015.

Dedicated
multi-purpose room video systems make up over half the enterprise video
equipment market now and will continue to be the biggest revenue-generator
among enterprise video solutions

Meanwhile,
videophones are the fastest-growing segment of the market, albeit the
smallest.  Regionally, the strongest
demand for enterprise video equipment is coming out of North America, China,
India, and Brazil.
