    "Demand for routers accelerated in 2010 as the race for advanced mobile services in the United Statesand video traffic growth on the Internet drove network operators to increase network capacity," says Shin Umeda, vice president at Dell'Oro Group. "Coming off the economic downturn in 2009, network operators had to spend on strategic projects in order to remain competitive."
