Mobile Backhaul in China: Sizing the Market Opportunity outlines and forecasts the backhaul market in mainland China, both nationally and regionally, and explores and analyzes the current backhaul arrangements and future plans of China's three major operators: China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom. The report also presents a comprehensive analysis of 10 large and small backhaul technology suppliers in mainland China. For a list of companies analyzed in this report, please see: http://img.lightreading.com/uni/pdf/uni1109_companies.pdf "The concurrent arrival of 3G/beyond third generation (B3G) mobile networks, mobile data services, and all-IP networks is putting much higher demand on mobile backhaul," notes Xuefei Peng, research analyst with Unstrung Insider and author of the report. "Operators are seriously considering how to build upgradeable, reliable mobile backhaul installations that can carry different new and old mobile services at lower opex and capex." As one of the fastest growing telecom market in the world, China attracts great attention, Peng says. "In China, 2G and 3G networks will coexist for the foreseeable future, which means mobile backhaul deployment must accommodate a mix of network and technology types," he adds. "3G deployments further raise the heat, while mobile backhaul takes approximately 25 percent of the whole mobile network investment."
