About This Report

At almost 200 pages and examining the period 2001-2003, NBI/Michael Sone Associates’ Canadian PBX/KTS Market Report, 2003 Edition, is the latest in a series of reports on the PBX/KTS market published by the company since the early 1980s.

In this report, NBI/Michael Sone Associates presents detailed quantitative and qualitative information on the leading private branch exchange (PBX) and key telephone system (KTS) vendors in Canada — 3COM, Alcatel, Avaya, Cisco, Mitel, NEC, Nortel, Panasonic, Siemens and Toshiba.

The report presupposes some familiarity with telecommunications but includes definitions where necessary for clarity. In the interests of providing ever-greater value for the reader, the 2003 Edition continues the evolution of an updated structure introduced in last year's report that stresses trends observed in the Canadian market. While we have retained the comprehensive quantitative vendor profiles, this report also provides detailed qualitative presentations of each company’s product strategy, marketing activities, and distribution capabilities along with an analysis of future expectations of growth within their respective areas.

The report’s 61 Exhibits and Figures and the profiles themselves provide information on system and station shipments and installed base, vertical and regional market analysis, system-size segmentation and distribution channels.

The PBX/KTS industry is currently undergoing major change as IP technology appears poised to revolutionise business telephone systems. We expect the technology to overtake legacy products later in the decade. To this end, this report focuses on the IP products and platforms of the major Canadian CPE manufacturers, both now and what we expect to see over the next few years. Of course, information and a full set of data regarding currently existing legacy products are also included to emphasise that IP telephony has not yet replaced circuit-switched technology, either in the market or the minds of manufacturers and customers. The reader will further note that in many cases leading manufacturers have suggested a gradual IP migration philosophy to prospective customers. In this report, NBI/Michael Sone Associates separates shipments of IP and legacy stations and systems for the reader’s edification.

This report, together with others on the voice mail, unified messaging, ACD, video conferencing and data and Internet networking sectors, comprises the cornerstone of NBI/Michael Sone Associates’ research on the Canadian CPE market. As with all NBI/Michael Sone Associates reports, information has been gathered from primary sources.

Revenues reported at end user levels represent proceeds from the sale of KTS and PBX equipment only. They exclude sales of applications, moves, adds, changes, service and maintenance.
