REDWOOD CITY, Calif. -- A newly published report by Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the networking and telecommunications industries, reveals that worldwide sales of Optical Transport equipment reached $2.3 billion in the second quarter of 2006--the highest quarterly results since the fourth quarter of 2001--primarily on strong WDM sales.
