5. The IP-PBX Market Shipments of IP lines result from sales of both pure IP and hybrid IP/TDM PBXs. Hybrids currently contribute most of the volume. Continuing a trend, sales of IP PBX lines surged in 2005, while those of TDM lines declined. The number of IP PBX lines shipped worldwide rose 46 percent to 11.5 million in 2005. This year the number will likely reach over 20 million. By contrast, sales of analog and digital TDM PBX lines decreased 2 percent to 37.6 million in 2005, and will decrease 7 percent this year to 35 million. IP shipments were particularly strong in the fourth quarter of last year, rising 52 percent year-on-year to 3.45 million lines Source: DellOro Group, 2006
