Upcoming Ramps in 800 Gigabit, 1.6 Terabit and 3.2 Terabit Ethernet
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In its most recent series of Data Center Networking Long-Range Forecast Reports, Crehan Research predicts that combined Ethernet switch and NIC market revenue will double within five years to surpass $50 billion. Generative AI is expected to be a major contributor to the growth, with back-end AI Ethernet networking alone increasing eight-fold to comprise over one-third of the total revenue (see accompanying chart).
“This strong predicted growth in data center Ethernet AI networking reflects customer’s plans for significant investment in the area, with numerous one-million-plus AI accelerator clusters now on the horizon,” said Seamus Crehan, president of Crehan Research. “Furthermore, there are many more customers deploying small-size Ethernet clusters, as AI grows to touch every aspect of business.”
Along with the exponential growth in generative AI, the Crehan reports also predict strong successive upcoming ramps in 800 gigabit, 1.6 terabit and 3.2 terabit data center Ethernet networking to handle these workloads. “Not only does generative AI require a lot more network bandwidth than other workloads, but it also requires it at a faster cadence,” Crehan said.
