A new Infonetics research report on second-quarter carrier VoIP spending shows some signs of life for the industry, which has been battered due to reduced carrier capex amid the recession. Global carrier VoIP equipment revenues totaled $598 million in Q2, and while the market segment revenues were off 32 percent year-over-year, they did show slight improvement of 0.8 percent from Q1.

Diane Myers, author of the report and directing analyst for carrier VoIP for Infonetics, said voice application servers, media gateways and Class 5 softswitches were the strongest equipment categories for the quarter, while EMEA and North America showed the best regional sales performance.

The report said AudioCodes, Cisco, MetaSwitch, Sonus, Alca-Lu, Italtel, Broadsoft, and Nortel (hard to believe, but true) stood out with strong revenue increases for the quarter.
