REDWOOD CITY, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Aug 28, 2008 -- The global wireless BTS infrastructure market revenues for the top OEMs grew by 14.5% for the second quarter of 2008 to $13.8 billion compared with the second quarter of 2007, according to the latest report from EJL Wireless Research titled "Global Wireless OEM Financial Results Q2 2008."

"The market experienced a growth quarter on a sequential basis of 9.9%, but this was lower than Q2 2007 sequential growth of 17.6%," says founder and President, Earl Lum. The report provides a unique perspective on the global wireless infrastructure revenues for major wireless OEMs including Alcatel-Lucent, Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia Siemens Networks, Nortel Networks, and ZTE.

"With three out of the six OEMs posting year-over-year revenue growth in the first half of 2008 in local currencies, we continue to believe that overall revenue growth for the industry may be more in the mid-single digit range of 5-7% than flattish," says Lum. As Huawei Technologies is the only company not represented in this financial analysis, we believe that the results offer a realistic snapshot for the industry on how the overall market is progressing for 2008.
