Cisco sees growth in routing and switching market this year

CISCO Systems (M) Sdn Bhd sees the routing and switching market to remain as a major growth area, contributing between 40% and 50% to its profits this year, said its director of channel operations, Choi Chik Choy. 

“Although the majority of Cisco clients, such as telecommunication companies, are cautious in their expenditure, we do not see this trend affecting the company's profits because there are positive indicators that corporate spending would resume,” he said at a press conference after awarding Cisco's gold partner certification to IBM Malaysia Sdn Bhd in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.
