Carrier Managed Network Services Forecast, Global, 2025–2030

In this study, Frost & Sullivan focuses on leading global carriers that provide managed network services (MNS). Carrier MNS providers are primarily analyzed on their ability to offer MNS globally, based on their network footprint and the range of network services they provide and manage, including network access services (dedicated internet access, Ethernet, wavelength, and 5G), software-defined networking (SDN), cloud services, and security services. In the last few years, MNS providers have strengthened their network footprint by adding new routes and offering higher bandwidth speeds; they have also partnered with SDN vendors to provide best-of-breed solutions and support a multivendor approach to accommodate varied customer needs. To differentiate service offerings, MNS providers have added private wireless and satellite connectivity to their service portfolios, enhanced customer portal capabilities to deliver improved customer experiences, and integrated AI/GenAI models at the network function level to simplify and streamline network operations. The study presents a market forecast for global carrier MNS from 2024 to 2030. The analysis includes market definition, forecast assumptions, and a global market revenue forecast. Revenues considered for this research include revenues recognized by service providers from their global MNS.
