Beginning
in 2002, data on U.S. sales of routers and switches from
Synergy Research Group, an industry research group, were
introduced as the quarterly indicator for data networking
equipment, which is part of telephone apparatus manufacturing.
Previously, the indicator was constructed from somewhat
less-comprehensive and less-timely information from Gartner
and was extended by data on production-worker hours from
the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

"More important
than the reports is who is on the other end of the phone.
With Synergy, we've found analysts that do their homework
-- they talk with our customers, financial analysts, suppliers,
channels and competitors. They look at both the technology
and business issues. As a result they can supply the colour
we need around the numbers and some candid feedback."
