Alcatel-Lucent's strong IP routing and emerging software-defined
networking products will meaningfully add to Nokia's wireline
networking offerings when the purchase of Alcatel closes in
1H16. Nokia has limited exposure to cloud and SDN, which are key
investment areas for carriers. Alcatel had a 25.6% revenue share
in edge routing in 2014, according to IDC, and its Nuage SDN and
CloudBand units are popular with customers. Acquiring Alcatel
makes Nokia more competitive with Cisco, Juniper and Huawei.
