The 25 most powerful people in networking

John Roth, president, CEO and vice chairman,
Nortel Networks

J. RothWhen it comes to the enterprise market, Nortel Networks is biting at Cisco's heels like a red ant. Under John Roth's visionary leadership, Nortel has assumed the No. 2 router maker position. Today, Nortel skims one-third of its revenue from data products, and Roth wants to grow that figure 50% within three years.

To do that, Nortel is aggressively beefing up its IP product offerings and spewing out numerous new products in that hallowed area called convergence.

Indeed, Roth has committed 60% of Nortel's $2.5 billion research and development budget to IP technology. On average, the company files three patent applications per day.

Roth is further raising the stakes on the lucrative $17 billion worldwide router market. In November, Nortel announced a bitingly competitive move to slash prices on its access routers so they cost half the list price of Cisco's. If low price won't get them, then the old PC-compatible marketing ploy just might. At the same time, Nortel issued licenses to more than 75 OEMs for its Open IP Environment routing and IP software. The software lets companies Internet-enable everything from servers and network processors to Internet appliances. The goal, of course, is to create a commodity enterprise router market. It's Macs vs. IBMs all over again.

Still, Nortel is far from a one-product company. It remains the No. 2 phone equipment maker in North America and is pounding on the doors of the wireless Internet, optical networking and computer security markets.

But Roth's most significant goal is to remake Nortel's image as a communications equipment supplier into that marketing marvel known as an Internet company.

To that end, Nortel is banging on the door of the application service provider (ASP) market. Earlier this month, it announced an agreement with Hewlett-Packard and several other ASP-wannabe vendors to provide a one-stop shop for ASP products. One call to Nortel, and it'll deliver an entire multivendor ASP architecture to an ISP's door.

For the enterprise, Roth will bundle its enterprise router, wireless Internet devices and call center products, and declare itself your e-business source.

Roth clearly wants to be the "I" of the enterprise's Internet-related purchasing.
