An Essential Report on Global Home Networking and Broadband CPE Outlooks Through 2012

Posted on: Monday, 1 September 2008, 06:00 CDT

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/d539b3/global_home_networ) has announced the addition of the "Global Home Networking and Broadband CPE Outlooks Through 2012" report to their offering.

In 2007, 149 million worldwide broadband customer premises equipment (CPE) units (broadband modems, routers, and residential gateways) shipped, resulting in an increase of 15% over 2006. The global installed base of home networks will surpass 200 million by the end of 2008, driven significantly by Asia/Pacific.

This report contains analysis of worldwide equipment shipments, home networks, and international and domestic consumer survey data, as well as detailed forecasting. We examine key worldwide CPE markets for broadband modems, routers, and residential gateways for DSL, cable, Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH), Fixed Wireless Broadband, and Fixed Satellite Broadband. VoIP forecasts are included for DSL, cable, and router equipment. Wired vs. wireless segmentations are included for DSL residential gateways and routers.

Unit and revenue global forecasts are included for home network-equipped devices. Home network-equipped devices are segmented by units and revenue for total NICs/LOM, aggregators, and media networked devices.

Forecasts by region are provided for installed home networks. Each region is broken down by general LAN technology category, with extra segmentations provided for North America. In addition, global home network interfaces by physical layer are also included, since the majority of network-enabled devices have both wired and wireless connectivity options.
