Revenue From Home Networking LAN Hardware & Stationary Network-Capable Consumer Electronics Devices Will Approach $50 Billion in 2010

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c48579) has announced the addition of In-Depth Analysis: Digital Domicile 2006: Is China the Next Gold Mine? to their offering.

Early adopters have added a home network to their broadband modems for primarily sharing Internet access, but have begun to bridge the traditional PC content world and legacy entertainment components. An increasing number of consumer electronics devices will become available that are network capable.

Wireless products are transitioning from 802.11b to 802.11g, and from 802.11g to pre-802.11n products. Alternative wired technologies are beginning to make strides with telcos deploying IPTV services, especially those that can use more than one medium. HomePNA now offers communication over coax as well as phoneline for added flexibility. High-speed powerline, such as HomePlug AV and UPA, also has the capability to offer high throughput over coax, adding to a potential increased opportunity than powerline alone.

The total revenue of equipment derived from home networking LAN hardware and from stationary network-capable consumer electronics devices will approach $50 billion in 2010.

This report contains analysis using consumer survey data, and detailed forecasting. We examine key worldwide market shares for SOHO routers and residential gateways. Forecasts are broken down by units and revenue for NICs/LOM, aggregators (routers, residential gateways, access points), and media networked devices, as well as by LAN interface category. Regional forecasts are provided for installed home networks and installed networks by wired and wireless LAN interface categories.
