Abstract
In 2006, 127 million worldwide broadband customer premises equipment (CPE)
units (broadband modems, routers, and residential gateways) shipped, resulting
in an increase of almost 20% over 2005. By 2011, annual CPE revenue will be
dominated by gateways, with gateways garnering almost 55% of the share of
total worldwide revenue.
This report contains analysis of worldwide equipment shipments, home networks,
and 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.
