Abstract
Based upon the results of our North American broadband survey, the majority of
consumers with a home network that use Wi-Fi are still not very/not at all
familiar with the benefits and differences between 802.11g and 802.11n.
Although this may limit upgrades in the short term, the older Wi-Fi standards
will be discontinued eventually anyway. Other wired technologies that use
coax, phone wiring, and powerline are also beginning to make strides with
telcos deploying telco TV services.
The number of home LAN physical layer interface shipments will surpass 500
million in 2010, and the installed base of home networks will surpass 300
million in 2011.
Global and regional forecasts are provided for home networks, with North
America, Europe, and Asia/Pacific broken down by use of Ethernet, Gigabit
Ethernet, 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and other wired solutions. In
addition, global home network interfaces by physical layer are included, since
the majority of network-enabled devices have both wired and wireless
connectivity options.
