Abstract
This research report presents shipment volume and value forecast and recent
quarter review of Taiwanese cable modem shipment volume, shipment value and
ASP, manufacturer volume ranking, shipment by maker, and price trends. This
report also includes shipment volume by technology, function, and solution
provider, as well as further examinations into production locations, shipment
destinations, business types, and customer portfolios. The content of this
report is based on primary data obtained through interviews with cable modem
makers. The report finds that the Taiwanese cable modem industry saw declines
in both shipment volume and value in the second quarter of 2009. Nevertheless,
due to the increasing share of DOCSIS 3.0 product shipments, the decline of
shipment value was relatively moderate compared with that of shipment volume.
E-MTAs still accounted for the largest shipment share among all cable modem
products, followed by two-way data cable modems. It is estimated that the
full-year cable modem shipment volume in 2009 will not be able to reach the
level recorded in the previous year. However, with the recovery of global
economy projected in 2010, shipment volume is forecasted to gradually pick up
in the first half of 2010.
