Abstract
Description
The report provides a new and innovative approach to assessing the industrial
networking market. The major protocols used in industry are derived from the
numbers of units shipped of sixteen major product groups. Assessments are made
for the percentage of products that are network enabled and connected to a
live network. Marketing and technical executives will appreciate a fresh
approach to this important subject which provides an up-to-date, comprehensive
assessment of the worldwide market for industrial networking. All major
protocols are quantified and discussed within the report. Assessments on
transport media, application level and market trends are discussed and
forecasts through to 2013 are provided throughout. The world market is
segmented into EMEA, Americas and Asia Pacific and regional editions of the
report are available. The report is valuable to all manufacturers of products
that either have networking connectivity or to those that are planning to
introduce network enabled products in the future.
The study provides the following:
- The installed base of networked nodes for the main protocols and a
forecast of how this is likely to change by 2013?
- The number of new nodes connected to networks in the years 2007 through to
2013?
- Comments on the main factors driving change?
- Information on the levels in the automation hierarchy (e.g. supervisory,
control and field) and the main protocols are used?
- The number of protocols used with each of sixteen major product groups
used in industrial automation in 2007 and comment on how will this change in
the years through to 2013?
- Market splits by transport medium (copper, fibre-optics and wireless) and
comments on which were used with the main protocols in 2007. Discussion on how
this is likely to change in the years through to 2013?
