Thursday, February 6, 2025
Broadband Networks Evolving, Incorporating AI/ML and Convergence while Transitioning to XGS-PON and Wi-Fi 7 Technologies
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Jan. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a newly published report by Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, security, networks, and data center industries, predicts that the Broadband Access Equipment market is forecasted to grow 0.8 percent on average for the next five years (2024-2029), with total revenue expected to peak in 2028, as cable operators and fiber ISPs complete major DOCSIS 4.0 and rural broadband expansion projects.
"Quietly, broadband access networks are evolving into large-scale edge compute platforms, with the ability to enable service convergence far more quickly and easily than ever before," said Jeff Heynen, Vice President at Dell'Oro Group. "This evolution means that the revenue mix for broadband equipment is shifting over the next five years, with spending on traditional hardware and software now being supplemented by spending on AI and machine learning tools to facilitate convergence and service reliability," added Heynen.
Additional highlights from the Broadband Access & Home Networking 5-Year January 2025 Forecast Report:
-- PON equipment revenue is expected to grow from $10.5 B in 2024 to $12.1
B in 2029, driven largely by XGS-PON deployments in North America, EMEA,
and CALA, as well as FTTR (Fiber to the Room) and 50 Gbps deployments in
China.
-- Revenue for Cable Distributed Access Equipment (Virtual CCAP, Remote PHY
Devices, Remote MACPHY Devices, and Remote OLTs) is expected to peak at
$1.3 B in 2028, as operators continue their DOCSIS 4.0 and early fiber
deployments.
-- Revenue for Fixed Wireless CPE is expected to peak in 2025 and 2026,
dominated by shipments of 5G sub-6 GHz and a growing number of 5G
millimeter wave units.
-- Revenue for Wi-Fi 7 residential routers and broadband CPE with WLAN will
reach $8.9 B by 2029, as the technology is rapidly adopted by consumers
and service providers alike.
