WORLDWIDE BROADBAND MODEM MARKET INCREASES 3%.

Modem User News, October, 2005

The worldwide broadband modem, router, and gateway market grew 3% to $1.3 billion and unit shipments grew 5% to 26.7 million between 1Q05 and 2Q05, according to Infonetics Research's quarterly report, Broadband Modems, Routers, and Gateways. Overall revenue is forecast to grow to $5.4 billion by 2008, fueled by new applications and new speeds.

"Though some broadband CPE will become commoditized, the integration of VoIP, security, home networking, and multimedia capabilities will generate new revenue for CPE products," said Richard Webb, directing analyst at Infonetics Research. "In addition, new flavors of DSL and faster 802.11 wireless speeds will continue to drive CPE replacement purchasing."
