Digital Cable STB Revenue to Reach $20 Million in 2013

Worldwide digital cable set-top box (STB) unit shipments grew by 10% in 2012 and are expected to continue to increase modestly in 2013 with revenues of nearly $20 million. Satellite STBs continue to show strength as new providers launch in regions like Eastern Europe, Latin America and the Middle East/Africa. Those unit shipments reached nearly 109 million in 2012, up from about 100 million in 2011.

Demand for IP STBs continued solidly in 2012, MRG expects unit shipments to flatten out and even marginally decrease as the IPTV market matures in 2013 and 2014.
