About 11 percent of UK households will have a system in 2014, rising to over 27 percent of households in five years.
Growing Upside for Femtocell and Enterprise Small Cell Market
Worldwide femtocell and enterprise small cell equipment revenue reached $144 million in 1Q14, that’s up 6% from 4Q13. 4G LTE femtocells, the highest ARPU products in the market, are a driving force behind revenue growth, though W-CDMA femtocells still make up the dominant proportion of unit shipments.
4G femtocell and enterprise small cell revenue will climb to $2.3 billion in 2018, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 77 percent from 2013 to 2018.
Digital Media-Oriented Home Network Use Case Scenarios
Wi-Fi adoption within the home is now pervasive, but application usage can vary. According to The Diffusion Group (TDG), 74 percent of Millennials that use a home network describe their use as either ‘equally’ or ‘primarily’ media-oriented, a rate that decreases linearly with increasing age.
“Most interesting is how rapidly this media orientation drops off as the age of the home network user increases,” noted Michael Greeson.
Growing Demand for Fiber-Optic Broadband Services at Home
Telecom and Cable TV broadband service providers have continued to invest in their infrastructure during 2013. Broadband customer premise equipment (CPE) shipments at the end of 2013 were expected to surpass 147 million units, according to ABI Research.
The CPE devices counted include broadband modems, wired routers, and home gateways. Fiber-optic CPE will represent 26 percent of overall broadband CPE shipped in 2014.
