Standards Lag Service Provider IoT Opportunities, According to ABI Research
Business Wire - Tue Jun 03, 9:00AM CDT
Home security and home automation represent opportunity for pay TV operators looking to grow in saturating market conditions - in fact nearly 30% of North American households are expected to have a managed smart home automation system installed by 2019. However, selecting technologies and overcoming standard fragmentation continues to represent a sizable investment. Tighter integration between set-top boxes and broadband gateways will not occur until some of these issues are addressed, and these services enter the mainstream. In addition, there are regional variations with North American operators focused on home security and automation that provide peace of mind, while European operators have focused more intently on energy management. In Asia-Pacific, the driving force has been more blended but tended to focus on the smart home and making the user experience more efficient.

Concise Analysis of the Indian Set Top Box Market - Forecasts to 2016
M2 - Fri Mar 14, 4:54AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/f7hv5p/set_top_box) has announced the addition of the "Concise Analysis of the Indian Set Top Box Market - Forecasts to 2016" report to their offering. An increase in the import duty of STBs by 5-6 percent paves a way for the new domestic entrants in this market. With the expected digitalization by the end of 2014, there would be an increase in the demand for STB with more than 50 million units in the next two years. This would enable the domestic vendors to meet the demand by supplying the STBs produced domestically. Overall, domestic vendors could competitively price their STBs by having economies of scale and low manufacturing cost. Hence, the increase in the import duty of STBs in India is expected to have favorable impact on the budding companies that want to make their foothold in the STB market in India. One of the major drivers is the ordinance to mandate the digitalization by TRAI. In December 2012, TRAI notified that by the end of 2014, a complete transition of households from analog to digital system should be done. This regulation has drastically increased the demand for STBs in India. Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the non-price competition. Key Topics Covered: 1. Executive Summary 2. List of Abbreviations 3. Introduction 4. Market Research Methodology 5. Scope of the Report 6. Market Landscape 7. Market Segmentation 8. Top Service Providers of India 9.

Concise Analysis of the International Optical Switching Market
M2 - Thu Mar 06, 4:30AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5g9kjl/global_optical) has announced the addition of the "Concise Analysis of the International Optical Switching Market" report to their offering. One of the main trends witnessed in the Global Optical Switching market is the emergence of ultra-high-capacity optical networks. As a result of the recent deployment of 10G and 40G optical transmission networks, there is an upsurge in the deployment of higher capacities. Many leading vendors such as Alcatel-Lucent, Ciena, and Huawei have announced that they are going a step further in the future by innovating and conducting trials for capacities as large as 400G and 10 Pb per second transmission. Although the capacities are much larger than those required currently, they are considered as future investments because of the huge expansion in the data traffic. According to the report, one of the main factors driving the market is the increase in the high bandwidth requirements across all the geographies. High bandwidth is extremely important for activities such as file downloading, online gaming, IPVOD, and videophone usage. Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the need for high initial investment. High initial investment is required for the replacement of the existing copper lines with fiber-optic cables. Copper lines are less expensive than fiber-optic cables required in optical networks. The report also includes a discussion of the other vendors operating in this market. Key Topics Covered: 1. Executive Summary 2. List of Abbreviations 3. Introduction 4. Market Research Methodology 5. Scope of the Report 6. Market Landscape 7. Geographical Segmentation 8. Key Leading Countries 9. Vendor Landscape 10. Buying Criteria 11. Market Growth Drivers 12.
