World Broadband Satellite Equipment Markets

The satellite broadband end user terminal equipment market has sputtered to date. As a competing platform to T1, ISDN, DSL, and cable modems, the satellite platform has severely lagged behind its terrestrial counterparts in terms of penetrating business and residential markets worldwide. Because of these drawbacks, satellite solutions for broadband applications are usually considered a niche solution.

Within these niche markets, however, the market is expected to grow at moderate- to-high levels as technological improvements and price decreases lead to end user appeal worldwide. The key technology is the availability of two-way systems, which provide the instant infrastructure advantage that satellite technologies are supposed to deliver. This new generation of satellites will have the capability to provide two-way digital communications. This Frost & Sullivan report will analyze the drivers and restraints in the world broadband satellite equipment markets. This report is the perfect resource for companies that want to take advantage of key market opportunities.

Instant Infrastructure Driving Market

Broadband networks or Internet networks are tantamount to the infrastructure build out of roads, highways, and railways that facilitated commerce in the industrial era. Broadband satellite networks are especially attractive to markets where terrestrial-based infrastructure are inadequate or non-existent. "The prospect of instant global coverage and the wide reach of satellite technology is a major asset for the industry, and the deployment of broadband satellites will provide an instant infrastructure effect to end users," states the author of this report. "Satellite terminals are expected to persist in areas where the 'Digital Divide' need to be bridged. These markets include developing countries as well as the rural and underserved areas of developed countries."

Price and Service Key to Increased Use

The emergence of new service platforms used for the delivery of data and Internet services will help spur the use of new broadband satellite user terminals. "Especially if the price and service quality of satellite-delivered multimedia services become competitive with landline technologies," states the author.

Users of this report who take full advantage of the wealth of information it presents will be best prepared to exploit the potential of this market.
