Product Code: R1-2053Description Advanced Solutions Ease End Users' Connectivity Concerns
As business and home computer users increasingly strive to connect to
computer networks without the restraint of cables, demand for wireless local
area network (WLAN) solutions will continue to rise. Direct sequence spread
spectrum (DSSS) technology will lead market growth by enabling portable
computer users to access network information easily through local access
points. WLANs will allow homes with multiple personal computers to share a
single Internet connection and help mobile employees share data
without a physical network.
This new Frost & Sullivan research analyzes the markets for both DSSS and
frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technologies. It examines key
drivers and restraints, and presents expert forecasts for each market and
major product segment, including adapters, access points, and bridges. With
such a comprehensive guide to the WLAN industry, your company will be
poised to realize its full market potential.
New Product Poised to Dominate Marketplace
"802.11a, a new wireless technology, is expected to change the whole WLAN
landscape due to its higher speed, better performance, improved
reliability, and potential initial price parity," says the study's author. Current
products already face competition from several network technologies,
including Ethernet, HiperLAN 2, HomePNA, Bluetooth, and Powerline.
"End users do not want to adopt a technology or standard only to find that it
will be quickly replaced," says the author. Because 802.11a is faster and newer,
consumers willing to commit to a standard might choose these products over
current WLAN products. This study examines end-user preferences and
evaluates the market potential for competing technologies, enabling you to
better anticipate changes that could lay ahead.
Small office, Home Office (SOHO) Markets Offer Important Opportunities
"The SOHO and small-to-medium enterprise markets are growing rapidly for
WLAN product manufacturers," says the author. Increased broadband Internet
connectivity and the desire to share access across multiple personal
computers is spurring demand.
While the number of SOHOs with multiple PCs continues to grow, many
users are still unaware of WLAN technology. Market participants must
sponsor end-user awareness programs, and reduce prices to capitalize on this
important segment. This research, which pinpoints potential growth areas, can
help your company maximize revenues.
