Worldwide WLAN Semiconductor 2006-2010 Forecast: Industry Report

Worldwide WLAN Semiconductor 2006-2010 Forecast

Product Type: Market Research Report
Published by: IDC
Published: October 2006
Product Code: R104-28486

Description

This IDC study examines the market for components going into 802.11 WLAN client and infrastructure markets. This includes 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, dual-band 802.11a+b/g chipsets, 802.11n, and "pre-n" and "draft-n" components shipping into client-side applications and access point devices. IDC forecasts WLAN semiconductor revenue will increase from $1.5 billion in 2005 to $3.2 billion by 2010, a 17% compound annual growth rate (CAGR).

"The WLAN semiconductor forecast continues to look strong because of new end-market opportunities such as consumer and mobile devices as well as future product tiering for both draft-n and 802.11n within the forecast period." ? Celeste Crystal, senior research analyst, Semiconductors
