Networking Over Coax and Phone Wiring for Service Provider Deployments Worldwide

Description
Service providers are moving toward networking their set-top boxes together for video distribution and whole-home DVR applications. Existing-wire solutions are more cost-effective than Ethernet. Another driver for existing-wire networking is MDU WAN access. For ultimate low cost, semiconductor companies are working on integrating these networking protocols into their set-top box system-on-chip silicon solutions. Many operators will use multiple technologies/protocols and mediums that will co-exist in their in-home deployments, as long as they meet quality and cost objectives. The ITU-T G.hn standardization effort is expected to make a positive impact in terms of standardizing an existing-wire solution for coax, twisted pair, and powerline. It is hoped that this will lead to lower costs and less risk.

We expect that global cumulative chipsets/nodes over coax and phone wiring will see healthy growth from 2007 to 2012, and that North American households with in-home provider network nodes over coax or phone wiring will climb dramatically from 2007-2009.

This report includes a global forecast through 2012 for chipsets/nodes over coax and phone wiring/twisted pair, with breakouts for North American deployments and access applications, and a North American forecast for households with in-home provider network nodes over coax or phone wiring. Also included are results from a structured wiring consumer survey.
