Wi-Fi 7 and Wi-Fi 6E Enterprise Wireless LAN Market Forecast Exceeds $4B in the Next Five Years ACCORDING TO 650 GROUP

6/1/2020

 
New Enterprise WLAN Forecast Consistent with Previous Projections for 2020


PORTOLA VALLEY, Calif.  June 1, 2020 —  According to a newly released WLAN market report issued by 650 Group, revenues of the Enterprise Plus Outdoor Wireless LAN market declined 3%.  650 Group expects full-year 2020 revenues to decline, and following that, the market will rebound.  In the next year, Wi-Fi 6E Enterprise Plus Outdoor WLAN Access Points will begin shipping to enterprises.

“While the pandemic has negatively impacted the Enterprise WLAN market, we expect a rebound beginning in the second half of 2020. 650 Group quantitative studies of end-markets, verticals, including hospitality, retailing, and education have seen reductions in demand, while logistics and shipping have seen increases.  We are encouraged that the US FCC has rapidly moved forward with plans to allow indoor 6 GHz unlicensed wireless, which will lead to Enterprise Wi-Fi 6E shipments in the next year,” said Chris DePuy, Technology Analyst and Founder of 650 Group.  

Additionally, we have made the first and market-leading Enterprise-class Wi-Fi 7 Access Point forecast, which leverages the same new spectrum, and builds upon the expected progress of Wi-Fi 6E.  We expect these new Wi-Fi Access Points will see increased demand as companies leverage the new 6 GHz, first in the US, and then in other countries over the coming years, ” continued DePuy.

Cloud-managed Wireless LAN revenues associated with Enterprises experienced significant growth in 2019 and is forecast to continue its growth during the forecast period ending 2024.  The recently published report’s forecast includes the impact of new cloud-managed services that address the health crisis, including proximity tracing and hot zone alerting.  The report includes market share analysis on vendors including Adtran, Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, Allied Telesis, Arista Networks, Cambium Networks, Cisco Systems, Commscope, DasanZhone, Engenius, Everest Networks, Extreme Networks, Fortinet, H3C, Huawei, HPE Aruba, Juniper Networks, Lancom, Samsung, Ubiquiti and others.

802.11ax Will Boost Enterprise Wireless LAN Market, Driven by IoT and Expansion of Cloud Managed Services Highlights 5 Year Forecast; According to 650 Group

7/2/2018

 
Portola Valley, California – July 2, 2018 – A newly released report by 650 Group reveals strong forecasted growth in the Enterprise plus Outdoor Wireless LAN market.  Emerging 802.11ax technology is expected to experience rapid adoption, with a first wave of shipments beginning in 2018, followed by a second wave of products in 2019 and beyond.  Overall, 650 Group expects 802.11ax to represent the majority of shipments by 2022.

“We expect overall growth in the Enterprise-class plus Outdoor WLAN market will be driven by two main trends over the five year horizon,” said Chris DePuy, Founder and Technology Analyst 650 Group.  “First, traditional use of WLAN devices such as computers and mobile devices will continue to drive additional WLAN infrastructure investment at companies mainly in emerging markets for the next few years.  We have already reached a point of WLAN deployment saturation in at companies in developed markets, where such enterprises mainly upgrade existing WLAN installations when improved products hit the market.  Second, beginning in the next 2-3 years, we expect the adoption of IoT devices, including those involving video surveillance, will become significant enough to drive additional spending on WLAN infrastructure to sustain growth in the later years of the forecast.”

By 2022, Enterprise-class plus Outdoor WLAN products are expected to grow to over 35% greater than 2017 levels.  Adding in revenue from cloud-managed WLAN services, which are very popular with branch office deployments and at small businesses, to product-only revenues, 650 Group expects the compounded annual growth rate to increase by over one percentage point.

After a significant slowdown in Enterprise-class plus Outdoor WLAN revenues in China over the past two years, we still expect growth in this region be more powerful than in any of the other six geographic regions that are tracked in the WLAN Infrastructure quarterly and forecast studies conducted by 650 Group. 

Vendors included in the quarterly market share report are Aerohive, Arris/Ruckus Wireless, Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, Cisco, DELL, Extreme Networks, H3C, HPE Aruba, Huawei, Riverbed/Xirrus, Sundray, and Ubiquiti Networks.
