| Countries covered: Global The combined broadband CPE market of cable and DSL modems, routers, and residential gateways eked out a global 0.4% unit growth in 2008, rising to 141.8 million unit shipments. Routers fared the best, followed by DSL modems, and then gateways. Cable modems suffered with a single-digit decline. Linksys led in routers and home Wi-Fi aggregators, while Thomson held on to the lead in residential gateways. Motorola increased its lead in the cable modem market. Huawei held on to the number one position in DSL modems, while increasing its share. The most movement in rankings occurred in the home Wi-Fi aggregator segment. Unit growth has generally been slowing, due to slowing global cable and DSL subscriber growth and replacements of two units with one unit (modem and router to a gateway). But the economic downturn took a toll on momentum in 2008. Looking at it with a "glass half full" slant, it was fortunate that there was not a decline in total shipments in 2008. This report examines the broadband CPE annual market shares for 2008 vs. 2007, based on unit shipments. A separate slice for home Wi-Fi aggregators is also presented, which overlaps total broadband routers and gateways. |
