Global General Purpose Test Equipment (GPTE) Market: Overview

Continuous technological developments in communication industry

There has been an increase in demand for GPTE in the communication industry worldwide due to developments in cellular networks and cloud systems. Companies in the communication industry are investing vast amounts in developing networks across the world, due to significant growth in the IP traffic. Most of the growing IP traffic can be attributed to the rise in mobile data traffic. Highly populated nations such as India have been witnessing massive investments from major telecom service providers toward the provision of nationwide 4G service. Developed countries such as the US have already launched 5G connections. This technological developments in communication industry will lead to the expansion of the global GPTE market at a CAGR of almost 5% during the forecast period.

Growing adoption of modular GPTE

One of the biggest challenges for the end-users of GPTE is the continually changing technology and systems, which are growing more complex with time. Along with the changing technology, test and measurement equipment also needs to be upgraded to produce effective testing and measurement results. With the development of modular GPTE, the essential test equipment remains functional, with only a few modules requiring replacement or upgrade. This development is expected to have a positive impact on the overall market growth.
