Description

The Africa VPX SBC Market size was valued at USD 1.0 million in 2024, and is predicted to reach USD 2.1 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 11.9% from 2025 to 2030.

The growth of space programs and aerospace capabilities across various African nations is driving the demand for rugged, high-performance VPX SBCs utilized in satellites, communication systems, avionics, and ground-based control platforms. This surge is contributing to market expansion, with the African Space Industry anticipated to grow by 16.6%, reaching USD 22.64 billion by 2026.

However, limited research and development capabilities for VPX SBCs in the region led to a strong reliance on imports. This dependency escalates costs and lengthens lead times, hindering adoption in cost-sensitive markets and slowing overall market progress.

On the contrary, the advent of 5G and AI-enabled SBCs presents a transformative opportunity for the VPX SBC sector. The high-speed, low-latency requirements of 5G, combined with AI’s ability to enable real-time data analysis and decision-making, position SBCs as critical tools for managing complex tasks. VPX SBCs, known for their robust architecture, are ideally suited for advanced applications across telecommunications, defense, and aerospace. The fusion of 5G and AI technologies paves the way for strong growth in VPX SBCs, as industries seek efficient, high-performance platforms for next-generation innovations. For example, Particle’s launch of Tachyon, the first 5G AI-enabled SBC featuring a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, highlights the rising demand for AI-driven edge solutions. This breakthrough is expected to accelerate interest in VPX SBCs, fostering growth and technological advancements in rugged computing systems.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
