Steady Growth in Broadband Modem Market

Published: 2 June 2000 y., Friday
More than 2.2 million digital modems were shipped worldwide in the first 3 months of 2000, according to Cahners In-Stat. Global shipments of ADSL modems increased by 46 percent in Q1 2000 and shipments of cable modems around the world increased by 38 percent during the same period. The Cahners In-Stat report, “Q1 2000 Analog and Digital Modem Market Analysis”, admits that the spread of DSL is being hampered by distance limitations and the need for a technician to help with each installation. Despite these problems, future growth is guaranteed, particularly as line sharing is now common and new companies can enter the residential broadband market and spur competition. Efficient Networks is the leading ADSL modem shipper, with 24.5 percent of the market while Motorola leads the cable modem market, shipping 39 percent of these devices.
