| Home Network IC 2004: Media Networking Boosts A
Strong Market |
 |
The home networking market has started the transition
from being primarily data oriented to one where multimedia is the main focus of
new product development, marketers and even end-users. Nowhere is this more evident
than in the home networking silicon market, where not only are the PHY and communication
processor segments expected to perform well throughout the next five years, but
the newer networked media processor market will become a $700 million market,
more than double that of what it is in 2004.
The overall market for home networking semiconductors will grow 12% per
year from 2004 to 2008, moving from $1.34 billion in the beginning of the forecast
to $2.32 billion at the end of the forecast. This growth will come despite decreasing
prices on a per unit basis, as the average price for a home networking IC will
decline from $8 in 2004 to $5 in 2008. This increase in revenues despite downward
pressure on pricing shows how the overall unit momentum throughout the forecast
period will create a “rising tide” for the connected home silicon market (the
market will go from 174 million ICs shipped in 2004 to 458 million in 2008).
This report includes forecasts for home networking ICs and revenues, including
separate forecasts for the PHY, comm processor and networked media processor.
The PHY forecasts are broken down between Ethernet, WLAN, MoCA, HomePlug, HomePNA,
and 1394. WLAN forecasts are broken down into different protocols, including 802.11n.
