Broadband Boosts Home Networking
Posted: 22nd Oct, 2003 By: MarkJ
The latest research from In-Stat/MDR has shown that the growth of consumer broadband services has helped to fuel a boom in home networking (LAN) around Europe:
The high-tech market research firm predicts that, by the end of 2003, there will be 4.5 million home networks in western Europe, compared to 2.8 million at the end of 2002 - an annual growth rate of almost 60 per cent.
In-Stat/MDR's study, The Western European Home Networking Market, also predicts that there will be more than 15 million home networks in western Europe by the end of 2007.
"In western Europe, the very populous countries of Germany and the UK are demonstrating a healthy uptake in residential broadband," said Gemma Paulo, a senior analyst with In-Stat/MDR.
It's believed that the desire to share a faster connection with other systems around the home is the core reason for such an increase. More @ VNUNet.
