Shipments of WLAN APs will rise by a 9.4% CAGR over the same period.<br \/>\nThe addressable market for WLAN is being enlarged alongside the introduction of new technologies. \u00abFor example, Wi-Fi 7 will help deliver the deterministic low latency required for mission-critical industrial automation applications and emerging real-time technologies such as AR\/VR. Again, WLAN\u2019s convergence with 5G in private networks will allow the combined technologies to be deployed in environments in which wireless was previously unable to service, raising the addressable market for both technologies,\u201d says Andrew Spivey, Senior Analyst at ABI Research. \u201cTo exploit these additional opportunities, vendors need to foster partnerships and build competencies for new applications and demonstrate to consumers that their WLAN solutions can satisfy the requirements of these new use cases.\u201d<br \/>\nStrong growth in WLAN shipments and revenues was experienced by all major vendors in 2022. Leading vendor Cisco\u2019s double-digit expansion was driven by demand for Wi-Fi 6 and 6E offerings, while increased WLAN shipments from HPE Aruba Networks enabled the company to record robust growth in its intelligent edge division. Extreme Networks was bolstered by multiple large-scale deployments, and ALE\u2019s Stellar AP product line underwent over 100% growth, spurred by Wi-Fi 6 demand and the transition to hybrid working.<br \/>\nThroughout the recent surge in WLAN shipments, vendor market shares remained relatively consistent, although new market developments could significantly disrupt inter-vendor dynamics. As organizations increasingly favor OpEx models in the form of as-a-Service delivery over CapEx-heavy upfront investments, vendors who can successfully implement HaaS across their entire portfolio will have the edge. The emergence of new value-added services and the evolution of WLAN Network Management are also poised to transform the market. Generative AI, for example, will streamline and simplify the way administrators manage the network and receive insights. At the same time, tighter integrations with third-party platforms will bring expanded real-time network data exploration, enabling more targeted and actionable network analytics and insights. \u201cSuccessfully incorporating these latest software developments into platforms will become increasingly important going forward,\u201d Spivey advises.<br \/>\nWhile larger vendors, with their market-dominant position and extensive pool of resources, may appear best placed to exploit the opportunities these new services offer, they also move slower and struggle to integrate new technologies seamlessly into legacy platforms. \u201cOn the other hand, smaller vendors are often nimbler and better equipped to incorporate new features consistently across their entire portfolio. They also have the advantage of greater focus and network management simplicity. For this reason, the emergence of new services provides smaller vendors a golden opportunity to eat into the market shares of their larger peers,\u201d Spivey concludes.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><em>Above, Andrew Spivey, Senior Analyst at ABI Research \/ Image credited to ABI Research<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Continued Wi-Fi and wireless technology innovation will enable the expansion of enterprise WLAN into new verticals and innovative use cases and open lucrative market opportunities in the process On the back of key advancements, including Wi-Fi 7, growing collaboration with 5G private networks, and increased utilization of the 6 GHz spectrum, ABI Research, a global &hellip; <\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/?p=13088\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> \u00abWi-Fi 7, 6 GHz spectrum, and 5G convergence to propel enterprise WLAN market to US$14.5 billion revenue by 2028\u00bb<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13089,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[31],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13088"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13088"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13088\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13090,"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13088\/revisions\/13090"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/13089"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13088"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13088"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/telecomkh.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13088"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
