WiMAX Moves from Professional to Volume Deployment

Posted by Ken Cheung in Wireless on Friday, May 5, 2006

According to Future Horizons, wireless broadband access via WiMAX is moving away from professional-only batch-produced propriety equipment to a mixture of volume professional and consumer units with its implications for low-cost mass production.

Future Horizons predicts a unit growth rate of 87.6% per annum for subscriber equipment over the 2005-2010 period to 96 million units in 2010. This high growth in units will be reflected in a very strong growth of semiconductor sales in this sector as the market accelerates.
