The Global Industrial Ethernet market will grow at a CAGR of 9% to 2018

The Global Industrial Ethernet market is expected to witness rapid growth during the forecast period due to several emerging trends that could have a positive impact on the market growth. One of the main trends witnessed in this market is the introduction of cost-effective Ethernet devices. The Global Industrial Ethernet market is highly price sensitive and the incresing cost of Ethernet devices is one of the main reasons for end-users changing vendors. Therefore, many vendors have reduced the price of Ethernet devices to remain competitive in the market. The combined effect of the drivers and trends is expected to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period.



One of the major drivers in this market is the need to reduce capital and operational expenses. The use of industrial Ethernet devices in connecting LANs to MANs and WANs helps service providers reduce their capital and operating expenses. Another major factor driving the Global Industrial Ethernet market is the high scalability of Ethernet equipment.

Ethernet network equipment does not have across-the-board standards. This leads to compatibility issues and increases the burden on a network administrator who is responsible for network management. Another major challenge is the increasing dependence on component providers.
