Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Wireless Gigabit (WiGig) Market (IEEE 802.11ad, 60 GHz, 7Gbps Wi-Fi, Wireless Gigabit Alliance, Access Points, Routers, Residential Gateways, Backhaul Equipment) - Worldwide Forecasts, Business Models, Technology Roadmap and Analysis (2014 - 2019)" report to their offering.
With the advent of the latest home entertainment and computing devices such as HD Television, tablets, PC's and other multimedia digital devices, consumers now have more digital entertainment options than ever before. This growth has instilled the need for faster data transfer and wireless connectivity, thereby enabling instantaneous transfer, display, sharing and streaming of files, across any computing or multimedia devices.
WiGig (802.11ad) - Wireless Gigabit has grown as a standard, to address the wireless mobility trend. It uses the relatively uncluttered 60GHz frequency band to deliver speeds of up to 7Gbps, more than 10 times the speed of the fastest Wi-Fi networks based on IEEE 802.11n. This new standard enables efficient and seamless wireless displays, wireless docking, streaming of high definition media and backup synchronization, with a variety of devices. The major factors driving the market include constant technological innovation and huge cost savings for stakeholders.
The market for Wireless Gigabit (WiGig) will evolve gradually from being a standards-driven one to becoming a function of software development, which would ultimately revolutionize network utilization and become inevitable. Over the next 5 years, WiGig is expected to become pervasive across residential networks, gradually penetrating into telecom and enterprise networks.
This report has segmented the Wireless Gigabit market by type of WiGig Enabled Products: Communication and Computing Devices, Consumer Electronic Devices, and Network Infrastructure devices; and by regions: North America (NA), Asia Pacific (APAC), Europe (EU), Middle East and Africa (MEA), and Latin America (LA).
