Based on gateways, the market is divided into traditional BNG and vBNG. The traditional BNG accounted for a market share of around 69% and is projected to grow significantly till 2032. The sustained demand for traditional BNGs, rooted in their proven reliability and established infrastructure compatibility, continues to fuel growth. As networks expand and evolve, the need for robust gateway solutions remains paramount in supporting seamless connectivity and service delivery. For instance, in January 2024, T-Mobile and Cisco jointly introduced a 'Connected Workplace' solution utilizing 5G internet. This initiative involves the launch of a traditional gateway, which enhanced T-Mobile's 5G Standalone core. This significantly improves performance metrics, such as speed and latency, enhancing the reliability and efficiency of broadband network connectivity for customers.
Based on end users, the broadband network gateway (BNG) market is categorized into residential and commercial. In 2023, the residential segment will hold around 69% in the overall market. A notable shift in the residential Broadband Network Gateway (BNG) landscape involves the increasing integration of smart home devices. As homes become more connected, gateway solutions are evolving to accommodate the diverse range of IoT devices, facilitating seamless connectivity and management for homeowners. For instance, in August 2023, Verizon unveiled a novel Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) gateway designed for residential internet users. This advanced gateway integrates both modem and router functionalities into a single device. With state-of-the-art Wi-Fi 6E technology and tri-band capabilities, it ensures extensive coverage, accelerated upload speeds, and robust signal strength, enhancing the user experience significantly.
North America holds a market share of over 36% in 2023. In North America, there is a noticeable movement toward the adoption of Broadband Network Gateway (BNG) solutions. This trend reflects a growing preference for high-speed, reliable internet access, proliferating the deployment of advanced Broadband Network Gateways (BNGs) to support FTTH infrastructure. For instance, in December 2023, NT Fiber became the first internet service provider in Texas to deploy Kontron's Iskratel broadband technology, ushering in enhanced internet services across the region. Kontron provides cutting-edge broadband network gateway solutions for advanced optical access, encompassing GPON, XGS-PON, and point-to-point FTTH options. NT Fiber enhances its infrastructure, delivering superior internet services aligned with the increasing demand for high-speed connectivity in the region.
