Wireless Mesh Networking Market worth over $8bn by 2026

Published Date: January 31, 2020

Wireless Mesh Networking Market size is anticipated to surpass USD 8 billion by 2026, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc.

The wireless mesh networking market growth is supported by increasing emphasis of enterprises to reduce the infrastructure cost of networking devices. The lack of networking cables and minimal hardware requirements makes wireless mesh networks an attractive option for delivering affordable connectivity. These network systems eliminate the issues of a single point of failure, where the failure of one node shuts down the entire system. In mesh systems, the connectivity is maintained by rerouting signals through functional nodes, bypassing the faulty node and ensuring minimal system downtimes.

Surging demand for managed services to ensure always-on connectivity of wireless mesh networks

The services segment held a wireless mesh networking market share of around 20% in 2019 and is set to witness a growth rate of nearly 20% over the forecast period. Enterprises are increasingly procuring wireless mesh networking services for ensuring the Quality of Service (QoS), scalable capacity, and always-on communication environments without incurring the costs of maintaining a dedicated IT team. Service providers offer the convenience of easy installation and reduced deployment costs, providing post-installation maintenance services.
