Abstract
This study contains an assessment of the Western European cable modem equipment market in 2006 and a forecast for 2007 to 2011. Shipment and revenue expectations are provided, by country, for CMTS and cable modems. Cable modems that are integrated in set-top boxes for the purpose of adding interactivity to TV services are excluded.
"As growth rates for the level of broadband subscribers are decreasing, the market for cable modem equipment is increasingly driven by replacement and network upgrades," said Jan Hein Bakkers, research manager at IDC. "VoIP and increasing bandwidth are key accelerators behind this development."
