5G and Wi-Fi 6 to Disrupt Communication Protocols of Building Automation Systems

Leave a comment

Emerging wireless technologies and ‘Everything over IP’ approach will have a major impact on the market, finds Frost & Sullivan

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec. 10, 2020 — Frost & Sullivan’s recent analysis, Advancements in Communication Protocols Transforming Building Automation Systems (BAS), finds that open communication protocols help BAS provide better interoperability and connectivity among connected devices than proprietary protocols. Features such as scalability, networking flexibility, and interoperability offer smoother integration of third-party devices to the BAS network. With multiple proprietary communication protocols, the lack of a common communication standard among devices and systems is one of the major challenges hampering the market growth. Non-traditional building automation communication protocols are emerging due to the increase in IoT devices. Therefore, leading players are now working toward developing IP-based communication standards that can work alongside the existing communication standards.


For further information on this analysis, please visit: http://frost.ly/4tn. 

"5G and Wi-Fi 6 will have a major impact on the connectivity of building technologies and are likely to accelerate the growth of IoT. 5G can provide greater accessibility when managing buildings more remotely, and Wi-Fi 6 can provide faster data transfer speed between devices and enhance device performance at low energy utilization standards," said Harikrishnan Manoharan, Senior Research Analyst, TechVision at Frost & Sullivan. "On the other hand, the emergence of IoT in BAS has somewhat blurred the lines of traditional networking standards. Protocols such as LoRaWan, MQTT, OPC-UA, and IQRF remove the need for all the IoT devices to be physically connected to the same network in the BAS and allow limitless connectivity and expansion scope."

Harikrishnan added, "One of the key communication trends in the industry is the ‘Everything over IP’ approach, which provides high levels of standardization, reliability, and availability in building automation communication standards. Leading industry players are, therefore, working toward developing IP-based communication standards that can work alongside the existing communication standards. Initiatives such as Project Connected Home over IP, IP-Blis, and the recent strategic partnership between Cisco and Schneider Electric are a few examples."

Ongoing smart building or green building development initiatives and facility managers focusing on improving the tenant experience are factors driving the adoption of emerging technologies. The following growth opportunities should also be considered:

  • Building automation service providers need to consider IP-based communication standards as they help access multiple channels for communication.
  • BAS suppliers and connected device manufacturers need to increasingly focus on enabling IP as the standardized communication protocol to improve interoperability between devices without complex and expensive gateways.
  • New product innovation and integration should be leveraged to their full potential to introduce efficient products in the market and stay competitive.
  • Considering the possibilities in emerging technologies, building automation suppliers must partner with reputed and reliable system integrators and acquire innovative startups to bring best-in-class solutions to the BAS market.

Advancements in Communication Protocols Transforming Building Automation Systems is the latest addition to Frost & Sullivan’s TechVision research and analyses available through the Frost & Sullivan Leadership Council, which helps organizations identify a continuous flow of growth opportunities to succeed in an unpredictable future.

Frost & Sullivan Reveals Four Key Areas Driving Growth of the Global Gigabit Ethernet Testing Market

Leave a comment

The global Ethernet testing market is expected to reach $2 billion by 2025, with North America leading the way

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 25, 2020 — Frost & Sullivan’s recent analysis, High-Speed 200GbE and 400GbE Powering the Global Gigabit Ethernet Testing Market, finds that the growth of connected devices, incorporation of network virtualization functions, and shift to a multi-tenant cloud infrastructure are key factors driving the global Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) testing market. Compared to other markets, the impact of COVID-19 on the Gigabit Ethernet testing market was mild due to the shift to working from home, which increased the need for Ethernet technologies to ensure adequate bandwidth and security. The market is estimated to reach $2 billion by 2025 from $1.5 billion in 2020, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6%.


For further information on this analysis, please visit: http://frost.ly/4tv

"Courtesy of the mass adoption among hyperscale data centers, the 40/100GbE testing solutions, which are the leading revenue contributors by equipment type, are expected to make up 43.6% of all types of Gigabit Ethernet solutions, generating revenue of $875.8 million by 2025, up from $595.6 million in 2020," said Rohan Joy Thomas, Industry Analyst, Industrial Practice at Frost & Sullivan. "However, the fastest-growing segment by equipment type will be the 200/400GbE testing solutions, which are expected to account for 9.5% of the entire GbE testing revenue by 2025, up from 2.7% in 2020."

Thomas added: "While network equipment manufacturers and service providers will continue to be dominant end-users, enterprises will experience higher growth over the forecast period. North America leads the world in terms of Gigabit Ethernet testing, contributing 49.8% of the revenue generated in 2020, and is expected to continue in 2025. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region, with countries such as China and South Korea making significant headway in deploying 5G services."

From home use to the enterprise, telecom, and data center industries, the use of Ethernet is spread far and wide. Market participants must consider the following key areas driving Gigabit Ethernet technology:

  • Industrial Internet of Things: Given the proliferation of IIoT on the factory floor, industrial Ethernet technologies should experience a high degree of adoption in applications like additive manufacturing, digital twinning, and robotics.
  • Data Centers: With the increase in data from a large number of networked devices and wireless mobile communications, hyperscale data centers, which are the bleeding edge of technology for the data center industry, would eventually require faster Gigabit Ethernet specifications.
  • 5G: Telecom operators deploying 5G require solutions that allow the incorporation of flexible Ethernet (FlexE) and adoption of enhanced Common Public Radio Interface (eCPRI), and offer visibility at the network edge.
  • Automotive Ethernet: Automotive OEMs require a substantial amount of Ethernet technology in their vehicles as they revamp their electrical and electronic (E/E) architecture to meet the demands of sensor positioning, fusion centers, in-vehicle communications, and network security.

High-Speed 200GbE and 400GbE Powering the Global Gigabit Ethernet Testing Market is the latest addition to Frost & Sullivan’s Measurement & Instrumentation research and analyses available through the Frost & Sullivan Leadership Council, which helps organizations identify a continuous flow of growth opportunities to succeed in an unpredictable future.

These measures can achieve end-to-end energy saving and consumption reduction of radio access base stations, and build a green communication network for the benefit of people.

To help the fight on global climate change goals and reduce mobile network operational costs, energy saving has become a major priority and mission of the telecommunications industry. While mobile networks bring near ubiquitous access, convenience and entertainment to the public, as more people use their smartphones for video and other bandwidth hungry services over LTE and 5G, power and energy consumption will rise in the absence of interventions. Wireless access network consumes the largest proportion of energy among the mobile network, and it is regarded as the main factor of energy consumption. As per the white paper data traffic is expected to grow three folds on a per user basis between now and 2025. The deployment and expansion of LTE and 5G networks will inevitably bring greater pressure to network energy consumption.

"Energy is a very large portion of the cost base for the operators, ranging from 20% to 40% of Opex across the industry," said Tim Hatt, Head of Research at GSMA Intelligence. "Things are moving quickly with energy efficient network technologies and a rebalancing of fuel sources towards renewables as more telcos set ambitious glidepaths towards carbon neutral and, eventually, net zero emissions. Energy and climate efforts are now very much front and centre objectives as part of doing business and not mere CSR." 

In recent years, ZTE has submitted over 500 green 5G innovation patent applications. By means of the high-performance chipsets developed by ZTE, leading structural design and intelligent network operation tools, ZTE has been continuously lowering the power consumption of wireless base station equipment.

Based on energy saving functions and AI-based traffic load prediction, ZTE’s 4G and 5G network energy saving solution, PowerPilot, is the industry’s first to introduce AI-powered service-awareness energy saving. By identifying service types and their energy efficiency differences, PowerPilot can evaluate service requirements in real time and support the service with networks of higher energy efficiency to maximize energy efficiency in the entire network.

According to typical network configuration calculations, the energy saved by the PowerPilot solution is twice as much as that of the conventional AI-based energy saving solutions, and it can save up to 20% of energy in a multi-mode network, thereby effectively reducing the operational expenditure. To date, ZTE’s PowerPilot energy-saving solution has been deployed on more than 600,000 sites with over 20 networks worldwide, saving operators more than $1 billion in electricity expenses.

"ZTE has always taken energy saving and consumption reduction as its responsibility, and has been committed to developing innovative technologies," said Jason Tu, ZTE’s technical spokesperson and principle scientist of NFV/SDN products at ZTE. "By increasing technological efficiency and consumption, ZTE has worked with operators to build 5G green networks, to jointly fulfill its promise of ‘Climate Action’ to UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)."
