Cellular M2M Service Provider Markets

Differences Emerge between MNOs, MVNOs, and MMOs



This study analyses the market for cellular M2M services, with particular emphasis on the M2M communication provider competitive landscape and key market issues facing these communication providers. Eight key players in the market are profiled and analyzed: Aeris, Jasper Wireless, KORE Telematics, Orange Business Services, Qualcomm Wireless Business Solutions (QWBS), Rogers Wireless, Sprint, and Wyless. Estimates for the installed base of cellular M2M service subscribers – active nodes – are provided, along with service revenue calculated on a connectivity ARPU basis. Five year forecasts for the period from 2007 through 2012 are also included. These estimates and forecasts are segmented by region, application, and air interface standard. It is ABI Research’s expectation that the installed base of cellular M2M subscribers will rise from approximately 27 million in 2006 to roughly 128 million in 2012. In addition, we believe that M2M services revenue will rise from approximately
