Global Set-Top Box Markets
CATV, DBS, IP, DTT STBs and HD, PVR, MPEG-4
ABI Research’s study of the worldwide STB market provides shipments, pricing, and market revenue for CATV, DBS, IP, and DTT platforms. The report breaks this analysis into feature categories for STBs including: basic, HD-only, PVR-only, and HD/PVR combination boxes. Additionally, it provides market data for cable and IP residential gateways.
The research also examines growth drivers in the STB market, including demand for advanced features, changing regulatory requirements, and the market for hybrid platforms. It offers market share data for all four platforms, as well as aggregate shipments. For CATV, DBS, and IP, market share is also segmented by three regions: Asia-Pacific, Americas, and Europe/Middle East. Next, an analysis of the STB decoder market with shipments – divided into MPEG-2, MPEG-4 DSP, and MPEG-4 SOC – is provided. Finally, the study analyzes the market for middleware associated with STBs.
