The Worldwide Cable Set Top Box Market: Challenges and Opportunities

Description:
The cable set top box market experienced growth in 2009, once again setting a record for global unit shipments. However, growth slowed significantly last year and 2010 will likely be the first year of negative growth since 2002. Even with the potential for a soft year, the cable set top box market continues to offer solid growth opportunities for cable set top box manufacturers, particularly if they target emerging regional markets or if they focus on high-margin cable set top box product categories.

This report covers the market for cable TV set top boxes, with special emphasis on product manufacturers, market and technology trends, and the semiconductor content of the boxes. It also provides a digital cable set top box Bill of Materials forecast, digital cable set top box manufacturer market shares for 2009, and updates worldwide unit shipment and revenue forecasts through 2014.

Cable Set Top Box Market Shifting to IP Video and IPTV Services

Traditionally, the cable TV industry has relied upon MPEG-based transport to send digital video signals. However, over the past few years interest in Internet Protocol (IP) video has been growing, according to In-Stat (www.in-stat.com). This growth in interest is being fueled primarily for three reason:

- In comparison to MPEG, IP is considered to be a cheaper and more efficient transport technology.
- Many industry insiders consider the integrated DOCSIS cable modem to be an underutilized part of the digital cable set top box.
- The availability of IP video is expanding exponentially, from user-generated content such as YouTube, to telco TV service provider video, to a growing number of “Over the Top” (OTT) types of programming.

"When it comes to IP transport, the cable modem is the perfect conduit of IPTV to the cable TV household,” says Mike Paxton, Principal Analyst. “In fact, cable modems are already performing this task in millions of households, just not through the digital set top box to the TV set. Instead, this IP video is commonly being displayed on the PC.”

New research by In-Stat reveals the following:
- The percentage of cable set top boxes with integrated modems will double from 2009 to 2014.
- Worldwide digital cable set top box unit shipments are forecast to decline by 8% in 2010.
- Regional markets poised for growth include Europe, where the demand for high-definition (HD) cable set top boxes is fueling growth.
- Revenue from digital cable set top boxes in Latin America will approach $200 million by 2014.
- The value of semiconductor components used in cable set top box products was $2.8 billion in 2009, only fractionally higher than in 2008.

Recent research, The Worldwide Cable Set Top Box Market: Challenges and Opportunities covers the worldwide market for cable TV set top boxes, with special emphasis on product manufacturers, market and technology trends, and the semiconductor content of the boxes, including:
- Digital cable set top box Bill of Materials forecast
- 2009 market shares for digital cable set top box manufacturers
