The high demand for data and lower latency from applications such as video streaming, financial trading, Internet of Things (IoT), connected cars, Big Data, and data analytics is requiring advancements in network devices and infrastructure.
The Test and Measurement (T&M) market in communications is thus, driven by the need to test and validate the performance of the communication infrastructure throughout various phases of the product lifecycle, across different end users. While the common goal is to provide enhanced customer experience, different end users—Network Equipment Manufacturers (NEMs), service providers, chipset suppliers, and enterprises have different objectives to achieve. Hence, the demand for test and measurement solutions vary significantly from each end user. Even within each end-user segment, the requirement for T&M solutions varies based on the application—Research and Development (R&D), manufacturing, installation, and maintenance and monitoring—as development and deployment demands vary. This research service, focuses on understanding the market dynamics from an end-user perspective.
