ZigBee Standards Will Be Used in Over 80% of 802.15.4 Chipset Shipments in 2020

ELECTRONICS.CA PUBLICATIONS, the electronics industry market research and knowledge network, announces the availability of a new report entitled “ZigBee Lights Up the Internet of Things: A Market Dynamics Report“.  New research finds that annual shipments of IEEE 802.15.4 chipsets nearly doubled last year and will increase by 550% over the next five years. In 2020, ZigBee standards will be used in 8 out of 10 of the 802.15.4 chipset shipments.

“ZigBee has always provided flexibility for developers and now ZigBee is rapidly becoming the consumer technology of choice for emerging smart home products,” says Mareca Hatler, ON World’s research director. “This trend is expected to accelerate as ZigBee 3.0 unifies its application profiles and the Thread Group provides a standards based IP addressable wireless mesh network layer.”

Annual unit shipments for ZigBee/802.15.4 nearly doubled last year and will increase by 550% over the next five years. In addition to ZigBee PRO, the most widely adopted wireless mesh network protocol, the ZigBee Alliance also certifies ZigBee RF4CE devices for simple, ultra-low power remote controls and the ZigBee Alliance is also working on a new specification for outdoor wireless mesh networking using IEEE 802.15.4g and 6LoWPAN.

The Thread specification that is scheduled to be released this July will simplify and streamline the creation of smart home IoT products and services. Through a collaboration with the ZigBee Alliance, the Thread Group benefits from over a decade of development of application profiles and ZigBee 3.0 in particular. ZigBee 3.0 is scheduled to be completed this year and will unify commonly used ZigBee profiles such as ZigBee Light Link, ZigBee Home Automation, ZigBee Health Care and others into a single application profile suite, significantly streamlining product development and interoperability among vendors.

Applications for the IoT continue to expand with a growing number of IoT cloud providers such as Ayla Networks, Arrayent, GreenWave Systems, Helium, Kitu Systems, SmartThings (Samsung) and Wink (Quirky) that have recently raised $500 million in venture or equity investments.

By 2020, this new study projects that over 80% of IEEE 802.15.4 annual shipments will use a ZigBee standard. However, ZigBee is facing intensifying competition from low power variants of WiFi and Bluetooth Smart that are gaining tremendous momentum currently from the mobile, IT and consumer electronics industries. Within the next five years, the study projects that annual wireless sensor network chipset shipments will exceed 2 billion.

This report analyzes the evolving market forces, technology advances and competitive dynamics for 22 unique ZigBee markets and provides 5-year forecasts for 802.15.4/ZigBee and competing alternatives including WiFi, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, EnOcean and others. It also includes key findings from a recently completed survey with 1,000+ consumers and an extensive analysis of hundreds of ZigBee/802.15.4 products and services.

ZigBee Standards Will Be Used in Over 80% of 802.15.4 Chipset Shipments in 2020

ZigBee and IEEE 802.15.4 Enabling the Internet of Things

ELECTRONICS.CA PUBLICATIONS, the electronics industry market research and knowledge network, announces the availability of a new report entitled “802.15.4 & ZigBee: Enabling the Internet of Things“.  According to this report, ZigBee and IEEE 802.15.4 will play a dominant role in the fixed Wireless Sensor Network WSN market that is set to reach 1 billion annual unit shipments within the next five years.

Smart Energy continues to be the primary driver for the majority of fixed WSN markets.  Between 2012 and 2018, ZigBee and 802.15.4 based systems will make up 43% of the wireless chipsets used for smart metering, home and building energy management, distributed energy resources as well as lighting controls.

While mobile sensing markets will increase the fastest over the next five years, fixed WSN markets have a larger number of applications, higher profit margins and significant opportunities for services revenues. In fact, revenues from ZigBee/15.4 devices and associated equipment will reach $50 billion within the next few years.

ZigBee market outlook for the smart home is brighter now that the Connected Lighting Alliance has chosen ZigBee Light Link as the standard for residential lighting. In particular, ZigBee Light Link has become the preferred communications technology for residential LED lighting. Over the past year, consumer adoption of wireless LED light bulbs increased by 270% and ZigBee-enabled bulbs made up the largest portion of the sales.

In 2018, there will be 1 billion annual WSN chipsets shipped worldwide for fixed WSN markets. Although ZigBee is facing increasing competition from Bluetooth and WiFi, it will make up the majority of the shipments at this time.

In this report– our 10th edition– we analyze the evolving market forces, technology advances and competitive dynamics for 22 unique WSN markets and provide 5-year forecasts for 802.15.4/ZigBee and competing alternatives including WiFi, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, EnOcean, ANT and others.

ZigBee and IEEE 802.15.4 Enabling the Internet of Things

ZigBee and IEEE 802.15.4 Enabling the Internet of Things

ELECTRONICS.CA PUBLICATIONS, the electronics industry market research and knowledge network, announces the availability of a new report entitled “802.15.4 & ZigBee: Enabling the Internet of Things“.  According to this report, ZigBee and IEEE 802.15.4 will play a dominant role in the fixed Wireless Sensor Network WSN market that is set to reach 1 billion annual unit shipments within the next five years.

Smart Energy continues to be the primary driver for the majority of fixed WSN markets.  Between 2012 and 2018, ZigBee and 802.15.4 based systems will make up 43% of the wireless chipsets used for smart metering, home and building energy management, distributed energy resources as well as lighting controls.

While mobile sensing markets will increase the fastest over the next five years, fixed WSN markets have a larger number of applications, higher profit margins and significant opportunities for services revenues. In fact, revenues from ZigBee/15.4 devices and associated equipment will reach $50 billion within the next few years.

ZigBee market outlook for the smart home is brighter now that the Connected Lighting Alliance has chosen ZigBee Light Link as the standard for residential lighting. In particular, ZigBee Light Link has become the preferred communications technology for residential LED lighting. Over the past year, consumer adoption of wireless LED light bulbs increased by 270% and ZigBee-enabled bulbs made up the largest portion of the sales.

In 2018, there will be 1 billion annual WSN chipsets shipped worldwide for fixed WSN markets. Although ZigBee is facing increasing competition from Bluetooth and WiFi, it will make up the majority of the shipments at this time.

In this report– our 10th edition– we analyze the evolving market forces, technology advances and competitive dynamics for 22 unique WSN markets and provide 5-year forecasts for 802.15.4/ZigBee and competing alternatives including WiFi, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, EnOcean, ANT and others.
