REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--The broadband access equipment market increased to $19 billion in 2022, up 17 percent year-over-year (Y/Y). Spending on PON equipment continues to fuel the overall market, with revenue for PON OLTs and ONTs reaching $11.7 B for the year.
“The focus on upgrading and expanding broadband access networks was a clear focus for operators worldwide in 2022,” said Jeff Heynen, Vice President with Dell’Oro Group.
He added, “We expect broadband to remain a critical area of investment in 2023, as operators expand their footprint and increase the speeds and services they offer subscribers.”
XGS-PON was a clear driver. Total XGS-PON OLT port shipments exceeded 2 million for the year, reaching 2.3 million worldwide.
Likewise, cable equipment revenues showed strength in 2022. Total cable access concentrator revenue was up 1 percent year over year at $1 billion. Remote PHY devices, Remote OLTs, and Virtual CMTS platforms all recorded significant revenue gains for the year as cable operators continued to expand their DAA and fiber initiatives.
