"Similar to recent quarters, two end-markets drove the enterprise-class WLAN market more rapidly than others: service providers and small & medium businesses. Vendors have responded to this growth by developing new, specially-designed products that are shaping the WLAN infrastructure market," said Chris DePuy, Vice President of Wireless LAN research at Dell'Oro Group. "For service providers, vendors have developed high-capacity controllers, for instance. And now cloud-managed services, controller-less access points, and highly-affordable downloadable or embedded controller software systems have entered the marketplace to serve the needs of these unique customer segments."
In the second quarter, vendors in the combined Enterprise-Class and Outdoor Mesh Nodes category that increased revenue share the most versus the prior quarter on a percentage point basis were Cisco Systems, Hewlett-Packard and Aruba Networks. In the Service Provider WiFi market, three vendors achieved double-digit unit share in the second quarter, Cisco Systems, Hewlett-Packard and Ruckus Wireless.
