In the second quarter of 2023, global E-band (E-Band) microwave transmission equipment shipments increased by 77% year-on-year. The two largest suppliers, Huawei and Ericsson, account for the vast majority of this market.
According to a recently released report, in the second quarter of 2023, global E-band (E-Band) microwave transmission equipment shipments increased by 77% year-on-year. The two largest suppliers, Huawei and Ericsson, account for the vast majority of this market.
"Demand for E-band microwave equipment has indeed picked up in the past three quarters. Many such systems are being installed in India as Indian operators rapidly upgrade their 5G networks," said the group vice president who released the report. Deployments and 5G upgrades are happening very fast. Most importantly, the use of E-band is steadily evolving from short spans of less than a kilometer to long spans of more than a few kilometers. For point-to-point calibration applications, longer transmission distances are better with higher One advantage of new radio designs is transmitted power and active antennas.”
Highlights from the "Microwave Transmission and Mobile Backhaul Quarterly Report for the Second Quarter of 2023":
1. The microwave transmission market grew 5% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2023, driven by mobile backhaul and vertical markets. The group's overall market forecast for 2023 remains unchanged, with a projected growth rate of 5%.
2. The E/V band market reached new revenue records during the quarter. Over the past four quarters, revenue was approximately $600 million.
According to a report released by this group on July 25, 2023, in the next five years, the cumulative revenue of global microwave transmission equipment will reach 18 billion US dollars, 12% higher than the revenue in the past five years.
The microwave transmission market is expected to peak in 2025 as the growth rate of 5G deployment is expected to slow down starting next year.
The group said shipments of E-band radios will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 22 percent over the next five years, driven by expanding 5G deployments around the world.
