E/V Band Shipments Predicted to Grow 35 Percent
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – May 18, 2023 – According to a recently published report from Dell’Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, security, networks, and data center industries, the Microwave Transmission equipment market is forecast to grow 5 percent in 2023. Demand for E-band systems, which are capable of transmitting data at rates up to 20 Gbps, is expected to dramatically increase this year. E/V Band shipment volumes are predicted to grow 35 percent year-over-year.
“Microwave Transmission equipment demand is in a growth cycle due to 5G,” stated Jimmy Yu, Vice President at Dell’Oro Group. “This growth cycle began in 2021 and is expected to drive increasing demand for microwave equipment for many more years. Among the wireless backhaul technologies, E-band systems are positioned to benefit the most since these products can easily meet the requirements for 5G backhaul,” added Yu.

- Microwave Transmission market growth in 2023 will be driven by higher demand in both mobile backhaul and the Vertical markets.
