Infonetics: China bounces back in distributed antenna system (DAS) market, U.S. sees double-digit growth


(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) CAMPBELL, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/28/14 -- Market research firm Infonetics Research released excerpts from its latest DAS Equipment report, which tracks and forecasts distributed antenna system (DAS) equipment units and revenue by geographic region and category (in-building, outdoor, LTE, multi-standard).



ANALYST NOTE"In the distributed antenna system market, it's a U.S. versus China game. Last year, China was marked by an abyssal slowdown in DAS spending as it was preparing for massive LTE deployments, but the first half of 2014 saw a slight pickup that suggests the shift from LTE coverage buildout to coverage and capacity enhancement is starting," says Stéphane Téral, principal analyst for mobile infrastructure and carrier economics at Infonetics Research.

Continues Téral: "The U.S., on the other hand, has reached its DAS spending peak for LTE coverage and capacity enhancement, posting double-digit year-over-year growth during the first half of 2014 and signaling an upcoming slowdown."
