New Market Dynamic Brewing as Sierra Wireless Leads M2M Module Revenues but SIMCom Wireless Leads in ShipmentsOYSTER BAY, N.Y., June 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- In the latest update to ABI Research's cellular module vendor market shares report, Sierra Wireless maintained its number one position for cellular module revenues in 2015. This marks the fifth year in a row that the company received this ranking, exceeding its next closest competitor by nearly $175 million. But there is a new leader in cellular module shipments, SIMCom Wireless. "Through aggressive pricing, strength in its China home market, and some large deals for its original design manufacturer business, which makes specialized M2M devices, SIMCom easily moved into the number one spot for 2015 module shipments," says Dan Shey, Managing Director and Vice President at ABI Research. SIMCom's M2M module financial results and product roadmap, as well the module results and roadmaps of competitors ZTE and Neoway, suggest that future shipment leaders will be those who can compete on price. This is because the module technologies that will dominate growth over the next five years are from the latest 3GPP standards for LTE: Cat 1, Cat M1, and Cat M2.
