工业路由器市场:2023年至2028年预测Industrial Routers Market - Forecasts from 2023 to 2028 |
2021年工业路由器市场规模达203.27亿美元。
预计工业路由器市场在预测期内将以稳定的速度成长。工业路由器是一种设备,其主要功能是促进蜂巢式网路上的安全连接和通讯,同时保持对恶劣操作条件的适应能力。此类设备可以是有线或无线的,并且设计用于承受恶劣的环境条件。机器对机器(M2M)连接的扩展和工业自动化的普及是推动工业路由器产业成长的主要驱动力。
工业路由器在工业设置中各种设备、机器和系统之间的机器对机器 (M2M) 连接中发挥重要作用,因为它们为 M2M通讯提供稳定、安全和高效的连接。工业自动化和数数位化趋势正在催生 M2M 连接的激增,并且随着越来越多的机器实现互连,对能够处理不断增加的资料通讯负载的工业路由器的需求不断增长。根据思科年度网路报告,机器对机器(M2M)连线的份额预计将大幅增加,从 2018 年的 33% 到 2023 年增加到 50%。 M2M 连线数量也将激增,到 2023 年将达到 147 亿。
工业路由器用于工业自动化,以促进机器之间高效可靠的通讯,这对于自动化系统的顺利运作至关重要。这些坚固耐用的设备可实现工业网路各个组件之间的安全资料交换,即使在恶劣的环境条件下也能确保稳定的连接。工业自动化的普及是由于追求提高业务效率、减少人为干预、增强安全性和持续投资而推动的。例如,2022年2月,美国钢铁公司和卡内基铸造厂联合宣布战略投资和合作伙伴关係,旨在透过部署先进的机器人和人工智慧来加速製造业工业自动化的扩展。
技术的进步正在创造具有增强功能的工业路由器,例如更快的资料传输速度、更好的安全功能以及在恶劣环境中的坚固性。此外,具有改进的无线连接选项的路由器的开发满足了工业环境中无线通讯日益增长的趋势。例如,2023年4月,移远科技发表了首款高效能5G双卡双模有线无线工业路由器WR300FG。此外,2021 年 2 月,HMS Networks 发表了一款工业 5G 路由器。这款无线路由器 5G 与爱立信 Industry Connect 5G 网路相容,方便用户在每个位置轻鬆存取 5G 连线。
预计亚太地区将在工业路由器市场中占据重要份额,这主要是由于政府和企业巨头旨在加强工业自动化的重大倡议和投资。例如,2022 年 11 月,韩国领先的电子商务公司 Coupang Inc. 宣布计划拨款 40 亿美元用于物流基础设施自动化。此外,2023 年 4 月,技术开发委员会 (TDB) 将任命 IIT 坎普尔孵化的新兴企业帮助机器视觉和机器人系统以及针对製造过程自动化的解决方案商业化,资金为 4,120 万印度卢比。
工业路由器充当工业网路中的重要通讯节点,在控製网路流量方面发挥关键作用,因此经常成为网路攻击的目标。如果这些路由器受到损害,它们将为骇客提供渗透整个工业网路的网关,从而导致潜在的资料外洩、业务中断或破坏。网路攻击的风险和安全漏洞的潜在后果可能会阻止一些组织充分整合此类网路技术,从而抑制工业路由器产业的成长。例如,2023年5月,研究人员在三个不同工业蜂窝路由器製造商的产品中总合发现了11个安全漏洞。攻击者可以透过多种方式利用这些漏洞。
The industrial routers market was valued at US$20.327 billion in 2021.
The industrial routers market is predicted to grow at a constant rate during the forecast period. An industrial router is a device whose primary function is to facilitate secured connectivity and communication over a cellular network, all while maintaining resilience against challenging operational conditions. Such devices can either be wired or wireless and are designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions. The expanding machine-to-machine (M2M) connections and burgeoning industrial automation are key drivers propelling the growth of the industrial routers industry.
Industrial routers play a critical role in machine-to-machine (M2M) connections, between various devices, machines, and systems in an industrial setup, as they provide stable, secure, and efficient connectivity for M2M communication. The increasing trend of automation and digitalization in industries has created a surge in M2M connections and as more machines are interconnected, the demand for industrial routers that can handle the increased data communication load has grown. According to the Cisco "Annual Internet Report", the proportion of Machine-To-Machine (M2M) connections is projected to experience substantial growth, increasing from 33% in 2018 to an estimated 50% in 2023. The number of M2M connections is also set to soar, reaching an impressive 14.7 billion by 2023.
Industrial routers are used in industrial automation to facilitate efficient and reliable communication between machines which is essential for the smooth operation of automated systems. These robust devices enable secure data exchange between various components of an industrial network, ensuring stable connectivity even in challenging environmental conditions. The surge in industrial automation can be attributed to the pursuit of increased operational efficiency, reduced human intervention, enhanced safety, and ongoing investments. For instance, in February 2022, United States Steel and Carnegie Foundry jointly declared a strategic investment and partnership which aimed to expedite the expansion of industrial automation in manufacturing through the deployment of advanced robotics and artificial intelligence.
Technological advancements have led to the development of industrial routers with enhanced functionalities such as higher data transfer speeds, superior security features, and robustness in harsh environmental conditions. Furthermore, the development of routers with improved wireless connectivity options caters to the growing trend of wireless communication in industrial settings. For instance, in April 2023, Queclink unveiled its first high-performance 5G dual SIM dual mode wired and wireless industrial router, the WR300FG. Also, in February 2021, HMS Networks introduced its industrial 5G router. This Wireless Router 5G is compatible with Ericsson Industry Connect 5G networks, facilitating user-friendly access to 5G connectivity at their respective locations.
The Asia-Pacific region is expected to hold a significant share of the industrial router market primarily due to substantial initiatives and investments by governments & company giants aimed at bolstering industrial automation. For instance, In November 2022, Coupang Inc., a leading e-commerce company in Korea, announced plans to allocate $4 billion towards automating its logistics infrastructure. Also, In April 2023, an IIT Kanpur-incubated startup received funding of INR 4.12 crores from the Technology Development Board (TDB) to assist in the commercialization of its Machine Vision and Robotics System, a solution aimed at automating processes in the manufacturing industry.
Industrial routers, serving as pivotal communication nodes within industrial networks, are often targeted in cyber-attacks due to their crucial role in network traffic control. If compromised, these routers can provide an entry point for hackers to infiltrate the entire industrial network, leading to potential data breaches, disruptions in operations, or even sabotage. The risk of cyber-attacks and the potential consequences of a security breach can make some organizations hesitant to fully integrate such networked technologies, thereby restraining the growth of the industrial router industry. For instance, In May 2023, researchers discovered a total of 11 security vulnerabilities within products from three different industrial cellular router manufacturers. These vulnerabilities could be exploited by attackers through multiple methods.
