Network spend outstips client for hardware/software

Revenue growth from video infrastructure network hardware and software is far outstripping growth from client hardware and software, says new Q1 data from Synergy Research Group.

While revenue from all video infrastructure grew by 7% on a rolling year-on-year basis, growth in network hardware and software came in at 10% and 17% respectively.

On the network side, individual segments that grew particularly strongly include TV Everywhere, video on demand systems, cloud DVR software, search & recommendation, CCAP and media data center. On the client side the strongest growth segment was media streaming devices. Meanwhile, revenues from content security declined somewhat despite the growth in DRM and cardless solutions.
