DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/f70ca7/worldwide_multise) has
announced the addition of the "Worldwide Multi-Service Business Gateway Market
Update" report to their offering. 

Multi-service business gateway (MSBG) defined as a small, medium, or branch
office device specifically designed to serve multiple primary voice, data, and
video communication functions. The MSBG market is comprised of a wide variety of
devices, optimized for specific applications, such as secure routing, VoIP
gateway and SIP trunking, as well as specialized solutions for the retail and
education industries. 

The MSBG market segment has always been about the application of existing
technology, rather than the introduction of new technology. The adoption of
multi-service devices continues to grow, with over 1 million MSBGs deployed,
worldwide, over the past five years. The MSBG market for 2009 and 2010 will be
severely challenged by the economic downturn. For this reason, In-Stat expects
MSBG vendors to remain focused on branch office and other niche applications
that offer product differentiation and limit direct competition. In the longer
term, developing countries, such as China and India will present high revenue
growth opportunities. In-Stat does not believe that NGN business services will
emerge as a major MSBG application over the forecast period. Furthermore, the
emergence of cloud-based services will erode MSBG office-in-a-box market
potential. 

This annual update research report provides a review of technology trends and
activities in this nearly US$1 billion market segment. The report quantifies SMB
and enterprise branch office sites worldwide, and provides US business survey
data, as well as US and global MSBG shipment/revenue forecasts by application. 

HIGHLIGHTS

* Over 110,000 MSBG devices will be shipped in the US in 2009 
* Worldwide MSBG annual shipments will grow from 245,000 in 2009 to 331,000 by
2013. 
* Worldwide MSBG revenue will grow to US$951 million by 2013.
