Pay TV operators are deploying home networking technologies to deliver premium IP based services, such as mDVR, VoD, media-sharing and application stores to customers. Power line technologies are currently leading the market due to mass deployment by IPTV operators but as cable and DTH operators launch services volumes look like they will move towards coax based solutions. The reliance of non-operator controlled devices on traditional CAT5/6 and wireless networking will ensure that the market will remain fragmented with the home network made up of multiple networking technologies.

Chart summary: At end 2009 the home networking market was largely defined by the technology choices of IPTV operators: 84 per cent of operators with home networking in 2009 were IPTV operators, with DTH and cable making up the other 16 per cent.
