Global Mesh Gateway Market is valued approximately at USD 1.17 Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 11.5% over the forecast period 2024-2032. A Mesh Gateway is essentially a bridge between a mesh network and the outside world. In a mesh network, devices communicate directly with each other, but a gateway is needed to connect these devices to the internet or other external networks. It acts as a central point for managing network traffic, security, and connectivity. The market growth is driven by factors such as the increasing adoption of mesh gateways in industrial automation to improve efficiency, productivity, and the safety of day-to-day operations. Mesh gateways in an industrial automation setup help with reliable and efficient communications, enabling industries to automate their activities without human intervention, making the process smooth and safe. With the help of mesh gateways, industries can benefit from remote monitoring, real-time access to data, and predictive maintenance. This helps organizations secure and maintain machines' long life and improve performance using real-time data. As innovative industry initiatives around the globe are increasing, demand for mesh gateways in industrial automation setups is also expected to grow during the forecast period.
Mesh gateways have considerable opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Traditional wireless networking systems have shortcomings with consistent networks and coverage of large areas. Mesh gateways can help with these problems by establishing a consistent and reliable network, which is very useful in large premises and hazardous environments for continuous monitoring and assessments. Mesh gateways are user-friendly with simple installation processes and easy management through apps or web interfaces, reducing the need for specialized technical knowledge, making them ideal for SMEs. However, the higher initial cost and complex setup of mesh networking systems pose significant restraints. The initial deployment cost of a mesh networking system is expensive compared to traditional wireless networking systems. The individual mesh nodes are still affordable, but a system needs multiple nodes to ensure a proper wireless network throughout the premises where it is installed. Companies with budget constraints might hesitate to make investments, which act as a restraint for the market. While many systems are designed to be user-friendly, some users might need help configuring multiple devices and creating a mesh network, discouraging potential customers from considering mesh gateways.
However, data security and privacy concerns are significant challenges in the mesh gateway market. Mesh gateways are prone to cyber-attacks like hacking and malware. In mesh gateways, any node can act as an entry point, giving attackers significant opportunities to control the systems. If any node is compromised, hackers can control the entire system. Security across multiple nodes is complex and requires surveillance to ensure firmware updates, consistent security settings, and encryption. Compliance and data privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, or HIPAA also complicate security measures to protect personal data and meet legal requirements. Addressing these issues can act as a challenge for the mesh gateway market.
The key regions considered for the global mesh gateway market study include Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Rest of the World. Asia Pacific will grow with the highest CAGR during the forecast period. North America is a dominating region in the mesh gateway market in terms of revenue. The market growth in the region is being attributed to factors including surging demand for robust and reliable wireless connectivity, especially in areas with limited infrastructure. The increasing adoption of IoT devices and smart homes is fueling the need for efficient network management. The growth of the mesh gateway market in the Asia Pacific can be attributed to the rise in manufacturing and government initiatives in the region. Countries like China, South Korea, and India will play significant roles in this growth. For instance, Government initiatives like Wi-Fi Access Interface (WANI) by the Indian government launched in December 2020 aim to develop a wireless network across public locations nationwide. Such initiatives are improving wireless networking in the public and industrial sectors, boosting the mesh gateway market during the forecast period.
