4G Deployment Spurs Wireless Test Equipment Uptake in Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, Finds Frost & Sullivan PR Newswire KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 23, 2012 - Vendors need to develop advanced and integrated solutions that reduce complexity in network testing KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The wireless test equipment market in Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand is expected to grow at a double digit rate owing to the rapid commercialization of the 4G cellular wireless standards and the increasing number of 3G network deployments. The proliferation of smart mobile devices has led to higher wireless data usage, affecting the traffic mix on networks. Therefore, test equipment vendors are looking to offer compatible testing solutions aimed at helping service providers manage their systems more intelligently. New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.testandmeasurement.frost.com), Analysis of the Wireless Test Equipment Market in Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, finds that the market earned revenues of over US$312.8 million in 2011 and estimates this to reach US$921.1 million in 2017. In emerging economies with high-growth domestic product (GDP) and an expanding population, upgrading 3G technology and commercializing future time-division long-term evolution (TD-LTE) and 4G network is critical to overcome data traffic. However, the increased complexity of testing the network poses a challenge to solution providers.
