| Document Title: | The Global Market for Gen2 UHF Hardware | |
| Publication Date: | Apr, 2011 | |
| Excerpt: | The total market for Gen2 UHF hardware – transponders, readers and printers – in 2010 was $354 Million, up more than 140% from 2009. VDC expects the Gen2 UHF hardware market to grow at a CAGR (Compounded Annual Growth Rate) of nearly 60% through 2015, approaching $3.7 Billion. Although the hardware for LF and HF markets account for more than 2/3 of the total RFID hardware revenues ($456.2 M and $1.2B respectively), their growth rates are much lower (4.9% and 18.4% respectively) for the same period. The Gen2 UHF hardware market represented about 14% of the total RFID hardware market in 2010; However by 2015, this market will account for nearly 47% of total global hardware revenues – more than LF and HF combined. | |
