Wi-Fi Market by Offering (Hardware, Solutions, Services), Density (High-density Wi-Fi, Enterprise-class Wi-Fi), Location Type (Indoor, Outdoor), Application, Vertical (Education, Retail & eCommerce) and Region - Global Forecast to 2028

The Wi-Fi market size is expected to grow from USD 14.5 billion in 2023 to USD 39.4 billion by 2028 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 22.2% during the forecast period. The exponential growth of internet-enabled devices, from smartphones to smart home appliances, fuels the demand for ubiquitous and high-speed wireless connectivity. Also, government initiatives promoting digital inclusion and smart city projects contribute significantly, enhancing public Wi-Fi infrastructure.

Among hardware, access point to hold the highest market share during the forecast period.

Access points are used to connect wireless devices, also known as smart devices, to any network for internet connectivity. These points are also known as Wireless Access Points (WAPs). The main function of access points is to behave as a medium for transmitting wireless signals. The increasing internet penetration worldwide drives the demand for Wi-Fi infrastructure, with access points being essential components for creating wireless networks.

Among density, enterprise-class Wi-Fi holds the highest market share during the forecast period.

An enterprise-class wireless network is more than just a collection of Wi-Fi Access Points (APs). At the minimum, it is characterized by superior security and performance, centralized configuration and management, and a much higher capacity for user density. The need for businesses to ensure consistent and fast internet connectivity to minimize their downtime will drive the market.

Among regions, Asia Pacific is to hold a higher CAGR during the forecast period.

Countries in Asia Pacific are undergoing rapid urbanization, leading to increased demand for Wi-Fi in urban areas, public spaces, transportation hubs, and smart city initiatives. Also, due to digital transformation across various sectors, businesses are adopting digital technologies, cloud services, and IoT solutions, further driving the need for robust and high-speed wireless connectivity.
