According to Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider, the global managed switches market is estimated to be valued at US$ 17.6 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at an impressive CAGR of 8.4% during the forecast period of 2022–2032.

Managed switches are network switches that interconnect nodes and transfer data at Ethernet standard rates. They function as a central hub between printers, computers, storage arrays, and scanners, connecting them to the Local Area Network (LAN).

The benefit of using a managed switch over a router is that it allows connecting more than one device over the LAN by making more than one switch port available. Managed network switches enable efficient methods of sharing information and allocating resources, thereby enhancing overall productivity and increasing business revenue.

What Do Managed Switch Manufacturers Need to Watch Out For?

“Lack of Trained Professionals and High Costs Involved in Maintaining & Updating Managed Switches”

Lack of trained professionals to assist in implementing managed switches is restraining the growth of this market. Also, due to the costs involved in maintaining and updating the entire network resources, business organizations are reluctant in deploying managed switches

Even though no electronic device can be 100% efficient, maximizing the output and performance is important, and remains a challenging task, to which, managed Ethernet switches are no exception. Complexity in the designing process continues to be one of the major challenges.

Even when gigabit-managed switch ports are not actively operational, they consume a certain amount of power, which leads to additional operational costs. High costs associated with the complexity in design and high energy consumption of managed switches may undermine market potential.
