ISDN Modem Market Growth and Analysis by 2028

The ISDN modem market is expected to decline from US$ 53.54 million in 2022 to US$ 15.85 million by 2028; it is estimated to register a CAGR of -18.5% from 2022 to 2028.

The ISDN industry started in the 1980s at Bell Labs and was commercialized in 1988, along with its standards. The companies operating worldwide in that era had taken full advantage of ISDN lines for their operations. However, by 2000, several countries started moving toward upgraded technologies that provided them with more advanced internet speed and modern telecom operations. For instance, the adoption of broadband, Digital Subscriber Lines (DSL) routers, and Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Lines (ADSL) started replacing the ISDN modem technologies across different regions.

ISDN modems are more widely available than the Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and cable modem technologies and are still being used as a backup line when the main line of a network fails across underdeveloped countries. It is widely used in residential applications, such as small home offices, for additional telephone lines and good voice service. Further, the ISDN modem market growth was mainly driven by several advantages such as high-speed data transfer during teleconferencing to support the growing need for integrated business communication among small-scale enterprises. Further, the various features of ISDN modem such as call forwarding, call hold, and caller ID had increased the preference for ISDN modem as backup lines across multiple corporate enterprises.

Moreover, the adoption of ISDN modem as a backup line has been witnessed across underdeveloped countries such as Ethiopia. For instance, in June 2021, Target Business Consultants Pvt. Ltd. Co., an Ethiopia-based company, procured ~8 units of ISDN modems in collaboration with MasterCard Foundation for a COVID-19 project implemented by the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, Ministry of Innovation and Technology (MInT). Such instances have driven the demand for ISDN modems across African region.

The Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN) is a virtual circuit-switched network that can use high packet switching services and a flexible format, i.e., asynchronous transfer mode, for data transmission. B-ISDN, a high-speed fiber network, can operate at 100 Mbps, which is ideal for video applications, including video surveillance and videoconferencing. However, the B-ISDN technology is also expected to be discontinued by 2025, which will restrain the current ISDN modem market size.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on ISDN Modem Market

The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted different industries, from manufacturing to airlines. However, it positively influenced the technology industry globally. As a safety measure, governments worldwide enforced work from home to curb the spread of COVID-19 virus. Due to such government measure, lots of businesses were pressurized to catch on remote working at a fast pace. In this measure, several businesses adopted Webex, Microsoft Teams, and different methods of communication such as smartphones. Instead of making a shift into VOIP by replacing existing communication, the companies opted for aforesaid methods. This factor has positively impacted the ISDN modem market size, as many companies have refrained themselves to replace existing system with new system such as VoIP or other additional services including ISDN. Moreover, some of the poor telecom infrastructure countries such as Ethiopia has also opted ISDN modems for remote area campaigns during the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, in July 2021, the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, Ministry of Innovation and Technology (MInT) in collaboration with the MasterCard Foundation had released a tender for the purchase of 8 units of ISDN modems for their respective COVID-19 project in Ethiopia. Such instances have driven the market during the FY 2020-2021.
