Video Equipment Market to Reach $3.8 Billion in 2017

CHESHAM BOIS, England, April 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

    News has emerged that the overall infrastructure of the video equipment market will
progressively increase and reach as much as $3.8 billion dollars in 2017. According to a
report
[http://advanced-television.com/2013/03/04/video-equipment-sales-worth-3-8bn-by-2017 ] by
Advanced Television, video recorders, which represent the fastest growing component of the
video equipment market, are growing at as much as ten per cent each year. The news is
likely to be welcomed by companies like RCB Logic [http://www.rcblogic.co.uk ], which has
more than ten years technical experience supporting and developing the broadcast and video
production market.

    Whilst the overall video equipment market is growing at a rate of six per cent
annually, certain segments or sub-segments of the market are rising at quicker or slower
rates. Whereas video encoders grow at ten per cent each year, classic video servers, which
are experiencing a high rate of integration, are increasing at approximately three per
cent a year.

    Talking about the significant progression within the market, Adarsh Krishnan, senior
analyst at ABI Research told Advanced Television:

    "Significant consolidation is taking place within the video infrastructure hardware
space. In addition to the well-publicised acquisition by smaller Arris of larger Motorola
- creating a more healthy and diverse company - Harmonic recently spun off a small and
low-margin business to Aurora Networks. Mature hardware companies, including Cisco,
Ericsson, and even Huawei are all turning their focus to higher margin services business
as new entrants compete in well understood sections of the equipment space."

    In the wake of the prolific rise in the sale of video equipment which is expected to
reach $3.8 billion in 2017, up from $2.8 billion in 2012, capital investments in video
production may well increase. One example of capital investments in the video production
market increasing is the recent purchase by Content Partners of a 50% interest in the CSI
television franchise. The announcement
[http://www.philiphodgetts.com/2013/03/why-dont-we-have-more-capital-investment-in-productions ]
has been cited as marking a major milestone for a speciality financial company that
is "quietly transforming the way that producers, artists, directors, and even major
financial firms buy and sell the rights to future cash flows from film, television, and
music."

    It certainly seems that as video equipment becomes increasingly advanced, the
broadcast production market is becoming more lucrative to investors, meaning that
companies such as RCB Logic are likely to see an increase in their extensive range of
products.

    RCB Logic [http://www.rcblogic.co.uk ] is one of the UK's leading independent
providers of audio, video and IT integration products and services. Having been appointed
as the main dealer for Gefen, ViewCast and Aja Video, RCB Logic is able to provide
products at great value and share its exceptional product knowledge.
