Router And Switch Market Insights

Router And Switch Market size was valued at USD 16.93 Billion in 2023 and is poised to grow from USD 18.13 Billion in 2024 to USD 24.85 Billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 7.1% during the forecast period (2025-2032).

Both switches and routers are used to connect networks. While switches connect different devices in a network, routers operate at the network layer and are tasked with determining the quickest path for packets. A switch is a device that gives local area network devices connections points (LAN). On a single network, several devices are connected using switches. Switches can be utilised to build more complex networks. Compared to routers, switches are typically employed in larger networks.

A router is linked to at least two networks, typically two LANs, WANs, or LANs as well as the network of the ISP. Multiple home and small office networks are linked to the Internet using routers. Routers are used by big enterprises, schools, and other organisations to connect their local area networks.

US Router And Switch Market is poised to grow at a sustainable CAGR for the next forecast year.
