Cisco also continued to dominate the Ethernet Switch market with a 57.4% share, followed by Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) and .

The July-September quarter saw a decline which was majorly contributed by the router segment due to strong investments that happened during 2018. However, when compared with Q2, the Indian networking market grew by 13 per cent. The growth was mainly due to enterprises starting to exhaust their yearly IT budgets and governments beginning to start IT procurement post elections.

“The advent of IoT in Indian enterprises has enabled multiple organisations to build use cases around smart processes and improve interoperability. However, increased network speed and lower latencies are crucial for attaining maximum advantage,” Sudharsan Raghunathan, senior market analyst, enterprise networking, IDC India, said.

“5G would act as a catalyst in driving the adoption of IOT, thereby enabling Indian enterprises to revisit their approach towards their existing networking architecture/infrastructure.”
