The Report
The Gartner Magic Quadrant for Wired, Wireless LAN Access Infrastructure 2019 was shaped by consolidation, a trend that has continued to impact this evolving market. Ruckus in August closed its acquisition of competitor Aerohive Networks and Cambium Networks also closed its Xirrus deal during the same month. At the same time, 18 vendors made this year's Gartner Magic Quadrant for Wired, Wireless LAN, including newcomers Cambium Networks, Ruijie Networks, TP-Link, and Ubiquiti Networks.
The Magic Quadrant for the Wired and Wireless LAN market includes vendors that offer switching and WLAN hardware and have annual network service application revenue exceeding $10 million that is not entirely generated in one single country. The report also evaluates the vendors’ sales execution, including the overall effectiveness of their channel programs.
