The 2Q 2025 report from Dell’Oro Group indicates a 16% year-over-year growth in Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) (LAN) market revenue, showing a positive recovery from 2024. IT decision-makers may find this data relevant for assessing market trends.

WLAN Market Growth Factors

According to Dell’Oro Group, revenue from Wireless Local Area Networks has seen double-digit growth for two consecutive quarters. This reflects ongoing market recovery, with Cisco's pricing strategy playing a crucial role.

Research Director Siân Morgan stated, “Cisco has kept its average Wi-Fi 7 AP price significantly below the price of Wi-Fi 6E when it was first introduced, which was a catalyst for adoption in the second quarter.”

License revenues remain important, with more enterprises opting for recurring fees for access to AI-enhanced features. Morgan pointed out that such trends are shaping vendors’ offerings in the market.

Market Highlights

Key insights from the report include substantial revenue growth for CommScope and Ubiquiti, each exceeding 70% year-over-year. North America exhibited the most significant expansion, increasing by over 20% compared to other regions.

Additionally, public cloud-managed WLAN solutions have outpaced overall market growth, attributable to the accumulation of recurring license fees. Increased acquisition activity in the IT equipment sector is also noted, which is expected to affect the WLAN market in the upcoming quarter.
