摘 要：The Global Set Top Box market is expected to witness rapid growth during the forecast period. One of the major reasons for this growth is the digitization of existing analog TV connections. This rapid growth is expected to be followed by a stagnant growth during the forecast period, as the global transition from analog to digital TV is likely to be completed by 2016. As a result, the overall market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.14 percent during the forecast period. The Americas is the major revenue contributor to the Global Set Top Box market and holds a revenue share of 36.98 in 2013. The Americas is followed by the APAC region and the EMEA region. The top four vendors in the Global Set Top Box market are Cisco System Inc., Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., Pace plc, and Technicolor USA Inc.

STBs are devices that are connected to a TV at the user's premises. These devices enable users to receive unencrypted subscribed channels through an addressable system for viewing encrypted channels. They connect a TV to an external signal source and transform the transmitted signal into video content, which is then displayed on the screen. STBs can convert both analog and digital signals into visuals. There are four main types of STBs, namely cable, satellite, IPTV, and hybrid. STBs can be used to improve the picture quality and store videos. The digital format provides better sound and picture quality, as well as an enhanced viewing experience with HD. They also include interactive services such as video on demand and the freedom to pay only for specific channels.
