Industrial Ethernet set to increase strongly in China’s booming sectors
工業(yè)以太網在中國新興行業(yè)增長強勁

The market for Ethernet infrastructure components in Chinese industry is set to grow strongly, but the opportunity will vary with the strength of the vertical sector.

中國工業(yè)的以太網基礎設施組件市場將強勁增長，但機會將根據垂直行業(yè)的實力而有所不同。
 
According to a newly published report “The Chinese market for industrial Networking & Ethernet” from IMS Research, nearly $120 million of industrial Ethernet infrastructure components were sold in China in 2009 and growing with estimated 20% more in 2010. “The Chinese market is still far from saturation compared with the industrialized world as a whole”, comments analyst Alex Hong. “With many new plants and projects started recently, the demand for Ethernet components will continue to grow explosively.”

根據IMS Research最新公布的《工業(yè)網絡和以太網中國市場》報告，2009年，中國工業(yè)以太網基礎設施組件的銷售額大約是1.2億美元，而2010年這個數字預計增長超過20%。“與工業(yè)化國家作為一個整體相比，中國市場還遠未達到飽和”，分析師Alex Hong評論道。“隨著許多新工廠和項目的最近開工，以太網組件的需求將繼續(xù)爆炸式增長。”
 
The vertical industry sector is important when projecting growth prospects. More than 30% of the revenues in China are coming from the power & energy industries. Chinese Government policy, such as the Strong and Smart Grid Plan and strong support for renewable energy development, helps rapid growth in this industry sector. Transport and traffic is also an important vertical sector, the stimulation plan for infrastructure construction still having an effect on sales of industrial Ethernet components.

在規(guī)劃增長前景時，垂直行業(yè)非常重要。中國超過30%的收入來自電力和能源產業(yè)。中國政府的政策，比如智能堅強電網計劃和對新能源發(fā)展的大力支持，使得這個行業(yè)快速發(fā)展。運輸及交通也是一個重要的垂直部門，對基礎設施建設的刺激計劃仍然影響著工業(yè)以太網組件的銷售。
 
Without doubt, the success of vendors of these components will depend on the sectors they best serve. Vendors with a focus in electric power generation and transmission or in transportation will win large revenues, if they keep in mind that the Chinese market, as always, is very price-conscious.

毫無疑問，這些組件供應商的成功將取決于他們提供最佳服務的行業(yè)。把重點放在發(fā)電和輸電或者運輸的供應商將贏得巨大的收益，如果他們記住中國市場一如既往地，是對價格非常敏感的。
 
Oil & gas could also be an interesting sector in the future. Although it is considered to be virgin territory for industrial Ethernet components in China, with a relatively small user base, potential market growth is very promising. However, certification is important in these applications, which may prove an obstacle for the Ethernet vendors in this market.

石油和天然氣將來也可能會成為一個令人關注的領域。盡管它被認為是中國工業(yè)以太網組件的一塊處女地，用戶群相對較小，但潛在市場增長前景非常看好。不過，認證在這個領域的應用非常重要，這可能成為以太網供應商在這個市場的一個障礙。
