Telecommunications equipment

Telecommunications equipment (also telecoms equipment or communications equipment) are hardware which are used for the purposes of telecommunications. Since the 1990s the boundary between telecoms equipment and IT hardware has become blurred as a result of the growth of the internet and its increasing role in the transfer of telecoms data.[1][2]

Smartphones are one of the most popular telecoms equipment.

Types edit

Telecommunications equipment can be broadly broken down into the following categories:[3]

Semiconductors edit

Most of the essential elements of modern telecommunication are built from MOSFETs (metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors), including mobile devices, transceivers, base station modules, routers, RF power amplifiers,[4] microprocessors, memory chips, and telecommunication circuits.[5] As of 2005, telecommunications equipment account for 16.5% of the annual microprocessor market.[6]

Vendors edit

The world's largest telecommunications equipment vendors by revenues in 2017 are:[7]
