It's
not that industry experts were wrong about the revenue potential. As homeowners
have become more knowledgeable about networking services and products, demand
for wired and wireless home offices and theaters has skyrocketed. Scottsdale,
Ariz.-based market research firm In-Stat recently reported that revenue
associated with home networking may jump to more than $20 billion by 2009, up
from just less than $9 billion in 2004.
Despite
the threat of higher interest rates, new residential construction continues to
grow. In fact, conservative estimates for the home networking market project it
will be standard in at least half the homes built in the next 10 years. Yet,
the move from electrical work to full-service networking infrastructure and products
isn't one that most electrical contracting firms have been willing to take.
