The growing IoT ecosystem was a leading topic at CES 2016 in Las Vegas, especially at the collocated Parks Associates CONNECTIONS Summit. A market research and consulting company specializing in emerging consumer technology products and services, Parks has reported that ownership of smart home products increased by 50 percent in the past year and that 43 percent of U.S. broadband households plan to purchase a smart home device in the next 12 months. By demonstrating proper IPv6 readiness, CE router manufacturers can gain a competitive advantage against other companies aiming to support service providers in their IoT-related initiatives.
