Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global market for Remote Input Output Modules estimated at US$2.7 Billion in the year 2020
The global remote input output modules market will reach $3.6 billion by 2026. A report by Global Industry Analysts noted that the increasing investments in next-generation smart grids, rise in investment in industrial automation, increase in adoption of smart agriculture, greater usage of open-source software for remote I/O modules’ programming and increased use of Ethernet-based remote I/O modules in discreet and process automation, are driving the growth of the market.
The report read,” Companies are also working on designing modules with higher bandwidths than available at present. The main aim is to design I/O modules with bandwidths that can be upgraded as and when the need arises in the future with help of a simple firmware change. The popularity of remote I/O modules can be attributed to the benefits they provide by easing the work at sites that not only span long distances but also employ large machines.”
