Access switches to account for the largest market share in 2017 mainly due to a wide network connectivity offered by these switches to distribution layers as well as different end users.  Access switches need more number of ports to move the data from one network to another so that the load can be balanced. Thus, these switches ensure connectivity between servers and networks.

The market for InfiniBand switches is expected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. The highest growth of InfiniBand switches is largely because of the high-bandwidth solution for each port under a competitive price that InfiniBand switches offer. In the data center switch market, >1 Gbps to <10 Gbps bandwidth switches are widely adopted as they meet the requirements of most of the distribution and access switches. >1 Gbps to <10 Gbps switches are available over access, distribution, and core hierarchical layers in data centers.
