The study involved four major activities in estimating the size for network switches market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, peer market, and parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across value chains through primary research. The bottom-up approach was employed to estimate the overall market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various sources were used to identify and collect information important for this study. These include annual reports, press releases & investor presentations of companies, white papers, technology journals, and certified publications, articles by recognized authors, directories, and databases.
Secondary research was mainly used to obtain key information about the supply chain of the industry, the total pool of market players, classification of the market according to industry trends to the bottom-most level, regional markets, and key developments from the market and technology-oriented perspectives.
Primary research was also conducted to identify the segmentation types, key players, competitive landscape, and key market dynamics such as drivers, restraints, opportunities, challenges, and industry trends, along with key strategies adopted by players operating in the network switches market. Extensive qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed on the complete market engineering process to list key information and insights throughout the report.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research has been conducted after acquiring knowledge about the network switches market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with experts from both demand (end users) and supply side (network switches providers) across 4 major geographic regions: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and RoW. Approximately 80% and 20% of the primary interviews have been conducted from the supply and demand side, respectively. These primary data have been collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews.

Market Size Estimation
In the complete market engineering process, both the top-down and bottom-up approaches were implemented, along with several data triangulation methods, to estimate and validate the size of the network switches market and various other dependent submarkets. Key players in the market were identified through secondary research, and their market share in the respective regions was determined through primary and secondary research. This entire research methodology included the study of annual and financial reports of the top players, as well as interviews with experts (such as CEOs, VPs, directors, and marketing executives) for key insights (quantitative and qualitative).
All percentage shares, splits, and breakdowns were determined using secondary sources and verified through primary sources. All the possible parameters that affect the markets covered in this research study were accounted for, viewed in detail, verified through primary research, and analyzed to obtain the final quantitative and qualitative data. This data was consolidated and supplemented with detailed inputs and analysis from MarketsandMarkets and presented in this report.
Data Triangulation
After arriving at the overall market size from the market size estimation process as explained above, the total market has been split into several segments and subsegments. To complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at the exact statistics for all segments and subsegments, market breakdown and data triangulation procedures have been employed, wherever applicable. The data has been triangulated by studying various factors and trends from both demand and supply sides. Along with this, the market has been validated using top-down and bottom-up approaches.
