The Asia Pacific virtual router market is projected to grow at a high growth rate during the forecast timeline. The growing adoption of 4G and the increasing spending for the development of 5G infrastructure propel the adoption of virtual routers in the region. Over the past three years, a rapid shift toward the higher speed mobile technology in the region has been witnessed. In 2016, mobile broadband technologies such as 3G and above have dominated network technologies. Japan, South Korea, and Australia are the market leaders in terms of 4G adoption. However, China will emerge as one of the key countries in 4G uptake during the forecast period with over one billion 4G connections by the end of 2018.
