The ongoing COVID-19 outbreak has badly impacted the MEA region. Among the MEA countries, Iran has faced the highest number of COVID-19 confirmed cases. Other significant countries facing the economic impact of COVID-19 include Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, Morocco, and Kuwait. Due to their heavy reliance from European and Asian regions for various automotive OEMs and their aftermarket products, the regions witnessed a sharp decline in the MEA regions. The power over Ethernet market in the MEA is majorly affected by the disruption in the distribution of components and equipment. Owing to the various containment measure initiated by the government, such as travel restrictions, factory shutdown, and lockdowns, the supply and distribution of semiconductors and electronics had been hampered. The demand for electronics, including power over Ethernet systems has weakened over the past couple of months, which has impacted the revenue streams of players operating in this region.

Broadcom Ltd.; Cisco Systems, Inc.; Dell Inc; Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.; Maxim Integrated Products, Inc; Monolithic Power Systems Inc.; ON Semiconductor Corporation; Silicon Laboratories Inc.; and Texas Instruments, Inc. are among the leading companies in the MEA Power over Ethernet market. The companies are focused on adopting organic growth strategies such as product launches and expansions to sustain their position in the dynamic market. For instance, in 2020, Silicon Laboratories, Inc. launched new Power over Ethernet (PoE) Powered Device (PD) series, Si3406x and Si3404. The new series target wireless access points, ip phones, ip cameras, and smart lighting. The new ICs support IEEE 802.3 at PoE+ power capabilities.
