Home, Where the Smart Is

While the home is shaping up to be the battleground, cable operators and other service providers are jostling to position themselves as the aggregation and management point of this emerging class of smart-home services, which have already boosted profits.

It’s shaping up to be a good place to seek growth, as consumer adoption of smart-home technologies and services is clearly on the rise.

About 26% of U.S. broadband homes now have a smart home device, up from 19% at the end of 2015, according to a Q4 2016 national survey conducted by Parks Associates. The research firm also found that 11% of U.S. broadband homes currently employ a smart thermostat, and 5% own a smart plug/adapter module.
