2 Report No.: M January 2019 Bishop & Associates Inc. announces the release of a new six-chapter, 269 page research report that provides a detailed analysis of the world industrial market for connectors. Examined in detail are how traditional industrial markets have become enmeshed with the Internet of Things (IoT), creating the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or what many have referred to as the fourth industrial revolution or Industry 4.0. The IIoT is considered the biggest driver of productivity and growth in industrial markets over the next decade, and one of the main drivers behind the development and growth of connectivity technologies and innovation. This report examines key segments of the industrial market and their role in the IIoT. These include Industrial Automation & Process Control, Machine Tools, Machinery, and Robotics, Building & Civil Engineering, Energy Markets, and Heavy Equipment. These traditional market segments are analyzed and linked to the smart factory, the smart grid, and smart cities. Also examined are the role various communication protocols will play in the industrial connector market and key connector suppliers to this market sector. Smart Factory: Industrial Automation & Process Control, Machine Tools, Machinery, and Robotics Automation in factories, especially in the automotive sector, has already reached impressive levels. Industrial robot sales are booming, and factory networking and automation has been advancing for at least two decades. Adding the Internet of Things to the mix will offer the manufacturing and process industry the opportunity to take this to the next level. Some of the key drivers in the smart factory evolution are: Extensive use of Robotics/Industrial Robots, working with and alongside humans Machine-to-Machine communication (M2M) everywhere Implementation of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) Inclusion in manufacturing processes of 3D Additive Printing Inclusion in manufacturing processes of Augmented Reality (AR) Smart Grid: Energy markets Smart grid is a term coined for an approach that significantly increases the efficiency of the entire electrical delivery system and guarantees an improved electricity supply chain that runs from (multiple) power plants all the way to the point of consumption. It also includes points of injection, when customers inject power into the electricity grid. This happens for example when they have their own solar panels or windmills. Its aim is to increase the reliability of the entire system but also to reduce the environmental impact of energy generation and consumption. These grids will be connected to each other (cross-border as well) to make the systems even more efficient and increase redundancy in case of emergencies. Market drivers of the smart grid include: Improved electrical grid reliability and efficiency and increased energy security; Reduction in overall (energy) costs; Reduced CO2 emissions (to meet internationally agreed levels); and Ability to connect a variety of energy sources (fossil fuels, wind, solar, hydro) to the grid.

3 Smart Cities: Building & Civil Engineering, Energy markets and Heavy Equipment A smart city can be described as an interconnected city where (commercial & residential) buildings, infrastructure (road, rail, sea, and air), communication networks, public transport and services, energy systems, waste treatment, water suppliers, air quality (warnings) and so on are all interconnected and can act on big data, collected from all the connected things and stored in cloud applications. These applications can provide output and initiate actions either autonomously or with/after intervention by humans. As such smart cities are of course also connected to the smart grid, facilitate smart traffic and most likely also comprise smart factories. As modern cities are trying to cope with an increasing population at a time that (global) natural resources are being depleted at an increased rate, urban planners need to address some key issues: Energy Efficiency and Management Communication and Connectivity Safety and Security Traffic Infrastructure and Logistics Water & Waste Treatment This report tackles some of the technologies that are currently being considered for each of these areas. Included in the report are industrial connector sales for the years 2017 through 2023 by region, by industrial segment and by connector product type. Examples of the tables provided with this report are shown below.
