“Growing Need Due to Rising Security Concerns and Smart Home Adoption”
- The Middle East and Africa are experiencing rising urbanization and security concerns, particularly in high-density cities like Riyadh, Dubai, Johannesburg, and Lagos. This has prompted a surge in demand for advanced home and business surveillance systems.
- Dish antennas are increasingly integrated into smart security systems across MEA, serving as vital communication tools for satellite-linked surveillance cameras, intrusion detection systems, and emergency alert networks.
- In 2024, a growing percentage of new residential and commercial buildings in the Gulf region (especially in the UAE and Saudi Arabia) are being equipped with smart home technologies, many of which rely on dish antennas for satellite TV, broadband internet, and automated system connectivity.
- For instance, in April 2024, smart building projects in the UAE implemented IoT-based access controls with satellite communication modules—requiring reliable dish antenna integration.
- The growing popularity of DIY smart home solutions and voice-controlled ecosystems like Google Assistant (in multilingual Arabic support) and Amazon Alexa is driving demand for compact, easy-to-install dish antennas across the MEA region.
