By 2025, experts cited in the Connected Factory Partner Accelerator System Engineer Training believe that which percentage of all devices connected to the Internet will be industrial-related devices?

Question

Options

• A20%
• B35%
• C50%
• D60%
• E70%

• C
  94% (33)
• D
  3% (1)
• E
  3% (1)

Explanation

Option C (50%) is correct because the Connected Factory Partner Accelerator training specifically cites industry projections that by 2025, half of all internet-connected devices would be industrial in nature - reflecting the explosive growth of Industrial IoT (IIoT) across manufacturing, energy, logistics, and infrastructure sectors.

The distractors are wrong for the following reasons: A (20%) and B (35%) significantly underestimate the scale of industrial adoption projected by experts, representing figures more consistent with earlier forecasts. D (60%) and E (70%) overcorrect in the other direction - while IIoT growth is substantial, consumer and enterprise devices still represent a major share of connected endpoints, so a majority-dominant figure isn't what the training material supports.

Memory tip: Think "half and half" - by 2025, the connected world was projected to split evenly between industrial and non-industrial devices. The clean 50% figure makes it a memorable landmark statistic for the exam.
