What is the expected growth rate for the Pro AV products and SIP business in FY'21 
n -- inventory has been kind of normalized now and I think that's coming back and should have a good year, especially the hyperscale segment and we are confident in both our ClearEdge and Tri-Edge and PAM4 and FiberEdge platforms there.
PON, it's had a difficult year this year. We expect that to come back next year, as I mentioned, more fiber-to-the-home, more fiber-to-the-enterprise deployments, particularly in China, but also the 10 gig -- as 10 gig PON starting to accelerate. We feel good about our position there and the growth prospects there.
Base stations, I'm sure you've heard it from others as well that we think next year is going to be a little bit better than this year and both for 4G and for 5G, but mostly obviously 5G growth.
And then Pro AV products and SIP business should start to really accelerate. That's a small business for us today, but we're expecting very strong growth in that business for FY'21. LoRa, as I mentioned, we're expecting that to grow nicely next year.
And then on the protection side, yes, a little bit more challenging to really call out what's going to happen on the smartphone side. But as I mentioned that, there are good design wins across the globe and we feel pretty good about the Tier 1 smartphone manufacturers shipping more volume and with the 5G -- growth in the 5G side, we should see a good mobile year next year as well. So, again, lot depends on China, a lot depends on the macro, but we feel good about where we are today.

Hi, guys. So, quick clarification. Perhaps I missed it, did you say what types of applications had pushed from CY'19 to CY'20 in the LoRa business or is that more some of the traditional China or smart metering? Or is that some of the newer consumer applications? And then I've got a couple of follow-ups.
Mohan R. Maheswaran -- President, Chief Executive Officer & Director
Yes. I would say, it's more the consumer applications, Quinn. The China LoRa business was really weak in the first half, came back I think to more normal levels in the second half and it's more industrial, it's more metering and environment. And those markets tend to take longer time anyway, but they -- once they're there, they just will go on for quite some time. I think the more consumer-ish smart homes, smart asset tracking, a little bit more difficult to predict the timing of those, but when they come, I think it will be significant.
Quinn Bolton -- Needham & Company -- Analyst
Great. And then the second question is, you mentioned growing demand in the 5G front-haul for your ClearEdge product family, just wondering, are those typically going into a CWDM4-type modules? Are they single lanes at 25? How big is that opportunity as we deploy the 5G networks in much greater scale next year?
Mohan R. Maheswaran -- President, Chief Executive Officer & Director
Yes. I think it's -- actually all the links of the front-haul and mid-haul links will probably require CDRs, and so it's more content for us, that's the -- probably the main driver versus 4G base stations. And then, I think just the number of base stations drives more of a volume increase as well. It's early days, but we feel good about the fact that these are -- these 25-gig links follow -- are going to use ClearEdge platform, which is a proven platform for us in the data center market. And so, we feel really good about our CDR position in the base stations and most of these have integrated drivers and things like that. So, really the differentiation is quite clear for us in the market. So, yes, I think we're in good shape.
Quinn Bolton -- Needham & Company -- Analyst
And then, do you see any applications for the FiberEdge or the PAM4-based modules in that front-haul mid-haul or do you think that's mostly NRZ signaling for the foreseeable future?
Mohan R. Maheswaran -- President, Chief Executive Officer & Director
Now, we see FiberEdge as
