Global Fiber Optics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% from 2020-2026

Published | 20 April 2020

Global Fiber Optics Market has gained the momentum in recent years with a CAGR of XX%, in value terms, over the forecast period 2020-2026, and expected to reach at USD XX Million by 2026. The adoption of fiber optic cables to send less-loss signals has increased over the years, driving market growth.

The worldwide demand for the internet, combined with the growing need for FTTx, is the major factor driving the growth of the fiber optics industry. On the other hand, rising wireless communication systems are limiting the growth of the market. In addition to the evolution of 5 G networks, increasing popularity of cloud computing, increasing number of video-on-demand (VoD) users and growth of Internet of Things (IoT) installed base are some of the key factors that are projected to cause growth of the global fiber optics industry.

Widespread implementation of 5G is fueling the market across the globe

The demand for more data and better coverage is on the rise among consumers all over the world. The next advancement in technology is supposed to be the 5th generation wireless network, as it can relay more data while offering a more stable and secure link. The features of 5 G, such as fast data rates and throughputs, are highly affected by these heavy-duty fiber optic networks that impact both the cellular side of the system and the wireline side. In fact, formidable 5 G network performance goals are strongly predicated on a large fiber connectivity availability. 5 G is currently being tested in a variety of markets and is scheduled to launch broad rollout by 2020. The 5 G wireless network will send more data while making the link more secure and efficient. The most innovative technology for constructing the next generation of communication networks is FTTH, which uses fiber optic infrastructure to enable quicker and more efficient communication.

Technological Advancements

Emergence of 5G, IoT and Big Data will rely heavily on real-time data collection and transfer. And due to fiber optics unlimited bandwidth potential, fiber optics cable is chosen to support these bandwidth levels.

Further, to achieve expected performance levels for 5G networks, more small cells (or nodes) and mobile edge computing will be needed to eliminate network bottlenecks. These small-cell deployments often utilize the millimeter wave spectrum, relying heavily on fiber cabled connections for the backhaul portion of the network. The launch of 5G will bring enhanced capacity and lower latency straight to networks. Fiber optics cable is the preferred option for 5G due to its scalability, security, and ability to handle the vast amount of backhaul traffic being generated. This in return will create a huge market opportunity for the fiber optic cable market in IT and Telecom.
