Market Overview:
The global active optical cable market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-speed data transmission in data centers, consumer electronics, and other applications. Additionally, the growing trend of miniaturization is also contributing to the growth of the market. The Ethernet segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global active optical cable market in 2018. This segment is driven by its growing demand for high-speed data transmission in data centers and consumer electronics applications.
Product Definition:
Active optical cable (AOC) is a type of cable used to connect devices such as servers, storage systems, and switches. AOCs are often used in data centers and other high-density settings where short distances between devices are necessary.
AOCs use light rather than electricity to transmit data, making them faster and more reliable than traditional copper cables. Additionally, they consume less power and take up less space than copper cables. This makes them ideal for use in tight spaces where traditional cabling would be difficult or impossible to install.
InfiniBand:
InfiniBand is a high-performance interconnect technology developed by Infineon Technologies AG. It is an advanced bus architecture that delivers up to 100 Gbps bi-directional bandwidth and supports up to 8K of optical data transfer in each direction. The technology provides higher performance, lower latency, and easier maintenance than traditional PCI Express or USB 2.0 solutions.
Ethernet:
Ethernet is a group of computers network that uses the same cable to transmit data packets from one computer to another. It is also known as a protocol or a network layer in which all the nodes can communicate with each other using IP (Internet Protocol). The whole system works on “packet switching” mechanism. Every unit called as an Ethernet station or endpoint, which consists of hardware and software, can participate in this communication.
Application Insights:
The data center segment dominated the global active optical cable market in 2017 and is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. The increasing need for high-speed data transfer between different parts of a data center, between a cloud provider¢â‚¬â„¢s facilities and between a customer site and the cloud is expected to drive demand for AOCs in this application segment.
In addition, growing adoption of AOCs with Infiniband as it provides low latency & high bandwidth interconnection among various components within a Data Center has been driving growth. Furthermore, introduction of new products coupled with rising demand from major technology companies such as Microsoft Corporation; Google Inc.; Facebook Inc.; Apple Inc.; International Business Machines Corporation; Amazon.com, Inc.; etc., are likely to propel industry expansion over the coming years.
Regional Analysis:
The North American regional market accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing adoption of high-speed data networks, rising investments in data centers, and advancements in network infrastructure. Moreover, presence of prominent players such as Corning Incorporated (U.S.), Fujitsu Ltd (Japan), and Seagate Technology PLC (U.S.) is also contributing toward industry growth across this region.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to emerge as a lucrative regional market over the next eight years owing to growing demand from developing countries such as China and India along with other Southeast Asian nations like Singapore, Thailand, Philippines etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for high-speed data transmission: The growth of the active optical cable market is mainly driven by the increasing demand for high-speed data transmission. Active optical cables can support speeds up to 10 Gbps, which is much faster than traditional copper cables. This makes them ideal for applications such as data centers, enterprise networks, and consumer electronics.
- Growing popularity of fiber optic technology: Fiber optic technology is becoming increasingly popular due to its superior performance and bandwidth capacity compared to traditional copper wiring technologies. This is driving the adoption of active optical cables as well.
- Proliferation of cloud computing and big data: The growth of cloud computing and big data are creating new opportunities for the active optical cable market as these applications require high-bandwidth connectivity solutions that can handle large amounts of traffic quickly and efficiently.
- Development of next-generation networking standards: Next-generation networking standards such as 5G, IEEE 802 .11ac Wave 2, and 400Gb/s Ethernet are driving the need for higher bandwidth connectivity solutions, which in turn is benefiting the active optical cable market growth rate significantly .
