 Equipment Industry Outlook.svg)
Product Definition:
FSO is a technology that uses light to transmit data between two points. FSO equipment is used to provide a connection for voice, video, or data communications between two points. The importance of FSO equipment lies in its ability to provide a high-bandwidth connection without the need for cables. This makes it ideal for use in areas where cabling is not feasible or where it would be too costly or time consuming to install cable infrastructure.
1 Gbps Transmission Rate:
1 Gbps transmission rate is the fastest data transfer speed over free space optics. It is mainly used in FSO equipment such as optical add-drop multiplexer (OADM) and passive optical network (PON). The 1 Gbps can be achieved with Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) or Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM). WDM allows sharing of light among many users while maintaining a constant bit rate.
2.5 Gbps Transmission Rate:
2.5 Gbps is the typical data rate for FSO equipment, which can be used in a variety of applications such as wireless access points, optical add-drop multiplexer (OADM), wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), and fiber channel switch. The 2.5 Gbps transmission rate is suitable for short distance transmissions up to 10Km using free space optics; it can also be used in longer range transmissions with the help of active optical cables if available.
Application Insights:
The corporate network segment dominated the market in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The growing demand for high-speed data transfer services across various industries such as IT, telecommunication, financial services, healthcare and defense is anticipated to drive the FSO equipment market. Furthermore, increasing cloud-based applications and e-commerce transactions are further expected to drive this application segment over the forecast period.
FSO technology has numerous advantages including increased data transmission speed with low latency; improved signal strength; reduced network congestion due to full Duplex (2x) mode operation; cost reduction by up to 75% when compared with traditional Fiber Optic Cables (FOC); easy installation & maintenance without any additional hardware requirement or software modification of existing devices; compatibility with wireless networks operating at 2.4 GHz frequency band which enables customers/users access point coordination function as well as improves overall performance of enterprise WLANs/WMANs thereby driving its adoption in corporate networks worldwide.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for high-speed internet, rising number of data centers in countries such as China and India, and growing adoption of fiber-based technologies. The Asia Pacific regional market accounted for a revenue share of more than 30% in 2017.
The North American regional market held a substantial share in the global space optics equipment industry owing to early technology adoption by several key players such as Cisco Systems Inc., Google Inc., Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP, and others. Moreover, presence of prominent service providers such as AT&T; Corporation; Verizon Communications Inc.; Comcast Corporation; Cox Communications Holdings LLC; Telef³nica USA Holdings LLC among others are expected to drive the North America regional market over the forecast period.
Europe was estimated as one of the largest markets with Germany being its major contributor followed by U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for high-speed and bandwidth-intensive applications such as big data, cloud computing, and video streaming is expected to drive the growth of FSO equipment market.
- Growing number of data centers across the globe is also anticipated to fuel the demand for FSO equipment in near future.
- Proliferation of 5G networks is expected to create new opportunities for FSO equipment market in coming years.
- Rising number of fiber optic cable cuts due to natural disasters and accidents are likely to boost the demand for FSO systems as they are less affected by such incidents as compared with traditional telecom infrastructure technologies such as copper wiring or microwave links.
