Optical Fibers:
Optical fibers are flexible transparent cables made up of high-quality glass, plastic or silica that is used to transmit light signals in the form of rays. They are mainly used for lighting as well as laser transmission and hence find major application in day-to-day life.
Optical Transceivers:
An optical transceiver is an electronic device that enables two-way communication between a source and a destination by modulating light. It consists of an optical fiber that carries digital data or voice signals in the form of rays to be delivered at preassigned addresses.
Application Insights:
The telecom application segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growing demand for data communication services, video-conferencing, and cloud computing is expected to drive the growth of this segment over the coming years. Moreover, optical fiber communications are used in fixed line as well as mobile communications which further boosts its usage across various applications such as telecommunication, data communication & networking and IT & telepresence.
Optical fibers are used in long-range wireless communication which enables high-speed data transfer between communicating devices without any physical contact or transmission through intermediate stations. Optical fibers provide flexibility in deployment options due to their small size; low power consumption; immunity from electromagnetic interference; low maintenance cost; high reliability; ease of installation etcetera leading to increased adoption across telecom applications worldwide.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region has witnessed significant growth in internet users, smartphone users, and mobile data traffic. This trend is expected to drive the demand for optical communication equipment over the next eight years.
The European regional market accounted for a share of more than 15% in 2016 owing to high investments made by governments across various countries toward research & development activities as well as deployment of new technologies such as 5G and IoT. North America also had a considerable share due to growing adoption of fiber-optic technology that offers higher bandwidth at lower costs than other conventional technologies such as copper wires or wireless links between devices. Moreover, increasing use of cloud services has led telecom service providers (TSPs) across this region to increase their spending on deploying fiber networks that offer higher bandwidth with low latency thus driving industry growth over this region too).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for high-speed data transmission: The growth of data-intensive applications such as big data, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things is driving the need for faster and more reliable communication networks. Optical communication can provide significantly higher bandwidth than traditional networking technologies, making it an ideal solution for these applications.
- Proliferation of 5G networks: 5G is a next-generation wireless technology that promises to deliver significantly higher speeds and bandwidth than current cellular networks. Optical communication will be a key component of 5G networks due to its ability to handle large amounts of traffic quickly and reliably.
- Growing demand for fiber optic cables: Fiber optic cables are becoming increasingly popular due to their superior performance characteristics compared to traditional copper wiring solutions. They are also less susceptible to interference from electromagnetic radiation, making them ideal for deployment in sensitive environments such as hospitals and schools.
