Overview of the global optocoupler market
The global optocoupler market is anticipated to grow at a steady rate and will post a CAGR of more than 8% during the forecast period. The increasing adoption of optical wireless distributed antenna system (DAS) will drive the growth prospects for the global optocoupler market until the end of 2021. Network operators are increasingly shifting towards DAS from the cellular network due to major challenges associated with cellular networks such as coverage issue to provide indoor network coverage, throughput issue for high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA), and high-speed uplink packet access (HSUPA), and voice clarity. Also, a DAS systems help to prevent issues such as low signal coverage or congestion.
In terms of geography, the Americas accounted for the maximum market share during 2016 and will continue to dominate the market in the forthcoming years. With the increasing use of the internet for social media, online gaming, video chatting, and online shopping, the communication industry is growing in North America, which, in turn, drives the market’s growth.
