This industry research report identifies Danaher (Fluke Networks), EXFO, and Yokogawa Test & Measurement as the key vendors in the global OTDR market. A comprehensive analysis of this market is also presented by product (handheld OTDR, full-feature OTDR, and fiber break locator), by end-user (telecommunication and broadband, private enterprise network, cable TV, and military and aerospace), and by geography (the Americas, APAC, and EMEA).
Overview of the global OTDR market
According to Technavio’s research analysis, the transition from copper cables to fiber optic networks will be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the global OTDR market during the forecast period. Our market research analysts predict that this market will grow at a CAGR almost 13% by 2021. Optical fibers are lightweight, low-priced, and non-flammable and can transmit higher bandwidths than copper wires. The utilization of fiber optics in the telecommunication sector offers improved information security since these fibers are dielectric and do not radiate energy, which allows the better preservation of information in transit. Industrial users use optical fibers to store mission-critical data on cloud across different locations and for continuous video conferencing applications. With the increase in fiber installation projects across the world owing to the infrastructure projects undertaken by the utilities and municipalities, the demand for fiber optics will increase in the coming years. This in turn, will propel the OTDR market share.
In terms of geographic regions, the Americas will be the major contributor to the OTDR market throughout the forecast period. Factors such as the rise in number of data centers, the growth of the communication industry, and rise in the utilization of internet applications, will contribute to the growth of the market in this region.
