Market: Key Drivers, Trends, Challenges, and Customer Landscape

The high demand for data centers is notably driving the optical network equipment market growth, although factors such as the lack of OTN standards may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.

Key Market Driver

The high demand for data centers is notably driving the optical network equipment market growth. Optical networking is the core of storage area networking and business connectivity solutions. Traditionally, data centers made use of network resources and technology made available to them. However, a rise in investments in data centers is pushing the demand for new optical modules to meet the demand for high bandwidth, low power, and wider reach. Modern data centers now transfer data at the rate of 10GB or higher. Maintaining such rates of data transfer is increasingly becoming a challenge for copper wire-based electrical interconnects. They now need the latest fiber channel speed steps with high duplex throughput to accommodate the growing requirement of data management.

Analytics applications used for big data analytics and other complex cloud-based applications require high-speed internet connectivity. Data centers owned by Amazon, Google, Facebook, and Microsoft are equipped with energy-efficient and high-performance storage infrastructure. Fiber-optic network hardware is a crucial element of these data centers. This will drive the global market during the forecast period.

Significant Market Trends

The emerging new-age technologies and their requirements for scaling business opportunities for the market are emerging trends. The sensor network and growing penetration of the IoT are expected to have a positive impact on the growth of the global market. The success of emerging technologies such as the IoT is dependent on the scope of services that the technology provides to the users. To ensure the delivery of optimum service, the IoT needs to have high-speed connectivity, which is possible only with the use of a fiber network. Therefore, a fiber network plays a crucial role in the IoT. 

The IoT will make extensive use of optical network hardware, as optical networks form the very foundation of enhanced data sharing and high-speed connection. The technology will boost optical network hardware revenues by stimulating demand for optical fiber connections for high-speed internet. Optical network hardware can also enable cost-effective scaling options for internet infrastructure to accommodate growing network traffic. Hence, such factors are expected to positively impact the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

Major Market Challenge

The lack of OTN standards is a major challenge impeding market growth. In the initial stages of technology implementation, key features such as mapping of client signals, performance monitoring, fault detection, and isolation were missing. Market vendors used their methods for mapping client traffic, performance monitoring, and fault detection or isolation. Single carrier networks using equipment from a single vendor did not face any issues of standardization. However, the growth, expansion, and interconnection across networks gave rise to issues related to standardization.

The lack of set standards made WDM more of a liability. The lack of a common mapping structure forced carriers to de-multiplex client traffic into the lowest form at the carrier boundaries. Furthermore, the non-availability of standard fault detection and alarm indication meant that faults could not be communicated to other portions of the network or over carrier boundaries. This created a gap, with consumers complaining about poor signals and the carriers not knowing the fault. These concerns are extremely problematic for the functioning of a network and the selling of mission-critical services. Hence, such factors will hamper the market's growth during the forecast period.

North America accounts for the largest share of the global market. The region has been witnessing a significant surge in demand for fiber-optic connections from residential as well as business customers. The communications industry is booming because of the use of the internet for purposes such as online gaming, social media, video chatting, and online shopping. This has created a high requirement for bandwidth from the metros and urban cities. The use of bandwidth in finance, media, and automation has significantly enhanced. Furthermore, the advent of the IoT will also propel the demand for seamless data transmission, which requires high bandwidth. All these factors are expected to enhance the adoption and need for optical transport networks, which will create the demand for optical network equipment during the forecast period.

Many cloud service providers, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft, and Google, are based out of the US. They have a strong presence in the US and have multiple data centers in different states. The increasing demand for cloud services is one of the factors that drive the growth of the market in the region. The demand for cloud services is increasing due to their benefits, such as the ability to scale resources as per the needs of a customer. Cloud services also reduce the need for organizations to employ multiple IT specialists as they do not have to manage their own infrastructure. Public cloud service providers can manage multiple tenants in a single data center. However, managing multiple connections from different tenants requires high bandwidth for cloud data center operations. As a result, cloud service providers are looking to implement high-bandwidth networking solutions in their data centers. Furthermore, organizations are looking to use multi-cloud solutions to avoid vendor lock-in and to keep the overall cloud costs in check. Hence, such factors are expected to drive the market's growth in the region during the forecast period.
