Key Market Driver

The increasing data center construction is notably driving market growth. Data center operators are relying on new-age technologies, such as fiber optics networks, with the growth in information traffic and the emergence of the cloud in information centers and applications. Several investments are being made in the construction of information centers, which is increasing the need for fiber optic cables for information transmission.

Furthermore, fiber optic components, such as optical switches, are required for fast and efficient data transmission. Several optic fiber modules are required to connect numerous servers, storage devices, and switches, which increases the need for fiber optic components. Single-mode fibers are more suited for long-distance transmission, whereas multimode optic fibers are preferred for transmission over shorter distances. Thus, with the growing number of information centers, the demand for optical switches is expected to increase at a high rate, which will fuel the market growth during the forecast period.

Significant Market Trend

The transition toward Ethernet fiber optics is a key trend influencing the market growth. Ethernet speeds have evolved to accommodate high speeds of up to 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps. Some firms are also trying to achieve 400 Gbps speeds, which will enable Ethernet-based services. The transition to high-speed Ethernet connectivity can be achieved by sending high-speed Ethernet signals over fiber optic cables. Fiber optics allow the transmission of data over longer distances.

Moreover, the need for faster Ethernet has increased, with the rising demand for Ethernet from data centers and telecommunication firms. Ethernet over fiber cables is an alternative that allows for faster transmission rates and requires a large set of fiber optic components. This, in turn, will support the global market growth during the forecast period.

Major Market Challenge

Issues in optical fiber network deployments may impede market growth. There are significant growth opportunities for communication service providers in the multi-dwelling units (MDUs) category in the housing field. However, there are a few barriers to deploying fiber in MDUs. For example, space constraints and the presence of multiple cable networks increase the media installation time and the cost of the project.

Moreover, creating holes for the addition of conduits, pulling fiber above ceilings and within walls, and making other pathways are factors that result in bottlenecks, especially in brownfield MDUs. This generates a need for NOCs, approvals from customers and residents, and other important state and municipal approval certificates. Therefore, due to the low deployment of fiber cables in MDUs, the need for optical switches is less, which is hampering the growth of the market during the forecast period.
