[210+ Pages Report] According to Facts and Factors, the global fiber optics market size was valued at USD 4,528.5 million in 2021 and is predicted to increase at a CAGR of 9.5% to USD 7,896 million by 2028. The study examines the market in terms of revenue in each of the major regions, which are classified into countries.
A fiber optic is a flexible, transparent fiber made of extruded glass (silica) or plastic that acts as a waveguide or "light pipe" to carry light between two ends of the fiber. It's a cylinder-shaped dielectric waveguide that transports light down its axis using total internal reflection. The light travels via total internal reflection through a transparent core surrounded by a transparent cladding material with a lower index of refraction. The fiber acts as a waveguide as a result of this phenomenon. The demand for internet around the world, combined with the growing requirement for FTTx, is propelling the fiber optics industry forward. Growing wireless communication systems, on the other hand, are limiting market expansion.
IoT refers to the Internet-based interconnection of computing devices such as printers and video projectors, allowing them to send and receive data. It comprises a network of linked devices with sensors that use smart apps to control, direct, and gather data. Door locks, thermostats, wall electrical plugs, light switches and bulbs, intercoms, security cameras, and integrated control systems are all examples of IoT. These applications will necessitate high-speed Internet access, which will fuel the fiber optics market since these fibers serve as the optical medium for data transfer in Internet-enabled applications. The introduction of wireless technology to exploit the internet is the most basic difficulty facing fiber-optic cable makers. Wireless technology has improved in terms of speed and features as a result of technological advancements. Wireless local area network (WLAN) has become the most preferred method of accessing the Internet in both the household and commercial sectors, indicating a huge market shift towards wireless technology.
Since the advent of the COVID-19 virus in December 2020, global effects of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have already begun to be felt, and the 5G Fiber Optic Cable industry will be considerably impacted. COVID-19 has three primary effects on the global economy: it directly affects production and demand, disrupts supply chains and markets, and has a financial impact on enterprises and financial markets. Wuhan, home of Fiberhome, YOFC, and Accelink, among other enterprises, has the highest concentration of fiber optics supply chain companies, accounting for 25% of global optical fiber production capacity. Demand is normally low during the early stages of a COVID-19 pandemic, but production continues at a reduced rate.
The complete research study looks at both the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the fiber optics market. Both the demand and supply sides of the market have been investigated. The demand side study examines market income in various regions before comparing it to all of the major countries. The supply side research examines the industry's top rivals, as well as their regional and global presence and strategies. Each major country in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa, and Latin America is thoroughly investigated.
The global fiber optics market is segregated based on Fiber Type, Cable Type, and Application.
Communication (telecom, premises, utility, CATV, military, and industrial) and non-communication fiber optics markets have been established (sensors and fiber optic lighting). The worldwide fiber optic market's communication segment is predicted to be the largest. The growing number of internet users is a primary factor driving the growth of the fiber optics market in the communication category.
The global market is divided into glass and plastic fiber types. Glass is the most popular fiber type in fiber optics due to rising demand from a range of applications. The market for glass fiber optics is fueled by its high performance and simplicity of availability.
