Fiber Optic Cable Market Trends


Growing need for improved connectivity in residential and commercial segment to boost market growth


Flexible fibre optic cables are used to transmit large amounts of digital content over long distances and with excellent performance, which increases demand for them in the digital content industry. The increase of data traffic from numerous sources, including the internet, e-commerce, computer networks, and multimedia (voice, data, and video), has made a greater bandwidth transmission medium necessary for such massive amounts of data. Thus, the widespread adoption of fibre optic cable across a wide range of end-use sectors would fuel the expansion of the market.


Further, Improved telecom and broadband access will increase living standards by promoting tourism and job creation in the Islands. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands will receive quicker, more dependable mobile and landline communication services via the new network, on par with other regions of the nation. Fiber optic cables are also being chosen to support the bandwidth levels catering to advanced technologies like 5G, Big Data, and IoT that heavily rely on real-time data collection and transfer due to their security, scalability, and unlimited bandwidth potential to handle the enormous amount of backhaul traffic being generated. The introduction of 5G is anticipated to increase capacity and reduce latency directly to networks.


Additionally, fibre optic cable is unaffected by changes in temperature, unfavourable weather, or moisture. For instance, communication continues if it comes in contact with rainfall since a fibre cable has no metallic components, thus if lightning strikes it, the electrical surge would not spread. Because it can withstand challenging weather conditions without experiencing performance changes, it is therefore preferred for tough situations like outdoor, long-distance, and industrial applications. Hence, enhanced the Fiber Optic Cable market CAGR across the globe in the recent years.


However, increasing demand for faster internet speed among people is another factor driving the growth of the Fiber Optic Cable market revenue.
