COVID-19 Creates Uncertainty in Resources and Capital for Construction of Optic Networks
The global fiber optic cable market is predicted to undergo a recession period, due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. Increased number of morbidity and mortality rates have caused a slowdown in revenue generation activities and affected the construction of fiber optic cable networks. Due to the high prevalence of COVID-19 cases in Western Europe, the construction of Fiber to the home (FTTH) networks has been temporarily halted. On the other hand, companies in the U.S. fiber optic cable market are gaining momentum for the construction of 5G network across cities. Thus, the extent of economic slowdown and the demand for optical products is varying as per different countries.
Uncertain ramifications of coronavirus are anticipated to cause a global recession with the issue of short-term unavailability of resources and capital for the construction of optic networks.

Companies in the market for fiber optic cables are increasing their focus in developing economies, since governments are increasing efforts to fund projects of fiber optic networks in the transportation infrastructure.
Transportation of Large Digital Content through FEC Fuels Demand for Fiber Optic Cables
Advancements in technology are being observed in the fiber optic cable market in order to support the transport of huge volumes of digital content. The increasing use of direct detection techniques between transmitters and receivers is another key driver that is fueling market growth. As such, the fiber optic cable market is estimated to cross ~US$ 15 Bn by the end of 2030. Thus, coherent detection techniques such as forward error correction (FEC) are some of the game changers that are deploying high-speed data transfers.
The Google Fiber project is catching the attention of the U.S. companies in the market for fiber optic cables, where the project focuses on revamping the cities’ Internet network. The U.S. companies in the market for fiber optic cables are focusing on building state-of-the-art networks that are capable of transferring large gigabits of data within seconds.
High Capacity Base Transceiver Stations Hold Potentials to Solve Network Outage Issues
The fiber optic cable market is estimated to register a striking volume CAGR during the forecast period. Moreover, the telecommunication industry in developing countries such as Ghana is undergoing a significant change, which has triggered the demand for robust fiber optic cable networks. As such, the IT & telecommunication industry dictates the highest revenue among all industries in the market landscape. However, frequent network outages are some of the biggest challenges that operators need to address. Hence, establishing state-of-the-art optical plants, correct system configurations, and high capacity base transceiver stations are among few solutions that can solve the issue of network outages.
Companies in the fiber optic cable market are adhering to government regulations to bolster their credibility in the market. For instance, mobile network operators (MNOs) in Ghana opine that the National Communication Authority and Ghana Telecommunication Chambers should collaborate with the MNOs to build uninterrupted fiber optic networks.

Fiber Optic Cable Market: Overview
- According to Transparency Market Research’s latest research report on the global fiber optic cable market for the historical period of 2018–2019 and the forecast period of 2020–2030, the development of new technologies in the telecom industry is expected to boost the global market during the forecast period. Developments in the telecom industry, including introduction of 4G LTE, 5G, and FTTH, have changed the manner in which services are delivered in the fiber optic cable market.
- In terms of revenue, the global fiber optic cable market is estimated to reach the value of ~US$ 15 Bn by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of ~7% during the forecast period
Rising Demand for High-speed Connectivity: A Key Driver
- The global fiber optic cable market has witnessed significant growth over the last few years, due to the rising demand for high-speed connectivity, with the IT & telecommunication end-use industry segment holding a major market share. Industries such as energy & power, healthcare, and aerospace & defense are the leading verticals, in terms of adoption of the fiber optic technology.
- Fiber optic cables have been witnessing high demand for a long time. While single-mode fibers had already witnessed high adoption among end-use industries and consumers, multi-mode fibers gained momentum recently. The deployment of multi-mode fibers in large-scale data centers and cloud services would continue to be high during the forecast period.
- Applications in telecom and defense & aerospace industries, which require fiber optic cables, are anticipated to witness rise in demand during the second half of the forecast period. Improvements in the network technology in recent years have led to high-speed Internet connectivity and access to all applications requiring high-speed data such as videoconferencing, audio and video streaming, and cloud storage.
- Fiber optic cable is the transmission method of choice when designing and implementing a reliable real-time video conferencing system without compromising on the quality of videos, audios, and data
Rising Demand and Technological Advancements in Telecom Industry: the Latest Market Trend
- The global fiber optic cable market is currently being driven by the global paradigm shift toward information-centric communication. Key enablers of the fiber optic cable deployment include continuously increasing demand for data services; propagation of the next-generation broadband know-how, which includes FTTx, LTE, and HSPA; and availability of low-cost tablet PCs and smartphones.
- Fiber optic cable systems are evolving from the point-to-point application to a more complicated architecture. Currently, point-to-point unrepeated and repeated links primarily use two fibers, one in each direction. Availability of low-loss, low-cost couplers or development of transmission/receiving devices makes it possible to transform point–to-point links into a single fiber.
- Multiplexing of various electric signals and transmitting them over a pair of fibers is the next stage of development. Numerous manufacturers have introduced fiber optics multiplex equipment as a substitute for the existing parallel coaxial cable links.
- As for installation in operational applications, use of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) is currently being considered as an option. The military is also using WDM in several of its system applications.
- As a result of these advantages, the demand for fiber optic cables in various end-use industries is increasing. This is expected to boost the global fiber optic cable market during the forecast period.
