Market Introduction

The global ribbon fiber optic market valued at market size of USD 2,589.5 Million in 2020, and is expected to reach USD 5,384.6 Million by 2027. The global ribbon fiber optic market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 11.3% over the forecast period.

Huge growth in the number of data centers, is one of the most important factors driving the demand for network equipment and materials at a huge pace. Additionally, increased data traffic volume has resulted in urgent need for optical fiber networks in data centers to be enhanced for higher capacity usage. Governments of various countries, across the globe are also investing huge amount of funds, towards the development of telecommunication infrastructure to promote digitization. These factors are expected to fuel the market growth to a great extent.

Among other regions, Asia pacific is expected to dominate the market with the largest share in 2020. Asia-Pacific has witnessed a boom in telecommunication industry in the past few years. Continuous growth in data traffic volume, due to growing digitization is the most important factor, attributed to the dominance of Asia pacific region in ribbon fiber optic market.

Global ribbon fiber optic market is a moderately fragmented market, with the presence of international and local players across various regions. The market players are focusing on development of additional features in ribbon fiber optics, in order to provide better bandwidth and data speed to the users. Companies are making efforts to bundle the maximum number of fibres into the smallest possible cable to maximise fibre density and duct space utilisation. These developments by market players, are expected to provide competitive edge to the companies.

Growth Influencers

Growing numbers of data centers across the globe

Continuous increase in the number of data centers, is one of the most important factors driving the growth of market. Growing trend of cloud storage, internet of things, data analytics, have resulted in this growth. Additionally, governments of various countries are offering tax incentives to market players, in order to promote digitization. These factors are expected to create enormous opportunity in the ribbon fiber optic market. Additionally, introduction of 5G technology has also resulted in high-speed data transfer, which is also expected to fuel the growth for ribbon fiber optic market.

Increased demand for improved internet speed and highest bandwidth

With the introduction of HD technology & OTT services, the demand for fiber optics is growing at a huge pace. As compared to an ordinary technology, HD technology videos require four times more bandwidth and internet speed. Ribbon fiber optic has the capability to accommodate higher bandwidth with faster speed. Due to these technological advancements, the demand for ribbon fiber optic market is expected to grow at a huge pace, in the forthcoming years.

Fragile nature of ribbon fiber optic is expected to constraint the market growth

Fiber optic cables are fragile as compared to copper cables, resulting in more chances of damage. Also, the trouble process required for fiber optic cables are completely different, than process followed for copper cables. The ribbon fiber optic has very limited motion capability. The fiber optic can move in longitudinal axis, also known as preferential bending, any other motions can cause damage resulting in loss of power.
