Active Optical Cable Market Share, Supplier, Competitors and Manufacturers to 2025 Forecast


25th January 2019: Global Active Optical Cable Market is classified on the basis of protocol, form factor, applications, end users, distribution channel and geography. A cabling technology that receives same electrical inputs as that of a traditional copper cable, but the connectors use optical fibre in between them is known as an active optical cable. It comprises control chip, fiber optic transceivers, multimode optical fiber, and modules. It utilizes electrical-to-optical mode of conversion. There is a significant growth rate of the global active optical cable market owing to its speed and distance performance.


Some of the advantages of active optical cable include its higher bandwidth, lighter weight, low power consumption, reliable transport, low bit error rate, etc. The factors that propel the growth of the global market include increasing demand especially in data centres, rapid urbanization & industrialization, growing investment by government to enhance connectivity and rising demand for higher bandwidth networks. On the other hand, there are also factors that may hamper the growth of the market such as high initial investment. Active Optical Cable Market is classified on the basis of protocol as Ethernet, DisplayPort, HDMI,PCI Express (PCIe), InfiniBand, Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), Thunderbolt, USB, and others. Active Optical Cable Market is classified on the basis of form factor as CXP, CX4, CFP,CDFP, QSFP, SFP, and others.
Active Optical Cable Market is classified on the basis of applications as data/communications (routers & switches, storage area network (SAN)), telecommunications (routers, switches), networking (Host Bus Adapters (HBA), network interface cards (NICs), router/switch) and others. Active Optical Cable Market is classified on the basis of end users as data centre, high-performance computing (HPC), telecommunication, consumer electronics, personal computing and others. Active Optical Cable Market is classified on the basis of distribution channel as online stores, specialty stores and others.
In case of geographical region, North America is projected to account a significant share of the Global Active Optical Cable Industry. Some of the key players that fuel the growth of the Active Optical Cable Industry include 3M, Avago Technologies, Amphenol Corporation, Fujitsu, Finisar Corporation, Oclaro, Inc., IBM Corporation, Seimon, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd., Viavi Solutions Inc., and others.
