TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Terrestrial Optics Market: Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., Alcatel-Lucent S.A., ZTE Corp., Ciena Corp., and Fujitsu Ltd.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Telecom team said: ”Currently, the adoption of terrestrial optical fiber networks is increasing across the globe as a result of the high demand for internet connectivity. A number of players are entering the market to cater to this increased demand as well as to take advantage of favorable policies and investments in China, the MEA region, and Southeast Asia. In addition, China-based players offer terrestrial optical fiber products at much lower prices than many other vendors, and this has led to price wars among players in the market. Thus, intense market competition and price wars among vendors is an emerging trend in the Global Terrestrial Optics market.”
According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the increasing rollout of fiber optics networks in China and Southeast Asia. Currently, the internet penetration in most Southeast Asian countries is lower than 10 percent. Hence, these countries are deploying fiber optics networks to enable high-speed internet connectivity.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in this market is the increasing demand for terrestrial wireless communication systems. Terrestrial optical communication systems restrict the mobility of users while simultaneously increasing operative expenses; these disadvantages are overcome by satellite (wireless) communication systems, which allow users to communicate on the move and at a lower cost.
The report also includes a discussion of the other vendors operating in this market, such as Cisco Systems Inc., Fiberhome Telecommunication Technologies Co. Ltd., Hengtong Group Co. Ltd., Infinera Corp., Jiangsu Sterlite & Tongguang Optical Fibers Co. Ltd., Nortel Networks Corp., Yangtze Optical Fiber and Cable Co. Ltd. and Zhongli Science and Technology Group Co. Ltd.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
