TechNavio today launched its report Optical Fiber and Cable Market in China 2011“2014 based on an in-depth study focusing exclusively on China. The report aims to aid decision makers™ understanding of the key trends impacting this market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio™s Networking team said, The need for high-capacity, high-quality, and low-cost materials to fit in compact spaces are being demanded by the network service providers to decrease the cost involved and also to decrease the space occupied by the optical fiber cables. Cable designs for lower construction costs, easier handling, splicing, termination, etc. are being introduced in the market.
According to the report, the demand for higher bandwidths and faster internet service is increasing at an exponential speed. Several services such as web surfing, email, file downloading, online gaming, IPVOD, and videophone need more speed. End-users are demanding these services and hence vendors are investing heavily to provide them and increase market share. The equipment/applications need more bandwidth to provide a rich end-user experience. DSL lines use copper wires and hence are slower and have lower bandwidths. The speed is inversely proportional to length of the copper wire and optical fiber is replacing the traditional DSL lines.
The report also discusses that high initial investment of setting up the optical fiber network has become a major hurdle for the growth of this market.
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 players.
