India Optical Fiber Cables Market

Introduction of the Optical Fiber Cables Market Report

Optical fiber cables consist of plastic or glass threads of wires that have the capacity to transfer data at high speeds. It is the technology that involves the transmission of data using light pulses traveling along with long fiber and is unaffected by electromagnetic interference. The fibers are designed in a way that they facilitate the propagation of light with the optical fiber depending upon the requirement of distance and power of transmission.

Market Dynamic

Key Drivers and Emerging Trends

The key factor driving the growth of the India optical fiber cables market is growing investments in optical fiber cable network infrastructure by the Indian government to increase internet penetration across the nation. Favourable government initiatives such as Digital India and Smart Cities Vision are supplementing growth opportunities in the region. Furthermore, the rising demand for optical fiber cables from the IT & telecom industry, growing adoption of FTTH (fiber to the home) connectivity, rising number of data centers, and the increasing number of mobile devices are some other factors propelling the growth of the market.

The fiber optic cable manufacturers in India are investing in their research & development activities to develop smaller fibers and cables owing to the rising demand for high fiber count cables in reduced diameters by the telecom companies. For instance, in 2020, Prysmian Group released a portfolio of cables that makes use of optical fibers with a diameter of 180µm (micrometers).  Furthermore, in 2020, Narendra Modi, the prime minister of India, inaugurated the submarine optical fiber cable connecting Port Blair and Chennai through video conferencing. This connectivity enables the delivery of faster and more reliable landline and mobile telecommunication services to the Andaman & Nicobar Islands. These factors play a crucial role in augmenting the growth of the optical fiber cables market in India.

Cable Type – Segment Analysis

Based on the cable type, the single-mode cable segment is anticipated to witness a faster CAGR over the forecast period. Single-mode cables have the capability of carrying higher bandwidths and offer users with a high transmission rate in addition to around 50 times longer distance as compared to multi-mode cables. The widespread implementation of 5G, the emergence of the internet of things (IoT) and rise in the adoption of fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) connectivity are some other factors that are significantly supplementing the growth of the single-mode cable segment in the optical fiber cables market in India.

End-User – Segment Analysis

Based on end-user, the IT & telecom segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR over the forecast period. The optical fiber cable is a significant building block in the telecommunication infrastructure. Fiber optics are catering to extensive bandwidth demands, particularly telecommunication companies, and have become the preferred transmission medium. Moreover, the explosion of data traffic from several sources, which includes e-commerce, internet, multimedia (voice, video, and data), and computer networks, has increased the need for a transmission medium that is capable of handling higher bandwidth for vast amounts of information. These factors are contributing to the growth of the IT & telecom segment in the optical fiber cables market in India.
