Rising market for fiber optics due to their high performance and reliability. Fiber optics technology was invented to replace copper cables. As copper cables are heavy and bulky, they are difficult to manage physically. Furthermore, electromagnetic interference (EMI) limits copper's performance and reliability because of the nature of electrical signals. In optical communications, fiber optics and shielded end casings are used, which help provide immunity to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference.
"Plastic fiber optics is expected to have the second largest market during the forecast period."
Plastic optical fibers degrade or become yellowish over time and cannot withstand harsh environments. These fibers can only transmit a narrow visible light spectrum from 400-700 nm. Due to this, plastic optical fibers are preferred more for decorative and illumination applications such as trim lighting, backlighting, and lighting for pools, museums, and galleries. These optical fibers provide high vibration resistance and flexibility and are highly suitable for industrial and automotive lighting.
"Multi-mode fiber optics is expected to grow with the second largest market during the forecast period."
Multi-mode fiber optcs is ecpcted to have second largest market growth during the forecast period. The high dispersion and attenuation rate associated with this type of fiber, the quality of the signal is reduced over long distances. The wavelengths of multi-mode fibers are in the range of 850 nm to 1300 nm. In a multi-mode fiber, the core-to-cladding diameter ratio is 50:125 μm and 62.5:125 μm. Multi-mode fibers are typically used for short-distance data and audio/video applications in LANs.
"North America is the second largest market during the forecast period."
The fiber optics market in North America is expected to have at a significant market share during the forecast period. In North America, the increasing number of datacenters is driving the fiber optics market growth. Optical fiber helps to interconnect two or more data centers that are located thousands of kilometers away from each other. These optical fibers can transmit large sets of data over long distances, with higher transmission rates and lower latency.
