Active Optical Cable Market Overview:

The active optical cable (AOC) improves the performance of the cable by using optical fiber between the connectors. Due to its various advantages, such as its low power consumption, small bend radius, and light weight, AOC cable is becoming more popular as an alternative to copper cables. Many protocols are supported by these cables, making them suitable for applications ranging from high-performance computers to networking and storage. Furthermore, active optical cable transmits data using different protocols, including InfiniBand, USB, and Ethernet. Several governments around the world have invested in active optical cables across all public communication networks and taken several initiatives to improve their country’s network infrastructure, according to active optical cable market analysis. The active optical cable market is expected to grow as the number of hacking incidents in WLAN networks increases. As wireless connections may be damaged by overload and extended users, commercial sectors dealing with voluminous data prefer AOC with high bandwidth and speed. The global active optical cable market is also expected to benefit from the adoption of emerging technologies such as software-defined networking (SDN) and network-function virtualization (NFV).

Various end users are increasingly adopting active optical cables based on Ethernet protocols primarily because they provide virtualized connectivity and minimize errors in switch-to-switch, server-to-switch, and other high-speed storage applications with cost-efficiency. Additionally, these optical cables offer high EMI and resistivity, making them ideal for industrial applications in harsh environments. Optical cables featuring ruggedized construction are gaining popularity across applications such as aircraft system ground stations, avionics system controls, and high-speed control and data systems.

Data is currently the most valuable asset in the world. With many global-level organizations collecting huge volumes of data, electronic devices comprising of high computing power are used for processing and managing such data. As per the Semiconductor Industry Association, the memory segment is the largest growing segment of the semiconductor industry with sales of DRAM and NAND flash products on a rise along with the sales of microprocessors which shall assist in the further proliferation of the semiconductor industry. The introduction of 5G technology has opened new avenues for the growth of this industry considering its utilization in developing an IoT-friendly infrastructure in tech-based applications. With advancements in chip designing technologies per Moore's law has further aided in the fragmentation of the global semiconductor industry.
