What are the main uses and regions of global hybrid fiber connectors?
According to the prediction of relevant agencies, by 2025, the global demand for hybrid optical fiber connectors will be 19,487,700 units, and the market size will reach 1,067.8 million US dollars. The average CAGR from 2018 to 2025 is 7.7%.
The industry's growing demand for high-performance connectors ensures adequate optical, mechanical, and environmental performance for equipment across industries such as military and aerospace, oil and gas, and railways. Due to their resistance to dust, chemicals, immersion, vibration, and humidity, these connectors are mainly used in extreme conditions and environments.
As the unstable environment, including aircraft fuel cells or other applications where volatile gases may be present, continues to expand the demand for non-sparking and stable media, it will bring more growth channels for the industry and will significantly promote the development of this market. In addition, the demand for enhanced optical performance and additional attributes such as operating conditions, mechanical and environmental constraints, maintenance plans and reliability requirements is also expected to drive the market further growth in the coming years.
Hybrid fiber connectors are mainly used in medical, BSFI, legal, retail, advertising & media, automotive and transportation, agriculture, production, and other major verticals. In addition, based on military and aerospace applications, the market has been divided into applications such as secure communications, weapon systems, surveillance systems, optical computing, drones, and military vehicle sensing. From a revenue perspective, military and aerospace applications accounted for the majority of the market in 2017. For most verticals, hybrid fiber connector technology means most of the network infrastructure and database management systems in the entire centralized substructure.
Fiber component designers and related cable manufacturers play an important role in research and development to provide novel technologies. By emphasizing the enhanced capabilities of fiber and connector systems, and working with other designers and assembly & test companies to ensure supply, designers can provide new revenue streams for fiber manufacturers. Leading companies are vertically integrated throughout the supply chain to achieve product supply, increase revenue, and enhance competitive advantage.
Oil and gas applications are further divided into materials sensing, high-bandwidth communications, and other related applications. At the same time, railway applications are further divided into railway maintenance, speed monitoring, and dynamic load calculation applications. Significant growth in oil and gas, industrial, automotive, and railway applications is expected, primarily due to its growing popularity in dynamic manufacturing and material sensing applications. In addition, these primary-use industries require interconnect systems to operate efficiently in harsh environments and are highly motivated by hybrid connectors and adapters.
Based on the region, the market can be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. Manufacturers around the world are working tirelessly to provide durable, reliable, and quality products. In 2017, due to the high technology adoption rate, the number of regional leading companies, and the strength of government funding, the North American hybrid fiber connector market share ranked first in the world.
It is expected that North America will continue to dominate the market during the forecast period.
During the forecast period, markets in Asia Pacific and South America are expected to achieve significant growth. Among them, during the forecast period, the Asia-Pacific region will achieve a maximum CAGR of more than 9%. The continued development of technology and the integration of modern manufacturing operations, especially in less developed countries in the Asia-Pacific region, are expected to boost the region's demand for hybrid technology.
The hybrid fiber connector market provides huge business opportunities for major investment companies worldwide; it is expected that in the next few years, major industry players with a stable financial foundation will further strengthen their M & A activities, thereby promoting the steady development of the market.
