The fiber optics market is expected to grow from $3.2 billion in 2024 to USD 6.8 billion by 2029 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 16.4% from 2024 to 2029 according to a new report by MarketsandMarkets.
This market's growth is driven by growing internet penetration and data traffic, rising deployment of data center facilities worldwide, and increasing demand for high bandwidth. The increasing promotion of advanced technologies such as big data, machine learning, and Al analytics among internet users worldwide is expected to play a major role in driving the growth of the fiber optics market. The increasing multimedia consumption leads to massive data creation and replication worldwide.
The rising amount of data generated is expected to increase the deployment of new fiber optic cables and subsystems. According to the Digital Economy Report 2021 by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), about 64.2 zettabytes of data were created or replicated. Also, the global data creation and replication is expected to experience a 23% growth from 2020-2025. The rise in data creation is expected to increase the deployment and expansion of servers, storage racks, and data center facilities worldwide, fueling the fiber optics market growth from 2024 to 2029.
