According to a new study published by Polaris Market, the global Fiber Optics Market is anticipated to reach USD 7 billion by 2026. The market for Fiber Optics is propelled by factors including, increasing penetration of internet, rising government funds for the development of broadband infrastructure, and intense research investments by the companies for development of innovative and new technology in the fiber optic to enable cost-savings.
The plastic optic fiber market is expected to notice a high growth during the projected period. The core material (polymer) used for construction of plastic optic fiber is different from the material (glass) used in single mode and multimode. This provides a dynamic application and helps in saving cost. Further, the telecommunication application segment is dominating the market for fiber optics attributed to the escalating demand for internet in developing economies. This segment is expected to witness constant growth owing to growing telecommunication industry particularly in Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa region.
