Global Silicon Photonics Market 2016-2020 - Photonics-Electronics Convergence System for Inter-Chip Interconnects - Research and Markets

DUBLIN, August 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Silicon Photonics Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global silicon photonics market to grow at a CAGR of 48.33% during the period 2016-2020.

Global Silicon Photonics Market 2016-2020, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

According to the report, reduction in transportation costs will be a key driver for market growth. The adoption of silicon photonics has benefited the carriers largely. This network structure has allowed them to transport to multiple clients on a single wavelength and preserve their specific requirements. The overall cost of transportation has also fallen, as they don't need separate wavelengths for separate clients, thereby ensuring efficient bandwidth utilization.

Further, the report states that lack of standards and guidelines will be a challenge for the market. In the initial stages of implementation of silcon photonics technology, key features such as performance monitoring, mapping of client signals, isolation, and fault detection were missing.

The vendors in the market use their own methods for mapping client traffic, performance monitoring, and fault detection or isolation. Single carrier networks using equipment from a single vendor did not face any issues of standardization. However, with the growth of the market, expansion and inter-connection across networks gave rise to issues related to standardization.
