"We expect demand for optical equipment to continue rising," said Jimmy Yu, Vice President at Dell'Oro Group. "Although the shift away from legacy optical transport equipment will continue to weigh down the market's top line revenue, we foresee a rising use of WDM systems as service providers continue to expand their fiber footprint and Internet content providers continue to install more optical transport capacity between their global data centers," continued Yu.

Additional highlights from the Optical Transport 5-Year Forecast Report:

  • The cumulative spend on optical equipment during the next five years is rojected to be $75 billion.
  • Due to service providers' plans for faster mobile (5G) and fixed (Gfast, 10G PON, and DOCSIS 3.1) broadband speeds, requiring fiber to reach closer to end users, demand for WDM systems will increase the most in metro access and aggregation.
  • Data center interconnect (DCI) is forecast to account for 18 percent of WDM systems revenue by 2022.
