RF-over-Fiber: Global Market Analysis & Outlook to 2023 - Rising Demand for Fiber Optic Cables for Higher Bandwidth & Durability
DUBLIN, Aug. 7, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
The "RF-over-Fiber Market by Component, Frequency Band (L, S, C, X, KU, and KA), Application (Telecommunications, Radar, Navigation, Broadcast, and Broadband), Vertical (Civil and Military), and Geography - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The RF over fiber market is expected to grow from USD 336.3 million in 2018 and reach USD 566.1 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 10.97% between 2018 and 2023.
The growth of this market is propelled by the rise of 4G, LTE advanced, and other new standards, along with the increased spectrum efficiency. One of the key restraining factors for the market is the high installation cost of RFoF products.
This report describes drivers, restraints, opportunities, and challenges pertaining to the RF over fiber market. In addition, it analyzes the current market scenario and forecasts the market till 2023, including the market segmentation based on component, frequency band, application, vertical, and geography.
The market, considered in this report has been classified on the basis of frequency bands, namely, L, S, C, X, Ku, and Ka. The L band is expected to be the largest market based on frequency band by 2023, which has been the most commonly deployed frequency band across the world. L-band RF over fiber solutions find their applications in low earth orbit satellites, military satellites, and terrestrial wireless communications such as GSM mobile phones.
RF over fiber products can be used in applications such as telecommunications, broadband, broadcast, radar, and navigation. The report provides a description of each of these application areas of RFoF. Telecommunications is expected to account for the largest share of the microwave transmission equipment market between 2018 and 2023. The emergence of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and machine-to-machine (M2M) communication solutions is also expected to boost the growth of the RF over fiber market for telecommunications applications during the forecast period.
The RF over fiber market for the civil vertical is expected to grow at the highest rate between 2018 and 2023. The civil vertical is driven by the expansion of LANs and data centers as electronic data transmission has become an essential requirement at workplaces. The rising investments in building new data centers and upgrading them; increasing use of big data analytics and IoT technology; and growing need for data center collocation and managed services are the factors driving the growth of the RFoF market for the civil vertical.
APAC accounted for the largest share of the global RF over fiber market in 2017. The demand for RFoF products in this region is largely driven by the increased demand for higher bandwidth data services from a large number of smartphone users in this region, particularly in China and India. These 2 countries are among the largest adopters of smartphones, and the consumption of mobile data is also significantly high in India and China.
The increaing government projects and infrastructure developments for the expansion of networks such as FTTH, FTTC, and FTTB will also drive the demand for RFoF products in Asia Pacific. The increasing expenditure on smart devices and the growing use of internet applications, such as video streaming, data transfer, IoT, and OTT content, have led to the growth of the RFoF market in APAC. APAC is estimated to exhibit the highest growth rate in the RF over fiber market during the forecast period.
A few major companies operating in the RF over fiber market are Finisar (US), HUBER+SUHNER (Switzerland), Emcore (US), Gooch & Housego (UK), Seikoh Giken (Japan), Apic Corporation (US), DEV Systemtechnik (Germany), Foxcom (Jerusalem), Glenair (US), Optical Zonu (US), and Vialite Communication (UK). These companies have developed innovative products that can be served in the RF over fiber market.
