Introduction

Rise in Internet traffic is resulting in the growing demand for fiber optic connectors, globally. The demand for fiber optic cables have imperatively risen in past few years which has resulted in setting up of a large number of cables across cities and countries, which has subsequently driven the market for fiber optic connectors .

Market Dynamics

Fiber optics can carry more information over longer separations, so it is asset to carry the data more securely. In addition prices of fiber optic cables have declined over the years; however they are still than copper cables, which is the major reason behind restricted adoption of this technology.Besides, its maintenance cost is also higher which further ads to the limited adoption of fiber optic cables. However, higher bandwidth offered by fiber optic cables and secure channel provides potential opportunity for market players over the forecast period.
