The global optical interconnect market size is expected to be worth USD 11.63 Billion in 2023. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.7% during the forecast period and reach a value of USD 22.10 Billion by 2028.
An optical interconnect is a system that transmits signals from one part of an integrated circuit to another using light. These interconnects are a crucial topic of study because of the high latency and power consumption that was induced by conventional metal interconnects in transmitting electrical signals across long distances like interconnects that are classed as global interconnects.
MARKET DRIVERS:
The growth of the global optical interconnect market is majorly driven by the rising adoption of cloud databases all around the world. Moreover, cloud-based storage services like storage-as-a-service (SaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offer enhanced scalability by expertly handling and storing complex data for later usage. Whereas these cloud service providers are adopting the developed equipment, which includes optical interconnects for serving high storage capabilities and processing speed, this implementation of optical interconnects in the networking infrastructure is cost-effective, too, owing to the lower power consumption.
The growing demand for advanced bandwidth requirements is the major factor that was driving the growth of the global optical interconnect market. Also, the better functions that these optical interconnects offer when compared to traditional interconnects which are copper-based and the growing bandwidth capacity coupled with the reduced power consumption within data center networks are the factors that will be boosting the growth of the target market over the forecast period. Further, rising network traffic, which is resulting in higher demand for optical interconnect devices for sustaining in the future coupled with the other web applications in cloud computing, are the other factors that are pushing the optical interconnect market's growth.
Nonetheless, growing optical interconnect technologies application areas in the automation sector to handle network tasks that are already done manually are creating lucrative opportunities for the expansion of the players in the global optical interconnect market.
MARKET RESTRAINTS:
However, network connections in long-distance traffic, and loss at high frequencies in electrical lines & fiber optic cables, which are quite high to some extent, are the major restraints that are hampering the growth of the optical interconnect market.
Impact of COVID-19 on the optical interconnect market:
The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global optical interconnect market is very negative. The most affected segment in the market was the utility-owned optical interconnects, which are basically driven by growing financial incentives and regulatory support from governments all over the world. It is because of the current situation around the globe, such as projects in China, the US, Germany, and South Korea getting delayed, and the companies facing short-term operational issues owing to the effect of the pandemic on the supply chain.
