The global dark fiber network market is estimated to exhibit a CAGR of 13.1% from 2024 to 2029.
The rapid development of the 5G network and the growing bandwidth needs of enterprises are the main drivers of the market growth. The objective of 5G networks is to deliver extremely low latency, which is necessary for real-time communications, augmented reality, and driverless car applications. Dark fiber networks are dedicated, inactive, and provide low-latency communication, which satisfies the demanding needs of 5G applications. Additionally, dark fiber networks are scalable, service providers can readily increase and grow their network capacity in response to the changing needs of 5G. The ability to scale is essential as 5G networks develop and handle a growing number of users and devices. For instance, based on data from Ookla, LLC, there were 18,731 5G deployments and 157 5G operators globally in 2020.
The proliferation of data-intensive applications, online streaming, and the Internet of Things (IoT) along with the increasing data traffic is expected to support the market growth. A vast amount of data is produced by data-intensive applications including big data analytics, cloud computing, and high-performance computing. Dark fiber networks can provide the reliable and high-capacity network infrastructure needed to meet the increasing demand for data transmission and storage. Additionally, the proliferation of internet streaming services for music, video, and other content has resulted in an increase in data usage. Streaming high-definition video in particular uses a lot of bandwidth. Dark fiber networks offer the necessary capacity to support the seamless and high-quality streaming experience demanded by users. For instance, 23% of all viewing time is spent on live streaming, according to Conviva.
The expansion of data centers and the growth of cloud services and storage solutions propel market growth. Large amounts of data are frequently stored, retrieved, and transferred using cloud services. High-speed and dependable connectivity are essential as more individuals and companies move their data and apps to the cloud. Dark fiber networks, with their ability to provide virtually unlimited bandwidth, are well-suited to meet these requirements. Moreover, low-latency connectivity is essential for cloud-based apps, especially for those that perform real-time or latency-sensitive tasks. Dark fiber is an ideal option for applications that need quick data transfer between users and cloud servers since it is a dedicated, direct optical link with low latency.
Market opportunities for dark fiber networks are created by the advent of edge computing, which is data processing that takes place closer to the source of data generation. There is an enormous market for setting up the infrastructure needed to support edge computing deployments and linking edge sites to data centers. Moreover, strong and low-latency connectivity is necessary for the growth of IoT devices and the creation of smart cities. Dark fiber networks can connect a large number of IoT devices securely and effectively, and also provide the infrastructure required to enable smart city efforts.
However, the market's expansion is hampered by high initial investments and inadequate monitoring mechanisms.
The single-mode segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market over the forecast period. Greater bandwidths can be accommodated by single-mode fiber optic cables as compared to multi-mode fibers. For applications like data centers, long-haul connections, and telecommunications networks that demand high data speeds and long-distance transmission, this makes them a good fit. Additionally, since the core size of single-mode fibers is smaller, signals can be sent over greater distances without experiencing appreciable signal deterioration. Due to this feature, they are perfect for long-distance connections, such as inter-city and international ones.
The multi-mode segment is expected to be the fastest-growing in the market from 2024-2029. Increased usage could be a result of developments in multi-mode fiber technology, such as the creation of higher-grade multi-mode fibers (such as OM4 and OM5). Some of the drawbacks of conventional multi-mode fibers, such as their lower bandwidth and greater modal dispersion, can be resolved by these developments.
The long-haul segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market during the forecast period. Large amounts of data are frequently transmitted over long distances using long-haul connections. Since single-mode fibers can support larger data transmission rates and capacity, they are frequently utilized in long-haul applications and can effectively handle the demands of long-distance communication.
The metro is anticipated to be the fastest-growing segment in the market from 2024-2029. Businesses operating within metropolitan regions require scalable and high-performance connectivity for their operations. Metro dark fiber networks meet businesses' communication demands and ease data transfer between several sites by offering dedicated, private connections.
The glass segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market during the forecast period. Glass is the optimal medium for transferring light signals due to its exceptional optical qualities. As a result of its minimal signal attenuation, light can travel farther distances without experiencing a noticeable loss. For high-performance and long-haul applications, this is essential.
The plastic is anticipated to be the fastest-growing segment in the market from 2024-2029. The cost of manufacturing plastic optical fibers (POFs) is often lower than that of glass fibers. The plastic section can be taken into consideration for particular use cases as there is a strong emphasis on cost reduction, particularly for short-distance applications.
The telecom segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market over the forecast period. As the main channel for data transmission, dark fiber is an essential part of the communications network. The demand for dark fiber networks is rising as the telecommunications sector expands internationally to handle the rising volume of phone, data, and video traffic.
The BFSI is anticipated to be the fastest-growing segment in the market from 2024-2029. Large volumes of data about transactions, client information, and financial analytics are handled by the BFSI industry. The BFSI sector looks for high-bandwidth, low-latency options like dark fiber as data volumes continue to rise to facilitate the transfer of massive datasets between locations.
North America is expected to be the largest region in the global market. The proliferation of data centers and the continuous growth of cloud computing services drive the demand for dark fiber networks to interconnect data centers in North America. For instance, there are 2114 data centers listed on the DataCenterMap, representing all 50 states in the United States.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness rapid growth during the forecast period. The growth of e-commerce and digital payment platforms in the Asia Pacific region requires reliable and high-speed network connectivity. Dark fiber networks contribute to the infrastructure supporting online transactions, digital content delivery, and the overall expansion of the digital economy. For instance, according to a survey by Chinese card payment company UnionPay, China's yearly volume of electronic transactions is USD 434 trillion, with over 80% of daily consumer transactions taking place via mobile platforms.
AT&T Inc., Colt Technology Services Group Limited, Comcast Corporation, Consolidated Communications, GTT Communications, Inc., Lumen Technologies, Inc., Verizon Communications, Inc., Windstream Intellectual Property Services, LLC, Zayo Group, LLC, and Microscan, among others, are some of the key players in the global dark fiber network market.
