Dark Fiber Market Definition
Dark fiber can be acknowledged as a fresh optical fiber, and it is labeled as dark as no faint pulses are transmissible through it. The dark fiber is broadly employed in the telecom and network communications industry. Point-to-multipoint or point-to-point configurations are believed as general means to line up and establish dark fiber networks. Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) is acting as a massive element in the expansion and embellishment of dark fiber networks.
Dark Fiber Market Dynamics
In the current times, the rapid adoption of the internet of things (IoT) and other cloud-based applications is majorly boosting the demand of dark fiber in the global market, thereby expected to escalate the global market of dark fiber in the near future.
With the same token, the rising need of Video-on-Demand (VoD) services and audio-video services are further estimated to accelerate the growth of the global dark fiber networks market in the years to come.
On top of that, in the present day, the expeditious penetration of internet services as well as increasing demand for high speed internet connectivity and adoption of optic technology devices are also playing a major role in elevating the demand of dark fiber in the global market. Attributing to which, the global dark fiber market is projected to observe major breakthroughs in the forthcoming future.
In addition to that, the swiftly flourishing ITES, IT, BFSI and telecom industry, in the modern age, is likely to further shoot up the demand for the dark fiber over the forecast period. Thus, the global dark fiber market is projected to grow substantially in the given timeframe. Although lack of funding by governments and regulatory authorities as well as cooperatives is anticipated to hold back the demand of dark fiber across the global markets.
Along with that, the expensive costs of installation of dark fiber network, and related concerns of interception and breaches are some other potential restraints which are likely to hamper the overall growth of the global dark fiber market.
Nonetheless, the constant developments and upgrades in technologies, untapped potential in emerging markets, and acquisitions and mergers still provides the favorable growth opportunities for the dark fiber market in the coming years.
