Passive Optical Network Market Segmental Analysis

Global Passive Optical Network Market is segmented by Structure, Component, Application, and Region. Based on Structure, the market is segmented into Gigabyte Passive Optical Network (GPON), Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON), and Wavelength Division Multiplexing Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON).  Based on Component, the market is segmented into Wavelength Division Multiplexer/De-Multiplexer, Optical Filters, Optical Power Splitters, Optical Cables, Optical Line Terminal (OLT), and Optical Network Terminal (ONT).  Based on Application, the market is segmented into FTTx, and Mobile Backhaul. Based on Region, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. 

Analysis by Technology

Based on Technology, EPON segment has dominated the market and are expected to grow exponentially over the forecast year. The demand for internet has grown exponentially in recent years, and with more internet-based applications on the horizon, this demand is expected to reach unprecedented levels. Sensing an opportunity as a result of increasing demand, network providers and internet companies intend to be prepared to handle large data traffics over the network and meet the needs of each individual user. Because it is a point-to-multipoint system, a PON can transmit data more efficiently. The infrastructure requirement in this type of architecture is greatly reduced because the main transmission line can be split up into many small separate lines. There are several versions of PONs, all of which use optical cables and unpowered splitters.

Analysis by Network Element

During the forecast period, the optical network terminal segment in the passive optical network market is expected to grow at an exponential rate. PON can be used for both data-centric networks and full-service voice, data, and video networks. The next generation of access network development. Finally, they can provide the most bandwidth at the lowest cost. According to SQ analysis, telecommunication operators' network-related capital expenditures will need to be increased by at least 60% for the efficient and seamless application of Passive Optical Network technology in the near future from 2021 for a period of 4-5 years, which would be roughly double the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) during the period.

Passive Optical Network Market Dynamics

Driver

  • In comparison to other traditional networks, the growing awareness of global warming has resulted in an increased demand for eco-friendly solutions worldwide. Furthermore, rising demand for safe, secure, and reliable operation, as well as increased digitization, are expected to drive passive optical network market demand.
  • Increased fiber-to-the-home deployments for fast access to data, videos, voice, and services, as well as rising demand for a high-speed network at home for accessing smart systems, are also driving growth. Over the forecast period, demand is expected to be driven further by the increasing penetration of smart grids, e-governance services, and cloud computing.

Restraint

  • The high installation cost at the operator's interface, as well as the limited range of technology, may halt industry growth over the forecast period. Furthermore, the data bandwidth is not declared to individuals, which can slow down transmission speed during peak usage times which is also expected to affect the market over the forecast year.

Passive Optical Network Market SkyQuest Analysis

SkyQuest’s ABIRAW (Advanced Business Intelligence, Research & Analysis Wing) is our Business Information Services team that Collects, Collates, Co-relates and Analyses the Data collected by means of Primary Exploratory Research backed by the robust Secondary Desk research.

According to our analysis, the global passive network (PON) equipment market is expected to grow due to an increasing demand for green network solutions. POL solutions are more environmentally friendly than traditional copper-based Ethernet local area networks. POL eliminates the need for workgroup switches in favour of optical splitters. As a result, it meets HVAC standards because it eliminates the use of thousands of KW of energy and acts as a more cost-effective option. Furthermore, rack mount switches are not required, which reduces the use of non-renewable electrical equipment and lowers power consumption. A passive optical network (PON) connects the WGT with a single fibre and a single type of optic.
