Cable Blowing Equipment Market Trends
Drivers: Rise in demand for throughput and reliable internet connectivity
Fiber optics has changed the face of connectivity by offering high speed and better reliability. Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) has gained significant traction due to its high reliability, high throughput, and future-proof last-mile connections. With the help of a cable blowing machine, fiber can be blown into thousands of feet in a day.
With increasing network traffic, telecommunication operators are adding transmission bandwidth to existing optical networks or purchasing and deploying additional systems to address throughput demands. The increase in the number of internet users and the rise in demand for online streaming has led to the requirement for more bandwidth per user, thereby contributing to the demand for fiber optic cables in core networks.
Fiber optic components, such as Active Optical Cables (AOCs), were invented to replace copper cables. As copper cables are heavy and bulky, they are difficult to manage. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) limits the performance and reliability of copper cables.
AOCs use optical fiber communications and shielded end casings to provide immunity to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference; the weight of AOCs is very low compared to copper cables, and thus, there are limited chances of switching ports being damaged. Additionally, AOCs require less maintenance and have improved server utilization.
Furthermore, AOCs provide error-free transmission in a densely packed system. As a result, they are used in supercomputers, consumer electronics, and high-definition TVs, among other applications. Thus, the rising demand for bandwidth and reliability is contributing to the growth of the fiber optic cables market, which, in turn, is driving the demand for cable installation machines such as cable blowing equipment.
Restraint: Technical limitations of older infrastructure
The ability to transfer data at high speed is constrained in older infrastructure, particularly in networks built on copper cables. Older infrastructure may not be compatible or capable of supporting advanced technologies such as 5G, IoT, and other emerging applications that require high-speed and reliable connectivity.
Copper-based networks also require more power to transmit signals over long distances than fiber optic networks. This results in higher operational costs and a larger environmental footprint. Furthermore, older infrastructure finds it difficult to integrate smoothly with newer protocols and technologies, such as advanced communication protocols, data transfer standards, and modern control systems.
The lack of compatibility between the existing infrastructure and these emerging technologies hinders seamless integration, leading to operational inefficiencies and potential performance issues. This could result in incompatibilities and necessitate the use of extra tools or substitutions. These infrastructures are also unable to meet the needs of modern communication and data transmission requirements due to their technical constraints, especially if they are built on copper wires. For this reason, upgrading to more sophisticated technologies, such as fiber optic networks, is necessary.
Opportunities: Increasing penetration of FTTH/FTTB networks
FTTx is any broadband network architecture that uses fiber optics as the optical medium to transmit information in a local loop used for last-mile telecommunications. FTTx includes FTTH, FTTP, fiber to the node (FTTN), fiber to the curb (FTTC), and fiber to the building (FTTB).
Fiber cable has evolved as an essential component for network evolution because of its ability to accommodate higher bandwidth with greater internet speeds. Communication applications are also advancing rapidly, and each of them has features that require higher bandwidth and speed. A few of these advanced applications are video technology, OTT (over-the-top content), and IoT. The increasing use of these applications leads to the need for more network architecture, such as FTTH and FTTB.
Video technology has the highest bandwidth consumption. Emerging super high-definition videos require four times more bandwidth than the standard-definition videos. Entertainment provider companies such as Netflix and Amazon Prime have recommended at least 25 Mbps speed to view super HD content over their streaming services. To provide high bandwidth for video technology, network architectures such as FTTH and FTTB are required to provide internet access; this, in turn, is expected to drive the fiber cable market, which acts as the backbone for such network architectures.
This creates market opportunities for cable blowing equipment procurement for fiber cable deployment. IoT is known as the interconnection of computing devices, such as printers and video projectors, through the internet, enabling them to send and receive data. It consists of connected devices such as sensors that control, direct, and collect data by using smart applications from each device. Examples of loT include door locks, thermostats, wall electrical plugs, light switches and bulbs, intercoms, security cameras, and integrated control systems. These applications require high-speed internet services, which drives the fiber optics market, as fiber cables act as the optical medium to transfer information in applications requiring the internet. This leads to the Cable Blowing Equipment Industry Growth.
Challenge: Compatibility of cable blowing equipment with diverse cable types
The cable blowing equipment market faces a significant challenge in accommodating the diverse range of cable types prevalent in the telecommunications and power industries. As technology advances and new cable designs emerge, ensuring compatibility becomes a critical hurdle for manufacturers and operators alike.
The varied characteristics of cables, including different diameters, materials, and construction methods, demand versatile and adaptable cable blowing solutions. Meeting this challenge requires constant innovation in equipment design and functionality to handle the intricacies of diverse cables, ensuring efficient and damage-free installation processes.
As the industry continues to witness rapid developments in cable technology, addressing compatibility concerns will be pivotal for cable blowing equipment providers to maintain their competitiveness and meet the evolving market needs.
