Optical Transceiver Market Dynamics
Driver : Rise in demand for compact and energy-efficient transceivers
The increasing demand for low-cost transceivers, due to energy-efficient characteristics, boosted their sales across telecom and data center applications. Currently, the smaller, cheaper, and energy-efficient optical transceivers have great demand in the market. Since the launch of the CFP module, various improvements in the technological segment have resulted in the development of compact form factors. Data centers and enterprises require longer reach and high rates of data transmission, which led to an increase in port density and efficient power consumption. This is enough to increase the market growth for low-cost optical transceivers. The surge in demand for low-cost transceivers boosted the market for this segment with offerings from recognized players, such as Broadcom (US) that offers cost-effective SFF optical transceiver modules for data center applications, Lumentum (US) offers SFP+ optical transceiver modules for metro networks, Accelink (China) offers multi-channel 100/400G optical transceivers for datacom application.
The manufacturers of optical transceivers are concentrating more on R&D for serving different applications in the metro network, data center interconnect, long haul applications, and others, which require optical transceivers to be compatible with the complex network. Optical transceiver OEMs such as Fujitsu Optical Components (Japan) and Broadcom (US) are companies offering transceivers that are compact and consume little power. This trend is expected to increase the market growth of small and compact optical modules due to their high range of data connectivity at a faster speed. Hence, it can be said that, due to the reduced package size, accelerated deployment in the datacom and telecom applications and dependency on the already decided standards (IEEE), the strategy of cost leadership and continuous development of smaller and more energy-efficient modules provide large growth potential for the optical transceiver market.
Restraint: Increase in network complexity
Data center networks comprise several layers, including the core, spine (distribution layer), and leaf (access layer). Transceivers are distributed across these layers. Because the switches in these layers are frequently swamped with data traffic, the receiver units of transceivers may experience delayed data packet delivery. All these factors generate a need for more compact form factors to enable compatibility and increase space inside the network. The current network infrastructure is fragmented, focused more on domain-specific growth than the consumer-centric joint approach. The companies need to adopt an innovative and network-oriented approach to minimize the network complexity, which acts as a restraint for the growth of the optical transceiver market.
Opportunity : Expansion of telecom infrastructure in developing economies
The expansion of telecommunication infrastructure will have a substantial effect on developing countries in a positive way. With the advent of IoT, AI, and Big Data, there is an increasing demand for smart devices and other connected applications. The interconnected technologies across telecommunication sectors play an important role in capturing, translating, and transferring data into meaningful information, which is crucial for the reinforcement of urban infrastructure. The backbone for this kind of infrastructural development is a high-speed fiber optics network, which can transfer enormous amounts of data, at high speed, from one end to another.
The advent of optical transceiver-induced fiber optical networks has made it possible for high-bandwidth and low latency communication across cities, successfully replacing the traditional copper cable network. Developing nations, including China and South Korea, have already updated their network infrastructure by implementing advanced communication networks across their territories. Middle Eastern and African countries are also investing in telecom infrastructures to cope up with the developments regarding the 5G network. 5G is now widely available on some mobile networks in the US, the UK, Japan, Qatar, China, and Kuwait. The implementation of the 5G network requires high-bandwidth oriented fiber optical cables integrated with optical transceivers for secured and reliable data transfers. Therefore, the expansion of telecom infrastructure across developing nations will drive the optical transceivers market in the foreseeable future.
Challenge: Everchanging customer demands for portable devices and better speeds
The increase in the communication capabilities of electronic devices, followed by their growing speed of data transfer, has been enabled by optical transceivers. However, as industries are shifting their focus on developing more compact and portable devices, the major issue for optical transceiver manufacturers lies in meeting the changing demands. Manufacturing compact components will help to reduce the complexity of the network as well as the performance penalty. The companies such as Sumitomo Electric Industries (Japan) and II-VI (US) accepted that COVID-19 impacted the sales leading to more demand fluctuations than usual.
As the market is driven by new product and technology development, the optical transceiver manufacturers are investing a certain percentage of their revenue in the R&D of the respective technology. All these factors act as barriers to justify the return on investments due to the uncertain life cycle of developed technology or product, making standardization difficult from the perspective of the application. Transceivers have applicability in various networks, and as the network complexity acts as a restraint for the optical transceiver market, continuous optimization of the component size is a major challenge for the market.
Ethernet protocol was the largest market for optical transceiver in 2021.
Ethernet is the most common protocol adopted in an optical network as ethernet transceiver modules can support a wider range of transmission speeds, including 10 Mbps/100 Mbps/1000 Mbps and 10 Gbps/25 Gbps/50 Gbps/40 Gbps/100 Gbps/400 Gbps and is hence mostly adopted to implement local area network (LAN). The ethernet protocol held the largest share of the optical transceiver market in 2020. Ethernet transceivers are mainly combined/integrated with ethernet switches while deploying the ethernet network at any facility. The frequently used form factors of ethernet-based optical transceivers include SFP, SFP+, SFP28, 40G QSFP+, QSFP28, QSFP28, and QSFP-DD, and the corresponding data rates of these optical transceivers range from 1 Gbps to 400 Gbps. This wide range of data rates is the key reason for the adoption of ethernet-based optical transceiver modules in network infrastructure varying from small-sized offices to hyper-scale data centers, based on the requirement of the bandwidth.
Optical transceivers supporting data rate 10 Gbps to 40 Gbps hold the largest market for optical transceiver in 2021.
The segment of 10 Gbps to 40 Gbps provides data transmission up to 80 km using single-mode as well as multimode fibers. The 10 Gbps to 40 Gbps range includes data rates such as 10 Gbps, 10.5 Gbps, 11.3 Gbps, 14.025 Gbps, 25 Gbps, 28 Gbps, and 40 Gbps. The data transmission is carried along with a wavelength band of 850 nm, 1310 nm, and BiDi across telecom, data aggregation, backplane, and enterprise-related applications. These transceivers can perform highly reliable operations in data center networks and are optimized for extreme networks such as VDX, SLX, and MLXe switching and routing platforms. Transceivers with data speeds in the range of 10 Gbps to 40 Gbps have form factors such as SFP+, SFP28, QSFP+, QSFP28, and XFP. The growing data center consolidation, higher-performance servers, and increasing application density on virtualized servers drive the network capacity demands to unparalleled levels. Over the last several years, data center networks have transitioned from 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps to accommodate this rapid growth.
The transceiver operating across 850 nm bandwidth hold the largest market for optical transceiver in 2021.
Transceivers operating across the 850 nm bandwidth held the largest share in 2021. Factors such as lower attenuation generated by this band and data accuracy contribute to the growth of this market. Most of the attenuation in fiber is caused by light being scattered by minute variations (less than 1/10th of the wavelength) in the density or composition of the glass. This is called “Rayleigh Scattering.” In fiber, Rayleigh scattering is inversely proportional to the fourth power of the wavelength. This accounts for approximately 90% of the enormous difference in attenuation of light at 850 nm wavelength from that at 1550 nm. The optical transceivers operating in this band need low-cost optical sources and detectors. The 850 nm band of wavelength is suitable for shorter distances for data transmission and ensures proper data accuracy. This wavelength is also considered a semi-covert wavelength as its output produces a red glow. The transceivers of this wavelength include form factors such as SFP, SFP+, SFP28, QSFP28, QSFP+, QSFP56, CFP2, CXP, and QSFP-DD. Multimode fiber is designed to operate at 850 nm.
