Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise (France) and Prysmian Group (Italy) are Leading Players in the Submarine Cable Systems Market
Submarine cable systems include submarine communication and power cables. Submarine power cables are medium- and high-voltage electric cables laid on the seabed for power transmission. These cables are usually insulated with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), low-pressure oil-filled impregnated papers, or resin-impregnated papers. These cables are used to connect offshore renewable energy devices, such as windmills, and to provide power to offshore oil & gas production facilities. Submarine communication or fiber-optic cables are laid on the seabed and are used to connect various regions and continents for communication purposes. These cables are used by telecom providers and private companies, such as Google, Facebook, and Microsoft, to provide services globally. The increasing volume of online content and the growing demand for higher internet speeds have led to a high demand for submarine communication cables. Around 97% of the world’s communication is dependent on subsea fiber-optic cables; only 3% is carried through satellites. The number of strands in a cable is dependent on the length –it could be 4 to 8 for a Transatlantic cable and 200 for a cable across Europe.
The submarine cable systems market is projected to grow from USD 13.8 billion in 2021 to USD 22.7 billion by 2026; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5%from 2021 to 2026. Companies such as Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and Amazon are the major investors involved in the development and laying of submarine communication cables.
