DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Active Optical Cables: Market Forecasts - 2019 to 2029" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
In this latest report, the analyst provides Active Optical Cables Market Forecasts in the new world of hyperscale data centers, 200/400G transmission, and embedded optics. The analyst has been providing coverage of the active optical cable (AOC) market longer than any other established industry analysis firm and has issued analysis and market forecasts dating back over ten years. This report also examines whether AOCs can find any permanent and substantial markets beyond the data center - for example in high-performance computing, the military, and telecommunications. The analyst also discusses whether video/consumer AOCs - can ever grow beyond niche status.
At the core of this report are our rolling ten-year forecasts, presented in both volume and value terms, with breakouts by type of AOC (single-channel, breakout AOCs), speeds, MSAs, type of fiber, cable length, etc. The report begins with an analysis of the current product and technology associated with AOCs, and then to the role of AOCs in data centers and elsewhere. This report also provides a chapter on supply chain and marketing considerations in the AOC space.
