Active Optical Cables Market Report 2009" examines several focus segments generating significant business growth over the next five years. Fifteen separate market segment forecasts, covering four platform types, four bus standards, and five platform categories over a five-year forward time-interval, were analyzed as part of the overall Active Optical Cable (AOC) Market Analysis 2009.
Overall cumulative cable revenue is expected to exceed $8.5 billion (US) from 2009 through 2013 just for the application segments included in this report. Single-year revenue is expected to grow from the present-year level of <$100 million to over $1.1 billion in 2010, then up to over $2.6 billion by 2013. As additional application segments are included in the overall Market Analysis, the total revenue numbers should be expected to increase substantially over these conservative figures.
Total AOC cable count identified in this report should exceed 2 million units in 2009, and grow to over 75 million units by 2013. As in the revenue analysis above, we expect these AOC figures to expand as more application segments are studied, and as better attach rate forecasts become available. Growth in the overall AOC forecast should generate better supplier cost efficiency at both the AOC OEM cable providers as well as with their underlying material supplier communities.
Certain market forces influence changes in AOC attach rates used in this analysis. Several AOC users reported shifting away from copper cables towards AOC alternatives, even when the copper cables were technically cheaper for their shorter cable length application usage. One notable case was IBM’s Roadrunner supercomputer, which reportedly switched entirely to AOC, reporting 55 miles of cables in their first installation. Initial expectations were to use AOC models only for cables 5-10 meters or longer. As more and more customers experience this “Waterfall Effect,” significant increases in the overall AOC attach rate should occur, potentially 2-3x over the volumes included in this report.
Annual fiber shipments for active optical cables is expected to grow from ~13 million meters in 2009 to almost 434 million meters by 2013. Five-year cumulative shipments should total 1040 million meters. Certain OEMs use different designs for cables under 20 meters versus those in the 20-100 meter range. OEMs that target common optoelectronics designs capable of supporting broader cable length ranges will benefit from lower overall product costs as well as increased market response flexibility to changes in customer cable length preferences over time.
