Due to its greater integrity, security, and bandwidth capabilities, fiber-optic media is frequently utilized to deliver communications services to residential and commercial customers. One of the main elements propelling the growth of the market is this. Fiber to the Home (FTTH) and Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) transport networks are increasingly using optical time domain reflectometers (OTDR) as debugging and monitoring tools.
The introduction of smart optical time domain reflectometers with robust wireless connectivity options is expanding their application in a variety of industries for qualifying passive optical network (PON) networks and characterizing point-to-point access and metro fiber networks.
As a result of widespread adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technology and increased use of high-end electronic devices, there is a growing demand for fast and secure telecommunications networks, which is driving market growth for optical time domain reflectometers. The increased focus on 5G network deployment around the world is expected to drive the market for optical time domain reflectometers even further.
Principal Consultant
Rising system utilization for fiber infrastructure performance maintenance, as well as rising applications from emerging nations, will generate new and abundant opportunities, resulting in the market for optical time domain reflectometers expanding over the projection period.
Scarcity of Developments
During the anticipated period, market barriers for the market include slow technology adoption by the cable TV and telecommunications industries, as well as the presence of a large installed base of fiber.
Due to the region's increased investment in the construction of 4G and 5G network infrastructure and the rising demand for internet services, North America will lead the market for optical time domain reflectometers.
Due to the development of cutting-edge network infrastructure, China and India would have the fastest growth in the Asia-Pacific market for optical time domain reflectometers over the projection period. Over the projected period, the region's expanding adoption of optical fiber networks will support the expansion of the market.
FLUKE networks, EXFO, Viavi, Yokogawa, Anritsu, FIBERCORE, AFL Global, and Corning are among the leading participants in the market.
Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer is an electronic instrument used by various organizations to verify the performance of an optical fiber. When a fiber cabling infrastructure is installed by any organization, it is essential to check its performance to protect their business critical applications. By carrying out this certification using OTDR it is guaranteed that the fiber installation meets the design specifications for current and future applications.
The quality and reliability of an OTDR equipment is based upon its accuracy and precision level, range and speed of measurement and its ability to perform under extremes of environmental conditions. OTDR is also used for maintaining the performance of fiber infrastructure.
These days there are various OTDR tools available via which network engineers can themselves carry out verification of fiber cabling.
The OTDR market is expected to have an upward surge in the coming years. There are various factors which will help in expanding the market such as increased demand for high-speed networks and triple play solutions. Due to people shifting to these solutions, new cabling setup needs to be done which have to be verified post installation using OTDR.
This will increase the use of Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (Hand-held). Also, demand for long haul network and requirement of certification for all the fiber optic cables will also lead to higher demand of OTDR services. One more factor which drives the OTDR market is the existence of dark fiber which also needs to be tested during installation which will help them in leasing it out to other carriers.
There can be a few challenges for the growth of OTDR market due to presence of a large installed base of fiber and slower adoption of new technologies by telecommunication and cable TV industry.
