According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Active Optical Cable Market Report by Connector Type (QSFP, CXP, CDFP, CFP, SFP, and Others), Technology (InfiniBand, Ethernet, HDMI, DisplayPort, USB, and Others), Application (Data Center, High-Performance Computing, Personal Computing, Digital Signage, Consumer Electronics, and Others), and Region 2025-2033,” the global active optical cable market size reached USD 4,079.0 Million in 2024. Active optical cables (AOCs) are transceiver products that convert electrical signals into optical signals to transmit data between sources and displays using fiber optic cables. They offer various advantages over copper cables, such as low power consumption, higher bandwidth, and enhanced performance. These cables can also simplify a setup by eliminating power delivery issues and electromagnetic interference. As a result, AOCs interconnect applications, multi-line data communications, and accelerate storage, data, and high-performance computing.
Global Active Optical Cable Market Trends:
The market is primarily driven by the increasing demand for consumer electronics across the globe. In addition, the advent of miniaturized consumer electronics that offer high-quality video resolution displays has escalated the demand for lightweight and thinner active optical cables. Besides this, the market is further propelled by the introduction of various advanced technologies, such as network function virtualization (NFV) and software-defined networking (SDN), that assist in reducing network power consumption and provide enhanced life cycles for network hardware. Moreover, there has been widespread adoption of AOCs due to their enhanced virtualized connectivity, minimized errors and cost-effectiveness. Furthermore, the expanding telecom industry and the implementation of various government initiatives to improve the network infrastructure are anticipated to propel the market growth in the coming years. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market value to reach USD 20,714.4 Million by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 19.8% during the forecast period (2025-2033).
