According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Planar Lightwave Circuit (PLC) Splitters Market Report by Type (1×N PLC Splitters, 2×N PLC Splitters), Design Type (Bare Fiber, Blockless, ABS, Fanout, Rack-Mounted, and Others), Application (Telecommunication, FTTX Systems, PON Networks, CATV Networks, LAN, WAN and Metro Networks, and Others), and Region 2024-2032,” the global planar lightwave circuit (PLC) splitters market size reached US$ 1.2 Million in 2023. Planar lightwave circuit (PLC) splitters are essential optical devices used in fiber optic networks to divide or split incoming optical signals into multiple output channels. They are passive devices that work based on the principles of lightwave interference and waveguides. They work based on the principle of waveguide-based light splitting that consists of an optical chip with a waveguide structure that guides and distributes the incoming optical signal to the multiple output ports.
Global Planar Lightwave Circuit (PLC) Splitters Market Trends:
PLC splitters are employed in the telecommunication industry to enable efficient and reliable distribution of optical signals from central aggregation points to remote wireless base stations. This, coupled with the increasing number of mobile phone subscribers and the rising use of high-speed internet connection, represents one of the key factors augmenting the market growth around the world. Moreover, the growing integration of video, voice, and data networks with fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) arrangements is influencing the market positively. In addition, PLC splitters are employed in the healthcare sector for telemedicine applications, medical imaging, and electronic health record (EHR) systems that transmit medical data and images over optical networks. This, along with the increasing requirement for remote patient monitoring (RPM) on account of the surging prevalence of chronic diseases and viral infections among the masses, is bolstering the market growth. Apart from this, the rising adoption of PLC splitters in transportation systems, including railway networks, to support communication between control centers is propelling the growth of the market. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach US$ 2.2 Million by 2032, expanding at a CAGR of 6.5% during 2024-2032.
