Fiber to the x (FTTx) Tester Market

Market Overview

FTTx Tester: Overview

The growing demand for high speed Internet and increasing broadband subscription is surging the adoption of FTTx and significantly creating a huge demand for FTTx tester market, globally. Long distance coverage, increased bandwidth, and high reliability are having a positive impact on the growth of global FTTx tester market. Fiber to the x (FTTx) is the broadband network architecture used for communication through an optical fiber. Optical fiber cables are capable of carrying much more data when compared to traditionally-used copper wires. Fiber to the premises (FTTP) is the optical distribution network from the central office all the way to premises. FTTP is categorized into fiber to home (FTTH) and fiber to building (FTTB). Fiber to the cabinet (FTTC) is a fiber-based telecommunication that serves multiple customers. With the growing demand for high speed broadband and continuous infrastructural developments, FTTx tester market is expected to have a huge demand during the forecast period.

Gigabit products and 4k TV are fuelling the FTTx tester market. FTTx and FTTx tester are supplier-driven market. Companies are launching multiple innovative products using FTTx, which, in turn, creates the demand for FTTx tester. Multiple gigabit products were launched in the last few years using fiber. In Singapore, FTTx has been available since 2012. Still not much commercial push or demand from the customers was witnessed. In 2014, two companies, MyRepublic and MI, launched gigabit broadband. This new launch, in turn, caused two other players, StarHub and SinTel, to respond with equivalent gigabit broadband products. Now, the market in Singapore is moving towards multi-gigabit products. These continuous development is expected to fuel the global FTTx tester market during the forecast period.

Vendors offer various FTTx tester such as optical time domain reflect meters, fiber identifiers, loss testing kits, fault locator, inspection & cleaning, and others. Several developments in fiber technology, with reference to FTTx, along with the proliferating growth rate of the market, along with the recent developments and innovations in FTTx tester are expected to drive the global FTTx tester market significantly during the forecast period.
