Active Optical Cable Markets 2015: Five Factors Shaping Demand for AOCs
DUBLIN, Sept. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/j3vft8/active_optical) has announced the addition of the "Active Optical Cable Markets 2015: Volume One: Data Center and High-Performance Computing Markets" report to their offering.
This past year has been a good one for Active Optical Cables (AOCs) as data centers and HPC facilities upgrade to 100G and high-speed IB connectivity. We are also seeing the number of all-optical data centers creep up, with AOCs providing a useful path to the all-optical environment. Meanwhile Ethernet AOCs continue to be the "next big thing" and core router manufacturers have gradually begun to adopt AOCs as convenient tools of the trade.
This annual report on active optical cable (AOC) market opportunities is the most widely regarded and authoritative market forecast and technology assessment covering AOCs in data centers and the high-performance computing (HPC) space:
- The AOC report has been the reliable source for business development and marketing executives in cabling, component and equipment firms throughout the world for almost eight years
- It is strongly focus focused on business strategy, analyzing the sectors of corporate networking in which AOCs are likely to find a market and identifying the main opportunities markets
- The report examines the most important marketing issues faced in the AOC market, such as the importance of branding
- This 2015 edition of our AOC report provides our most granular forecast ever, with breakouts by protocols, MSAs, types of connector, reach, cable length, type of cable and wavelength. All of our forecasts are presented in both volume and value terms
- The report also contains strategic assessments of all major manufacturers. It provides an assessment of the product/market strategies of more than 30 key AOC manufacturers including Chinese suppliers and other new entrants
This report is Volume One of a two-report set. Volume Two - which examines revenue generation by AOCs in emerging addressable markets such as consumer electronics, personal computing and digital signage - will also be published soon.
