Description

The global data center cabling market was valued at USD 7.1 billion in 2024 and is projected to experience robust growth at a CAGR of 8.9% from 2025 to 2034. This surge is driven by the increasing demand for high-speed, reliable, and scalable communication infrastructure, which is accelerating the adoption of fiber optic cabling in data centers. Unlike traditional copper cabling, fiber optics provide superior bandwidth and performance, crucial for meeting the growing data traffic needs of applications like artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and virtual reality.

The market is primarily divided into two segments: copper cables and fiber optic cables. In 2024, fiber optic cables captured 59% of the market share and are projected to reach USD 10 billion by 2034. The demand for fiber optics is primarily fueled by the need for high-speed, high-capacity data transfer in data centers. These cables offer low latency, substantial bandwidth, and enhanced reliability, making them the ideal solution for data-driven applications. Moreover, the ongoing transition to 400G and 800G networks is boosting the adoption of advanced fiber optic technologies, enabling data centers to create scalable, future-proof infrastructures.

When examining end-user segments, the market is further divided into hyperscale, colocation, enterprise, and cloud service providers. In 2024, hyperscale data centers held a 35% market share. These facilities are at the forefront of driving demand for high-density, high-performance cabling solutions to support large-scale data processing and storage. To achieve scalability and operational efficiency, hyperscale data centers require sophisticated fiber optic and copper cabling systems that deliver fast data transmission with minimal latency. Additionally, modular cabling solutions are gaining momentum, allowing these data centers to grow and adapt to ever-evolving technological demands.

North America’s data center cabling market accounted for a substantial 37% of the global market share in 2024 and is expected to generate USD 6 billion by 2034. The increasing need for advanced cabling solutions in this region is largely attributed to the expansion of cloud services, the rise of artificial intelligence, and the deployment of 5G networks. Data centers are increasingly focused on building high-speed, low-latency infrastructures to support these cutting-edge technologies. Sustainability is also a key concern, with organizations prioritizing energy-efficient and eco-friendly cabling systems to reduce operational costs and comply with growing environmental regulations.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
