The global structured cabling market was
valued at US$ 7,172.5 Mn in 2017 and is anticipated to register a
stable CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period, according to a new
report published by Transparency Market Research (TMR) titled ‘Structured Cabling Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2018–2026.’
Increasing demand for high bandwidth and expansion and modernization of
communication infrastructure fueled by economic growth have driven the
global structured cabling market. The market in North America is
expanding at the maximum CAGR of 7.1%, owing to technological
innovations and presence of a large number of players in the region.
Hardware segment to drive the structured cabling market
Expanding cable network fueled by rise in
modernization of infrastructure in developing economies is resulting in
high demand for structured cabling worldwide. Copper cable is the most
common cable used in structured networking, due to its lower costs
compared to optical fiber. Copper cables are employed in power
generation, power transmission, power distribution, telecommunications,
electronics circuitry, and numerous electric equipment. Copper has the
maximum electric conductivity rating among all non-precious metals. This
boosts the demand for copper cables across the globe. The hardware
sector has witnessed strong growth, due to continuous installation of a
large number of machines and assembly units across the world, followed
by extensive channels of wiring systems. This is expected to continue to
augment the demand for structured cabling during the forecast period.
Rise in modernizing of communication infrastructure in IT & telecommunication industry to drive the market
Based on end-user, the global structured
cabling market has been segmented into commercial & residential, IT
& telecommunication, government, industrial, and others (including
mining and education). IT & telecommunication is anticipated to be
the rapidly expanding end-user segment during the forecast period,
followed by the industrial segment. The IT & telecommunication
segment is expected to dominate the global market for structured
cabling, expanding at the maximum CAGR of 7.3% throughout the forecast
period. This is attributable to rising need to facilitate rapid
communication and optimized energy consumption. Recently, various
enterprises have taken initiatives to expand and modernize their
communication infrastructure. The industrial end-user segment is
anticipated to expand at a significant CAGR during the forecast period,
due to increasing penetration of portable computing devices and rising
dependency of multiple industrial sectors on cloud applications.
Furthermore, increasing focus on IoT
(Internet of Things) applications is anticipated to fuel the demand for
high-bandwidth telecommunication infrastructure in the IT &
telecommunication industry in the next few years. This, in turn, is
anticipated to fuel the structured cabling market during the forecast
period.
Economic growth in the U.S., China, India, and South Africa to create lucrative opportunities
Geographically, the global structured
cabling market has been divided into five major regions. These include
North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and Middle East
& Africa. In 2017, North America was the leading region of the
global market, followed by Europe. Demand for structured cabling is the
maximum in North America, due to growth of the IT & telecom industry
in the region. The large number of wire and cable shipments to electric
utilities in the region is boosting the structured cabling market in
North America. Furthermore, the U.S. Government has commissioned several
studies to explore methods for upgrading the existing infrastructure.
The U.S. held a leading share of the North America market in 2017. The
market in the country is estimated to expand at the maximum CAGR during
the forecast period. The structured cabling market in Europe is
anticipated to expand at a significant CAGR during the forecast period,
due to advancements in the field of logistics & transportation in
the region.
The structured cabling market in Asia
Pacific is expected to expand at the maximum CAGR of 7.9% during the
forecast period. Rapid growth of the IT industry in Asia Pacific has had
a significant positive impact on the demand for mechanical cable
accessories in the region. In addition, rapid pace of urbanization and
growth of public, private, and residential sectors in Asia Pacific are
leading to increasing construction of residential and commercial
buildings and new power transmission lines in the region. This, in turn,
is boosting the demand for structured cabling in the region. Rapid
industrialization in developing countries of the region drives the
demand for structured cabling for use in industrial machinery in Asia
Pacific.
