CRU's World Optical Fiber & Cable conference has experienced incredible growth since its launch in 2015. This year the conference, which is again hosted by YOFC, one of the leading manufacturers in the optical communications industry, is returning to the Optical Valley in Wuhan China on the 1-3 November. CRU is expecting over 700 attendees at what has now become established as the world's premier event for producers of optical fiber and cable. The optical fiber and cable sector is at an interesting crossroads, as the high demand caused by the large scale FTTH deployment around the world is being replaced by new fiber requirements in data-centre network expansion and the arrival of 5G networks.
CRU World Fiber Optic and Cable Conference since 2015 Since its establishment, the scale has expanded year by year.
This year’s conference will once again be held in the Optics Valley of Wuhan, China, and will be held grandly from November 1 to 3. YOFC, a leading company in the optical fiber and communications industry, will once again host this conference.
As the world's premier fiber optic and cable industry event, CRU expects this conference to welcome more than 700 attendees.
The optical fiber and cable market is currently at a subtle turning point - the demand brought about by the large-scale deployment of global optical fiber to the home is gradually being replaced by the network expansion of data networks and the demand for optical fiber brought by 5G networks.
"Looking at about 40 years of optical networking history, the current phase might be characterized as the FTTH era," says Richard Mack, CRU's leading optical fiber and cable expert. "That is, many telecom operators, especially those in the advanced markets, are building up or already have achieved widespread coverage with FTTH systems. And many of these carriers are firming up plans for the next phase --– the 5G and IoT era," he explains.
Richard Mack, chief expert on CRU fiber optic cable market, mentioned that “Throughout the 40 years of development of fiber optic networks, the market is currently in the fiber-to-the-home era. In other words, many telecom operators Operators, especially those in mature markets, are building or have already achieved large-scale fiber-to-the-home coverage.
And many of these operators are making plans for the next phase - the arrival of the 5G and Internet of Things era.
”
"Some operators are saying they will have full-scale deployments underway in two to three years. This is a huge shift in telecom network capabilities and services. On the manufacturing side, the world's optical fiber, cable and equipment makers are gearing up for this new era – investing in capacity, developing new products; and working with carriers on new architectures,” continues Richard.
At the same time, “some carriers have Said they will achieve full network coverage within the next two to three years.
This will bring about major changes in the carrying capacity and services of telecommunications networks.
From a production perspective, global optical fiber, optical cable and equipment manufacturers are fully preparing for the arrival of the new era - investing in new production capacity, developing new products; cooperating with operators to build new facilities, etc.
”
With the world on the brink of a major new era in information and communications technology, CRU and YOFC are structuring the program for the 3rd World Optical Fiber & Cable Conference to focus on the major developments in optical network concepts, product requirements and manufacturing capacity. Over three days, participants will have the opportunity to explore how the quickly evolving global telecoms industry will impact optical fiber and cable trade flows. The The event also boasts a large exhibition with all of the latest technologies and services that are disrupting the entire supply chain.
With the advent of a new era of world information and communication technology, CRU and YOFC will also focus on the major changes in optical fiber network concepts, product demands and production capabilities as the main agenda of the 3rd World Optical Fiber and Cable Conference and other topics.
The three-day conference will give participants the opportunity to understand the impact of the rapidly developing global telecommunications industry on optical fiber and cable trade flows.
The conference will also set up an exhibition. District, showing you the latest technologies and services that are bringing significant changes to the entire supply chain
Wuhan's Optical Valley is the perfect place to. gain a first-hand understanding of optical fiber and cable trends. China is taking a lead role in many of these developments. According to CRU's analysis, in 2016 China accounted for 57% of the world's fiber installations, 61% of the world's optical cable production, and 63% of the world's fiber production. As of year-end 2016, China also had 57% of the world's FTTx subscribers and 941 million broadband mobile subscribers. “This role in the world market reflects substantial investment, driven by strong commitments to broadband service and to high-tech manufacturing," said Richard.
China is the pioneer in industry development, and Wuhan Optics Valley is also well-versed in understanding the latest development trends in the optical fiber and cable industry. The second choice.
CRU analysis shows that in 2016, China’s fiber optic installation accounted for the world’s largest share.It accounts for 57% of the total installed capacity, 61% of the world's optical cable production, and 63% of the world's optical fiber production.
As of the end of 2016, the number of fiber-to-home users in China accounted for 57% of the world's total. In addition, China has 941 million mobile broadband users.
Richard said, “China’s position in the global market reflects its firm determination to devote itself to broadband services and high-tech production, which has also attracted a large amount of investment.
