The Passive Optical LAN (POL) market is estimated to be valued at US$ 52.9 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 25% over the forecast period 2023-2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Overview:
A passive optical LAN (POL) is a data network consisting of fiber optic cables and passive components like splitters, terminators etc. It allows sharing of a single optical fiber to serve multiple end points using power dividers and reflectors instead of active electronic switches. This reduces complexity and maintenance cost of network infrastructure. Passive optical LANs are commonly used in buildings, business parks, campuses to provide intranet services like internet access, voice and data within premises.
Market Dynamics:
Growing demand for higher bandwidth from datacenter operations, cloud applications is driving increasing adoption of fiber optic connections within buildings. Currently, traditional copper cabling is reaching saturation limits for bandwidth requirements. This is fueling migration towards fiber optic passive optical networks within premises. Additionally, POL solutions provide cost benefits in terms of cabling installation compared to active ethernet networks. Easy scalability and lower power consumption of passive optical LAN further supports its adoption.
