Overview
Key Findings
A new overview of the global structured cabling market and 17 country reports will be published end of
March 2019 and cover 2018 and forecasts to 2023.
Many countries experienced decent growth in the LAN market in 2018 due to a favourable economic climate, the introduction of CPR in Europe and increasing uptake of plenum cables in Canada. The data centre market also showed significant growth particularly in Asia. The large colocation and hyper scale data centres are experiencing decent growth so BSRIA is now measuring sales of SM fibre cables and pre-term fibre connectivity by MM and SM. Sales of Cat 6A continue to increase driven partly by the increasing usage of PoE for wireless access points, cameras and other devices. In 2017 BSRIA reported Cat 6A share at 19% of all cabling systems by volume. The uptake of Cat 6A solutions is highest in Europe and the Middle East.
