Fiber optic transmitter/receiver market to hit $20.5bn by 2006

摘要

ElectroniCast (San Mateo, CA, USA) has published a new report entitled Fiber Optic Optoelectronic Transmitter/ Receiver Global Market Forecast. It says the global consumption of fibre optic optoelectronic transmitter/ receiver pairs (T/R pair) used for communication applications in 2001 was worth US$4.0bn. The consumption value will increase at an annual growth rate of 39% per year over the next five years, to $20.5bn in 2006, with strongly rising quantity growth partially offset by a decline in average prices.
