Pre-Terminated Systems Global Market Report 2024

The pre-terminated systems market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.69 billion in 2023 to $2.98 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to the presence of traditional cabling infrastructure, growth in telecommunications networks, the expansion of data centers, increased demand for high-speed connectivity, and a rise in internet usage.

The pre-terminated systems market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.29 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the growing demand for high-performance data transmission, the expansion of cloud computing services, the rise in smart building initiatives, an increasing need for flexible and scalable network solutions, and the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the development of pre-terminated fiber optic solutions, the adoption of advanced cable management systems, customization of pre-terminated systems for specific applications, the integration of intelligent connectivity solutions, and the growth of modular and plug-and-play systems.

The pre-terminated systems market is poised for growth, driven by the expanding footprint of data centers. Data centers, integral for shared access to applications and data, are witnessing increased demand. Pre-terminated cable systems offer a plug-and-play solution, especially suited for connecting switches and servers within the data center infrastructure. Both pre-terminated fiber and copper systems find optimal application in the Main Distribution Area (MDA) and Horizontal Distribution Area (HDA) of data center structured cabling designs. The Korea Data Center Council (KDCC) reported that colocation data centers' overall capacity reached 430 MW at the end of 2020, constituting 11% of the total APAC IT load. Additionally, the International Energy Agency (IEA) noted a significant surge in data center workloads from 180 million in 2015 to 650 million in 2021, marking a 260% increase. Hence, the expansion of data centers is a key driver for the pre-terminated systems market.

The rapid implementation of 5G networks is also set to fuel the growth of the pre-terminated systems market. The advent of 5G technology demands higher bandwidth to support increased data rates and connectivity needs. Pre-terminated systems, particularly those designed for fiber-optic connections, provide the essential infrastructure to meet the high bandwidth requirements of 5G networks. According to Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, approximately 240 5G networks were in deployment globally in May 2023, with expectations of an 85% increase by 2028. Moreover, 5G wireless connections witnessed a 76% rise, reaching 1.05 billion in 2022, projected to reach 1.9 billion by the end of 2023 and 5.9 billion by 2027. Thus, the implementation of 5G networks is anticipated to drive the pre-terminated systems market.

Innovative products represent a significant trend in the pre-terminated systems market, with major companies focusing on developing inventive solutions. For example, Amerifiber, a US-based fiber optics manufacturer and distributor, introduced Ameri-Armor in February 2021. This innovative line of micro-type armored pre-terminated fiber optic cables offers advantages such as low-profile installations, higher fiber densities, and improved flexibility, simplifying routing and installation processes.

Technological advancements, such as pre-terminated unbalanced technology solutions, are a key focus for major companies in the pre-terminated systems market to maintain their competitive edge. OFS, a leading technology company, unveiled MDU!Grow in September 2022 - a pre-terminated, unbalanced technology solution designed to meet the evolving installation requirements for new buildings in the UK market. This platform is positioned to facilitate rapid and efficient network expansion, addressing the demands of modern building installations.

In May 2023, NAI Group, a US-based company specializing in advanced interconnect solutions, acquired KSM Electronics. This acquisition enhances NAI's aerospace and defense capabilities, fortifying its position as an interconnect solutions provider for industrial technology and medical end markets. KSM Electronics, a US-based electronics manufacturer, specializes in custom cable and wire harness assemblies, including pre-terminated systems.
