Five Year Cumulative Revenue to be $81 Billion

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Jan. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a recent forecast report by Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, networks, and data center industries, Optical Transport equipment demand is forecast to increase at a 3 percent compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) for the next five years, reaching $17 billion by 2027. The cumulative revenue during that five year period is expected to be $81 billion.

"We expect annual growth rates to fluctuate in the near term before stabilizing to a more typical 3 percent growth rate," said Jimmy Yu, Vice President at Dell'Oro Group. "There is still a large amount of market uncertainty this year due to the economic backdrop—economists are predicting a high chance of a recession in North America and Europe. However, at the same time, most optical systems equipment manufacturers are reporting record levels of order backlog entering the year, and we expect that most of this backlog could convert to revenue when component supply improves this year," added Yu.
