Dark Fiber Market Insights

Dark fiber refers to unused fiber-optic infrastructure that is available for use in fiber-optic communication. During the telecom boom of the late 1990s and early 2000s, excess fiber was installed in the US, resulting in a market for unique private services that could not be accommodated on lit fiber cables. These unused fiber optic cables later became known as dark fiber following the dot-com crash of the early 2000s that briefly reduced demand for high-speed data transmission. Dark fiber may be leased or purchased from a network service provider and can be used to create a privately operated optical fiber network that is run directly by its operator. Managed dark fiber is a form of wavelength-division multiplexed access to otherwise dark fiber where a pilot signal is beamed into the fiber by the fiber provider for management purposes using a transponder tuned to an assigned wavelength. For many years, incumbent local exchange carriers would not sell dark fiber to end-users, but this has since changed with the rising demand for high-speed data transmission.

According to MRFR analysis, the global Dark Fiber market is expected to register a CAGR of 9.49% from 2023 to 2030 and hold a value of over USD 11.9 Billion by 2030.

Dark fiber refers to fiber-optic cable infrastructure that has been installed. The term is often used to refer to the ownership or leasing of unused fiber-optic cable infrastructure by companies or individuals to build their networks. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the use of dark fiber. With many people working from home and accessing online resources remotely, the demand for bandwidth and internet connectivity has increased dramatically. This has led to a greater need for more infrastructure, including dark fiber. As more people work from home, the need for reliable and fast internet connections has become more pressing and this has led to more companies and individuals leasing dark fiber to create their networks. Additionally, with more people using the internet for entertainment, such as streaming and gaming, the demand for bandwidth has increased, which in turn has led to an increased interest in dark fiber infrastructure.
