The Invisible Link of Submarine Cables

Submarine cables are commonly utilized for electricity and communication purposes. Submarine power cables are used for power transmission to oil rigs, transmission of power generated by offshore wind farms to power plants, and inter-country and island connections. Inter-region/country communications are carried out using submarine communication cables. Around 97% of global internet traffic is fully dependent on underwater cables, and as internet usage grows, so does the demand for submarine cables.

Segment Analysis:

The global submarine cable system market is segmented into ten notable segments based on product, voltage, offering, fiber class, cable type, armor type, depth, and application.

  • On the basis of product, the global submarine cable system market is segmented into wet plant products and dry plant products. Dry plant products segment is expected to dominate the market with a 62.81% share as it offers maximum work efficiency by avoiding the installation of cables in critical areas.
  • On the basis of voltage, the global submarine cable system market is segmented into medium voltage, high voltage, and extra high voltage. High voltage segment is expected to dominate the market with a 46.86% share as it is considered one of the most commonly used power figures compatible with today's electronic configuration.
  • On the basis of offering, the global submarine cable system market is segmented into maintenance, upgrades, and installation and commissioning. Installation and commissioning segment is expected to dominate the market with a 45.23% share owing to demand for the new route installation of the cable system.
  • On the basis of fiber class, the global submarine cable system market is segmented into unrepeatered, and repeatered. Unrepeatered segment is expected to dominate the market with a 61.47% share as it can sustain high voltage and is highly insulated.
  • On the basis of cables type, the global submarine cable system market is segmented into loose tube cables, ribbon cables, and others. Loose tube cables segment is expected to dominate the market with a 53.01% share as it protects the fiber core, cladding, and coating, particularly useful in environments with high humidity.
  • On the basis of armor type, the global submarine cable system market is segmented into light weight armor, single armor, double armor, and rock armor. Single armor segment is expected to dominate the market with a 48.79% share as it provides higher mechanical protection and durability.
  • On the basis of depth, the global submarine cable system market is segmented into 0 to 500m, 500m to 1000m, 1000m to 5000m, and others. 1000m-5000m segment is expected to dominate the market with a 46.58% share as the standard depth of connectivity is preferred because of its cost-effectiveness.

Submarine Cable System Market

Market Development

  • In 2022, after arriving in Cape Town last month, Google launched its USD 1 billion Equiano cable connecting Western Europe to South Africa in September. The underwater Internet cable, which spans 15,000 km from Portugal to South Africa and has 12 fibre pairs with a design capacity of 150 Tbps, is Africa's greatest capacity cable. The cable, which has nine branching points, was first disclosed two years ago by Submarine Networks. It's one of Google's longest submarine internet connections.
  • In 2021, LEONI announced its partnership in the ADOPD project, which is building ultrafast fiber-optical processing units based on Adaptive Optical Dendrites, in November. This project will assist the company in better understanding the many processes and interactions, resulting in the creation of improved product technologies in a variety of segments, particularly cable systems.
  • In 2020, Facebook acquired a $5.7 billion stake in Reliance Jio, a major Indian telecommunications company. This deal gave Facebook access to Jio's vast network of users, which helped to increase the demand for submarine cables in the region. Submarine cables are used to carry internet traffic between continents, and they are essential for connecting large and growing markets like India to the global internet. The rise in demand for submarine cables in the region is expected to continue in the years to come, as more and more people in India and other developing countries gain access to the internet.
