Dublin, Nov. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Co-packaged Optics - Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts (2024-2029)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Co-packaged Optics Market size is estimated at USD 70.20 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 483.77 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 47.12% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
The co-packaged optics (CPO) market is growing rapidly due to the accelerating demand for high-speed data transmission and the exponential growth of data centers and cloud services. Co-packaged optics integrate optical and electronic components into a single package, reducing the distance that electrical signals need to travel and minimizing latency and power consumption. This addresses the bandwidth limitations of traditional copper interconnects and meets the growing requirements of next-generation data center architectures.
Moreover, the ongoing shift toward 400 G, 800 G, and beyond in data center networking is a key factor propelling the co-packaged optics market. These higher-speed standards require innovations that CPOs can deliver, such as improved signal integrity and energy efficiency. Data centers require faster, more efficient data processing and transmission capabilities, and CPO technology can support the scaling needs of these data centers.
The co-packaged optics market is benefiting from collaborations between industry leaders in photonics and semiconductor manufacturing. Companies such as Intel, Cisco, and Broadcom are investing heavily in CPO research and development. These collaborations are essential for advancing the technology, reducing costs, and ensuring interoperability across different platforms.
The adoption of co-packaged optics is supported by the development of industry standards and regulatory frameworks that ensure the compatibility and reliability of these solutions. Standards associations, including the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF), are working to establish guidelines that facilitate the broader deployment of CPO technology.
Co-packaged Optics Market Trends
Growth in High-performance Computing
- High-performance computing (HPC) is rapidly growing due to increasing demands for data centers, complex simulations, large-scale data processing, and advanced scientific research. This growth significantly drives the trend and development in co-packaged computing (CPC), where processors, memory, or other critical components are integrated into a single package. HPC applications often require massive data processing capabilities, and traditional interconnects between separate chips can become bottlenecks. CPC addresses this by integrating components closely, reducing latency, and increasing data throughput, which is essential for HPC workloads.
- By packaging computing elements together, CPC enhances performance and efficiency. This integration reduces the distance data needs to travel, cutting energy consumption and improving overall performance, which is crucial for HPC systems that operate at high power and require optimal energy utilization. High-performance computations generate significant heat, and CPC helps manage this by allowing for more efficient thermal solutions. Since components are packaged in proximity, better heat dissipation strategies can be tailored specifically for HPC environments.
- Scalability is another critical factor for HPC systems, which demand the ability to handle increasing computational loads. CPC offers a modular approach where additional processing power can be added without the complexities associated with traditional multi-chip setups. This modularity supports the scalable nature of HPC infrastructures. Moreover, advances in semiconductor fabrication, driven by the needs of HPC, are making CPC more viable and cost-effective. Techniques like 3D stacking and advanced interconnects are being developed to meet the stringent performance and integration requirements of HPC, further propelling the adoption of CPC.
- Reducing communication overhead between processors and memory is crucial for maintaining high performance in HPC. CPC significantly reduces this overhead by integrating these components within a single package, enabling faster and more efficient data exchanges. While initially expensive, the economies of scale driven by HPC demand are reducing the costs associated with CPC technologies. As HPC grows, the larger volumes and continuous advancements help reduce costs, making CPC more accessible and widespread.
Asia-Pacific is Expected to Hold Significant Market Share
- The co-packaged optics market in Asia-Pacific is experiencing significant growth, driven by rapid advancements in data centers, telecommunications, and high-performance computing sectors.
- Countries like China, Japan, and South Korea are at the forefront, investing heavily in next-generation network infrastructure to support the exponential increase in data traffic and the demand for faster, more efficient data transmission solutions. For instance, in November 2023, China's three main telecom operators reported a combined net increase of around 26 million 5G package subscribers. This brought their total 5G package subscriber base to nearly 1.348 billion. By the end of November, 5G package subscribers made up 78.6% and 77.3% of China Mobile's and China Telecom's total mobile subscriber bases, respectively.
- The region's strong manufacturing base, coupled with supportive government policies and substantial R&D investments, is fostering innovation in co-packaged optics technology. Additionally, the presence of major tech companies and semiconductor manufacturers in Asia-Pacific is accelerating the adoption and development of these advanced optical solutions.
- This market's growth is further propelled by the increasing implementation of 5G networks, the expansion of cloud services, and the continuous evolution of AI and IoT applications, positioning Asia-Pacific as a critical player in the global co-packaged optics landscape. According to Ericsson, 5G is projected to reach approximately 620 million subscriptions in Southeast Asia and Oceania by the end of 2028.
