Direct-attach Cable Market Research 2014

Today's enterprise data center networks are undergoing an infrastructure transformation, requiring higher speeds, greater scalability, and higher levels of performance and reliability to better respond to new business requirements. The 10 Gbps Direct Attached cable (1 m, 3 m, 5 m) is optimized to fully leverage Brocade 10 Gbps solutions.


Active Optical Cable market research Report


The Active Optical Cable market faced many challenges in 2011 from numerous consolidating acquisitions, to the entry of Asian based, low cost suppliers pummeling prices, earthquakes and tsunamis in Japan, to flooding of manufacturing sources in Taiwan and lastly ip battles over who owns what. Stability was regained in 2012 and growth continued strong through the year. But everyone likes the best party and today LightCounting counts 26 players from the AOC market. After a peaceful time period of acquisitions, Mellanox surprised many with its acquisitions of a silicon photonics and a transceiver IC company in early 2013.


In 2012, the market grew 65%, blowing out our previous forecast. It was on top of a stellar 2011. A key difference was the quicker than anticipated up-tick of the 14G InfiniBand FDR AOC segment. We now predict the AOC market to increase 30% to $150 million in 2013.


The InfiniBand market represents the biggest share today and it has already moved on to 14G FDR QSFP+ while traditional Data Centers is sticking with 10G QSFP+ formats. Other protocols with potential AOC opportunities, like SAS, Fibre Channel and PCI Express remain potential markets as their data rates pass 10G.


Copper Cables Mate With Fiber Optic Modules


Interchangeable and hot-swappable with fiber optic modules, the company's SFP+ active direct-attach copper cable assemblies are cost-effective choices to fiber optic transceivers and MPO cables in 10-Gb Ethernet, 8-GB Fibre Channel, and InfiniBand apps. Their active design enables a power consumption of 500 mW per cable end. Active cables also incorporate Rx LOS and Tx disable functionality. All SFP+ cable assemblies meet the MSA spec for signal integrity. Both passive and active cables are available in wire gages from 24 AWG through 30 AWG and incorporate a 360 cable braid-crimp termination that suppresses EMI leakage and offers strain relief.


Increasingly more protocols are moving to higher line rates where copper links start to have issues with reach and EMI and where AOCs offer strong advantages of high data rate, long reach and low price. That is fueling the AOC business, and as a result, facilitating segment growth. Ultimately, there are significant growth and spreading within all facets of the high-speed interconnect market.
