GPON is a fiber optic network that connects numerous points to a single point. It is a fiber-to-the-premises network that provides many connections via splitters without electricity and a different optical fiber. Optical splitters are energy-efficient and do not require electricity for signal transmission. Due to rapid technological advancements in the FTTH/FTTB industry, the market for GPON chipsets is expanding rapidly. The global market for GPON chipsets is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period 2024 to 2032.

Low cost of ownership and good returns on investment are major drivers driving the worldwide gigabit passive optical network chipset market. In addition, GPON chipsets' higher bandwidth, unrivaled security, and increased dependability are anticipated to drive the GPON chipset market, particularly in India, over the projection period. In addition, increased digitalization and the widespread adoption of smart and linked digital devices by organizations, governments, and consumers are likely to drive the market in the next years. However, the limited range capabilities of GPON chipsets are hindering the global adoption of GPON chipsets.

2.5G-GPON Led the Market by Technology

The market for GPON chipsets has been divided according to technology, equipment, end-use sector, and geography. The market has been segmented by technology into 2.5G-GPON, 10G-GPON, XGS-PON, and NG-PON2. In 2023, the sector with the most revenue share was 2.5G-GPON. However, the NG-PON2 segment is anticipated to grow at a high rate over the projection period because of the several advantages offered by this technology, such as multi-channel compatibility, flexibility, and superior performance compared to its competitors.

OLT Segment Dominated the Market by Equipment

The global GPON chipset market is segmented by equipment into optical line termination (OLT), optical network unit (ONU), and optical distribution network (ODN). In 2023, the OLT sector held about 58% of the market share.

Mobile Backhaul Applications to be the Fastest Growing Market During the Forecast Period

The market is segmented by application into FTTH, Other FTTx, and Mobile Backhaul. Mobile backhaul is anticipated to experience the highest CAGR over the forecast period of 2024 to 2032. The considerations can be attributed to its capability to let telecom operators expand their bandwidth capacity while maintaining service quality and reducing operating expenses. The mobile backhaul application segment has gained popularity because of its efficient architecture, minimal hardware requirements, scalability, redundancy, and compatibility with current fixed-line access.

IT & Telecom Remains as the Dominant End User

The GPON chipset market has been categorized by end-use industry into hospitals, residential, IT & telecom, government institutions, and others. In 2023, the IT & telecom sector held the largest market share. The residential segment is anticipated to grow at a substantial CAGR throughout the projection period. High demand for next-generation GPON chipsets for high-speed broadband services is mostly to blame.

APAC Remains as the Global Leader

Geographically, the worldwide GPON chipset market is divided into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa, and South America. The largest share of the global market is held by Asia-Pacific, followed by North America and Europe. China has experienced a rapid transition from wireless to wired optical communication over the past decade. This transitional period is propelling the market in the region and making the country particularly conducive to GPON chipset uptake. In addition, the Asia-Pacific market is anticipated to increase fast between 2023 and 2031 due to ongoing technological advancements in the region. The Middle East and Africa market is anticipated to expand at a moderate rate during the forecast period. The GPON chipset market in South America is anticipated to develop slowly during the forecast period.
