📈 Why Optical Fiber Prices Are Increasing

1. AI Data Center Boom

👉Hyperscalers like Meta, Microsoft, and Google are building massive AI data centers.

👉AI workloads require high-bandwidth, low-latency fiber connections, pushing demand far beyond normal telecom growth.

👉Fiber demand is now outpacing production capacity globally.

2. Military Applications

👉In the Russia–Ukraine war, FPV drones are being connected via fiber cables to avoid radio jamming.

👉These drones use bendable G.657.A2 fiber, adding unexpected military demand.

👉Military procurement competes directly with civilian telecom and AI infrastructure buyers.

3. China’s Supply Bottleneck

👉China produces the majority of the world’s optical fiber.

👉Since late 2025, Chinese vendors have been at full capacity, with longer lead times and unstable quotations.

👉Domestic projects (FTTH, 5G backhaul) consume large volumes, leaving less for export.

4. Geopolitical & Logistics Issues

👉Conflicts in regions like the Middle East disrupt shipping routes, raising logistics costs.

👉Raw material shortages (silica preforms, energy-intensive production) further inflate manufacturing costs.
