Fiber Optic Circulators are non-reciprocal devices, which means that changes
in the properties of light passing through the device are not reversed when the
light passes through in the opposite direction. The optical device is commonly
used in a wide variety of systems, here are just a few examples: dispersion
compensation, optical sensors, optical amplifiers, WDM systems, optical
add/drops multiplexing (OADMs) and test/measurement instruments such as optical
time-domain reflectometers (OTDRs), remote fiber (optic) test systems (RFTS)
and other test equipment.
Fiber optic
circulator functionality is an excellent candidate for integrating with a transmitter
and receiver into a single package. Circulators provide an ideal solution for coupling devices into a
fiber optic network without the inherent 3dB loss of an optical coupler.
Circulators directional functionality enable simultaneously adding and dropping
signals from a fiber as well as coupling other optical signal processing
devices.
The deployment of optical
fiber in the metro/access, the continuing demand for upgrading networks to
accommodate rapidly increasing bandwidth requirements, plus the need for
additional monitoring and testing of the optical fiber networks will drive the
steady consumption of fiber optic circulators.
Fiber optic circulators are
used with erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFA), fiber optic sensor
applications, dense WDM (DWDM), optical add/drop multiplexing (OADM), optical
time domain reflectometers (OTDR fiber optic test equipment), SANs (Storage
Area Networks), bi-directional transmission systems, dispersion compensators,
and other devices.

Research Methodology Information Base
This
study is based on analysis of information obtained continually over the past
two decades, but updated through the end of February 2016. During this period, ElectroniCast analysts
performed interviews with authoritative and representative individuals in the
fiber optics, telecommunications, datacom, cable TV and other communication
industries, from the standpoint of both suppliers and users of fiber optic
transmission links. The interviews were
conducted principally with:
• Engineers,
marketing personnel and management at manufacturers of fiber optic collimators,
specialty fiber, connectors, isolators, couplers, DWDM filter modules, dispersion compensators, photonic switches,
attenuators, modulators, transmitters/receivers, OADMs and other related optical communication components.
• Engineers,
marketing, purchasing personnel and market planners at major users of passive and active optical components, such
as telecommunication transmission, switching, distribution and apparatus
equipment, regional and inter-exchange (IXC) telephone companies, alternative
local carriers, data communications equipment companies, cable TV system
suppliers, military/aerospace OEMs, utilities and a number of other end users
of fiber optic communication
components and technology.
The
interviews covered issues of technology, pricing, contract size, reliability,
and documentation, installation/maintenance crafts, standards, supplier
competition and other topics. A full review of published information was also
performed to supplement information obtained through interviews. The following sources were reviewed:
• Professional
technical journals and papers; Trade press articles
• Technical
conference proceedings
• Additional
information based on previous ElectroniCast market studies, including the Fiber
Optic Forecast Service Data Base, the Fiber Optic Cable Forecast, the Optical
Amplifier and Component Global Forecast, the Intraenclosure Optical
Interconnect Forecast, the Fiber Optic Installation Apparatus Forecast, the
Fiber Optic Coupler Forecast, the Fiber Optic Circulator, Attenuator, Isolator,
Filter, Collimators, DWDM, Switch, Optical Add/Drop Multiplexers,
Transmitters/Receivers, SONET/SDH, and other related component Market Forecasts
• Personal
knowledge of the research team
In
analyzing and forecasting the complexities of the Global market for fiber optic
communication components,
it is essential that the market research team have a good and a deep
understanding of the technology and of the industry. ElectroniCast members who participated in this report were qualified.
Bottom-up
Methodology
ElectroniCast
forecasts are developed initially at the lowest detail level and then summed to
successively higher levels. The background market research focuses on the
amount of each type of product used in each application in the base year
(2015), and the prices paid at the
first transaction from the manufacturer. This
forms the base year data. ElectroniCast analysts then forecast the growth rates
in component quantity use in each application, along with price trends, based
on competitive, economic and technology forecast trends, and apply these to
derive long term forecasts at the lowest application levels. The usage growth
rate forecasts depend heavily on analysis of overall end user trends toward
digital broadband communication equipment usage and economic payback.
Cross-Correlation Increases
Accuracy The quantities of fiber optic
transmitters/receivers, modulators, isolators, circulators, couplers, DWDM
filters, attenuators, optical amplifiers and other optical communication
components used in a particular application are interrelated. Since ElectroniCast conducts annual analysis
and forecast updates in each component field, accurate current quantity
estimates are part of the corporate database.
These quantities are cross-correlated as a "sanity check".
ElectroniCast, each year since
1985, has conducted extensive research and updated their forecasts of each
fiber optic component category. As
technology and applications have advanced, the number of component subsets
covered by the forecasts has expanded impressively.
