Research and Markets: China Optical Communication Industry Report, 2010-2011

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/cb3f74/china_optical_comm) has announced the addition of the "China Optical Communication Industry Report, 2010-2011" report to their offering.

The optical communication network construction in China has transferred to the extensive upgrading of access network since 2010, and the centralized procurement quantity of FTTx by three telecom operators has approximated 20 million lines. In 2011, the FTTx centralized procurement quantity of China Telecom is expected to total 19 million lines, followed by China Unicom. According to the planning of the State Administration of Radio Film and Television (SARFT), the CATV operators will initiate network reform in 2011 and will purchase great numbers of PON devices.

Chinese optical communication equipment industry has maintained the growth rate of over 30% in recent years. Regarding the construction of optical fiber access network, access system device occupies more than 50% of the gross investment. At present, China Telecom and China Unicom give priority to EPON, while China Mobile, the newcomer in broadband market, prefers GPON. Chinese local suppliers of PON devices mainly cover Huawei, ZTE, and FiberHome.

The cost of optoelectronic devices, the core components of optical network, accounts for 25%-30% of that of optical communication equipment. Hereinto, optical splitters are in short supply in Chinese market. The major optoelectronic device manufacturers in China consist of Accelink Technologies Co., Ltd. (Accelink), Wuhan Huagong Genuine Optics Tech Co., Ltd. (HG Genuine), and Wuhan Telecommunication Devices Co., Ltd. (WTD). Nevertheless, they lack core technologies and ingenious brands, and the core optical fiber components rely on import.

In 2010, the capacity utilization of optical fiber & cable in China was around 90%, and the price of centralized purchasing presented a downward trend, a fall of 12% YoY. Yet influenced by Great East Japan Earthquake, the upstream optical fiber pre-forms has encountered tense supply, and the falling price of optical fiber & cable has slowed down, so the price of optical fiber & cable in 2011 will be equivalent to that in 2010. Optical fiber pre-form contributes 70% to the profit of the entire optical fiber & cable industry chain. Hengtong Optic-electric, Jiangsu Zhongtian Technology Co., Ltd. (ZTT), FiberHome, Futong Group, and Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Company Ltd. (YOFC) have already practiced pre-form projects. The optical fiber pre-form output of Chinese local manufacturers approached 1,000 tons in 2010.
