Mission
The growth in networks based on optical fibre cable (OFC) is
likely to pick up speed over the next few years, making India one
of the fastest
growing markets in this area.
There are many factors that are driving this growth. They
include government initiatives aimed at bridging the digital divide
as well as telecomoperator plans to meet the growing demand.
The most noteworthy project is the National Optical Fibre
Network (NOFN), which aims to increase internet usage and improve
connectivity in
suburban and rural areas. This project is being promoted by the
Universal Service Obligation (USO) Fund, which is reportedly ready
to commit
Rs 200 billion for the purpose.
The advent of 3G and BWA services would also act as a key growth
driver, as wireless telecom operators need to significantly
increase the backhaul
capacity and bandwidth. Wireline operators will also continue to
increase the penetration of OFC networks in order to provide
broadband services.
Wireline operators will also continue to increase the
penetration of OFC networks in order to provide broadband services.
There is tremendous poten-
tial in the fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) segment, as users are
increasingly looking for high-speed broadband, high-definition
videos, unlimited any-
where telephony and real-time surveillance.
Another source of demand will be the proposed exclusive OFC
network for the defence forces. According to initial estimates,
this network would
span 60,000 km and could cost as much as $1.3 billion.
OFC growth will also be driven by the continuing expansion of
networks by Indian Railways, Powergrid and GAIL (Gas Authority of
India Limited).
These organisations not only need the networks for their
operations but also see them as new sources of revenues and
profits.
There are also a number of state-level e-governance projects
that are being funded by the central government (to the tune of Rs
500 billion) and
will have OFC networks as one of their key components. In
addition, the mandatory upgradation and digitisation of cable
television networks will
require the deployment of OFC networks.
Helping the trend along are technology developments in both
optic fibre communications and fibre laying. Technology advances
have
significantly reduced the degradation of signals, resulting in
the requirement for fewer repeaters. The new plastic optic fibre
technology
promises to revolutionise last mile communication networks.
Advances in fibre laying technologies are enabling the deployment
of OFC
networks in densely populated urban areas.
