Global Fiber Supply Alert: Navigating the "Fiber Famine" of 2026 🌐⚠
The fiber optic industry is facing a structural supply crisis. Prices for G.652D fiber have surged over 100% in just a few months, with market rates now exceeding USD 4.1-5.5/core-km.
Why is this happening?
1. The AI Power Surge: AI Data Centers require 5-10x more fiber than traditional centers. Global demand for DCI links is exploding.
2. Geopolitical Consumption: Ongoing conflicts (e.g., Ukraine) have turned fiber into a "military consumable" for FPV drones, consuming ~15% of global supply.
3. Capacity Bottleneck: Major manufacturers are at 90%+ utilization, shifting production to high-margin specialty fibers (G.654.E/G.657A2), leaving standard G.652D in severe shortage.
4. Strategic Stockpiling: Governments are now treating fiber as a strategic reserve material, further constraining market availability.
What this means for you: Due to extreme volatility, we recommend securing your requirements immediately to avoid further price hikes and extended lead times (now 20+ weeks globally).
