Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Fiber Optic Test Equipment (FOTE) Market in China 2015-2019" report to their offering.

FOTE Market in China Expected to Grow at a CAGR of 6.32% Over the Period 2014-2019

FOTE is an electronic optical instrument, a combination of a laser source, and a detector and is used to characterize optical fiber. FOTE accesses only one end of the fiber and makes multiple measurements, which are used to reveal defects and faults, and to determine the amount of signal loss at any point in a single optical fiber or complete network.

Increased R&D investments is one of the major trends upcoming in the market. Many major companies operating in the FOTE market in China are investing more into R&D. Companies are aiming to develop a technological edge over other players in the competitive market.

According to the report, increased placement of fiber optic in cable TV networks is one of the key drivers of the market. In response to rising competition in the broadband service market, many service providers have adopted the "triple play" delivery system, which incorporates voice, data, and video over a single connection.

Infrastructure limitations for fiber optic networks in emerging countries is one of the key challenges that the market faces. The demand for optical networks across China is increasing faster than vendors can develop optical network infrastructure. High civil engineering costs and issues surrounding delayed approvals to access roads, and barren land hinders the development process.
