Koncept Analytics Report on Global Cables& Wires and Connectors Market

May 19, 2008 - PRLog -- The global cables wires industry was estimated to be worth US$140 billion in 2006. The energy cable segment dominates the industry with the highest share of 62%, followed by communication cables at the second spot. The global connectors industry was estimated at around US$40 billion in 2006. With a wide variety of connectors available in the market, they are broadly classified on the basis of their level of interconnect.

The ongoing practice of upgrading power grids in developed countries along with new installations in emerging markets is one of the major growth drivers. Another supporting factor in line is the capacity constraint faced by major players like Prysmian and General Cable Corp., which is eventually leading to increased margins.

Meanwhile, the global optical fibres market is fairly consolidated in nature with Draka Comteq as the world’s largest company with the highest market share of around 25%.

The active operators in the global industry for cable wires and connectors are Draka, General Cable, CommScope, Belden Inc. to name a few.

Analysts believe that factors like rising electronics market, improved speed and other features in existing products, and shorter product life cycles will prove helpful in the market growth in future.
