The large-scale construction of 3G in 2009 made the communication cable companies earn enough money, and the supply of optical fiber and cable was in short supply. However, the good times did not last long. After entering 2010, the three major operators have reduced their expenditures and their investment in network construction has dropped sharply. In early 2010, many cable companies expressed concern about the cable market in 2010.
On the one hand, after 2009, the market demand for fiber optic cables has become saturated, and cable companies are faced with the problem of overcapacity. In order to maintain their competitiveness, companies have all transitioned to the upstream areas of optical fiber manufacturing. As a result, a series of transformation challenges have emerged. . On the other hand, due to the large-scale construction of 3G in 2009, the supply of optical fiber cables was in short supply, and a large number of small cable companies were spawned. In early 2010, the cable market showed a decrease in market demand and the product was homogenized. Small high-tech companies have gradually been eliminated, but this part of the market has caused some turmoil in the market through unfair competition means such as malicious price cuts.
As domestic cable companies still have a large gap in upstream technologies such as optical fiber preforms compared to overseas cable giants, 2010 is exactly the date on which fiber anti-dumping expires in five years. In the case of sluggish market conditions, overseas cables The possible dumping of enterprises has caused domestic cable companies to worry, and the haze has been permeating the market.
In the second half of the year, the related financial reports of the cable companies showed that the entire situation began to change. Through the analysis of the profit sources of several companies, it can be seen that big trends such as broadband construction, radio and television network transformation, and smart grid ensure the stable development of the entire market. In the first half of this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued documents to encourage operators to improve the broadband network in urban and rural areas. China Telecom and China Unicom have added additional investment in fixed-line broadband; the introduction of the triple play policy has accelerated the broadcasting and TV industry to accelerate NGB. In the network construction, various localities have made bidirectional transformation of the coaxial cable; the cooperation between the State Grid and China Telecom has also promoted the wide application of power fiber to the home. The national grid has piloted the smart grid in several provinces and cities and is expected to achieve scale. Promotion.
The rise of OPLC cable
On July 2 of this year, the State Grid Corporation of China and China Telecom Corporation signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement in Beijing. The two sides determined that further cooperation will be carried out in the power grid and communications fields to promote industrial development, enhance brand image, and improve service levels. The handshake between the two sides triggered a wave of smart grid construction.
In 2010, the State Grid plans to build the first batch of electric fiber pilot communities in 20 cities in 14 provinces, covering a total of approximately 47,000 users. The first batch of electric fiber pilot sites have already started in Henan, Chongqing, and Shenyang. The first batch of 81 residential units in Shenyang will all be connected to the power fiber-to-the-home system. The introduction of this pilot project led to the rise of OPLC (optical fiber composite low voltage cable).
OPLC cable can solve the reasonable use of resources, in line with the national concept of low-carbon green. It is reported that the US smart grid plans to increase the current 65% of home fiber broadband access rate to 90%, thus helping users to understand and manage their own energy consumption, and reduce power consumption by 5 to 15%, which means that each household can save 60 per year. ~$180, while only 1% of users currently have access to data. At the same time, smart devices connected to the grid can arrange energy-intensive work during periods when electricity consumption is low at night, using renewable energy as much as possible.
OPLC has been widely deployed in various pilot sites, and its application effect is good. Pilot cities such as smart homes and smart meter reading have also been rapidly developed. It is understood that OPLC's profitability is also very broad, with a gross margin of 50%. Due to the small demand of OPLC cables, it is mainly used in the network construction of several pilot cities. At present, several cable companies already have OPLC's scale production capacity. With the gradual promotion of the national grid for smart grids, OPLC cables will welcome Come to a broader market.
Breakthrough in plastic optical fiber
On May 11th, the Institute of Physical and Chemical Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences announced that it had overcome the technical difficulties of directly producing polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) mutant plastic optical fibers from the bulk polymerization process and mastered the batch production of plastic optical fiber technology. The Institute has now produced millions of meters of low-loss mutant plastic optical fiber, breaking the monopoly of Japanese companies.
With the construction of FTTH scale, the difficulty of entering the home becomes more and more obvious. The concentrated performance is that ODN wiring is difficult and the existing optical fiber is weak in bending resistance. Under this situation, operators urgently need higher-performance optical fibers to cope with the challenges of entering homes, and plastic optical fibers are able to cope with this problem.
The advantage of plastic optical fiber in short-distance transmission is obvious, mainly in the following aspects. Good bending resistance, good tensile resistance, high bandwidth, low cost, easy coupling, easy connection, easy construction, low overall cost, anti-jamming, suitable for applications under complex electromagnetic environment, long life, copper wire 2～ 3 times. However, plastic optical fiber is still unable to replace quartz optical fiber. The main drawback is still that the transmission loss is high.
From the point of view of the entire industry, the domestic plastic optical fiber industry still has a small gap with foreign countries, but this year's plastic optical fiber still achieved not a small success, the entire industry chain has basically formed, and began to compete in the access network market.
