New report records broadband market boom


The global broadband services market generated $410.82 billion in 2023 and is expected to generate $750.9 billion by 2030, Coherent Market Insights reports.

A major driver for the market is the increased adoption of internet services worldwide, alongside increasing digitization, the vast number of connected devices, and the demand for high-speed internet connectivity, the report shows.

Video-on-demand and streaming services are other factors boosting the need for high-speed internet.

The advent of 5G technology and the widespread use of fiber optic networks demonstrate a key trend in the market, the report shows.

5G steers the growth of the broadband services market as it has “revolutionized the broadband sector” with its “faster data transfer rates and reduced latency,” which enhances the browsing experience for businesses and consumers.

Fiber optic network trends are expected to continue, as fiber optic cables offer higher bandwidth and faster data transmission capabilities compared to other cables.

Although other areas within the broadband connection market, such as Wireless Satellite Cable and Digital Subscriber Lines, have their strengths and weaknesses, we can anticipate that these will have a lesser impact on the market than Fiber Optic, the report claims.
