Growing installation of triple-play services to push product adoption
In terms of component, GPON market is categorized into product and service. The product segment held over 60% market share in 2022. Since ONT is regarded as necessary hardware installed at the user premise, transforming optical signals into electric signals, which is aiding segment expansion. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration report, in 2021, the U.S. electric utilities have about 111 million advanced smart metering infrastructure installations. The segment growth is also likely to be fueled by the increasing demand for triple-play services and high-speed internet connections.
Soaring need for communication services to foster demand for ONTs
Under product, GPON market is further classified into optical network terminal (ONT), optical line terminal (OLT), and others. ONT segment was valued at over USD 3 billion in 2022. The advent of 5G networks to meet the increased need for rapid communication services, along with the development of higher-performing cellular networks, is driving the demand for ONTs. Moreover, businesses are deploying ONT technological solutions in response to the rising network requirements, which is speculated to prove lucrative for the segment outlook.
Cost-effective performance to help XGS-PON technology gain traction
With respect to technology, industry is divided into XG-PON, 2.5 GPON, NG-PON2, and XGS-PON. GPON market share from the XGS-PON technology segment is foreseen to progress at over 15% CAGR through the forecast period. Operators are aided by the new XGS-PON standard (ITU G.9807.1, 2016) to overcome the difficulties associated with cost and performance. The technology removes wavelength tunability and mobility from TWDM-PON to establish a universal channel.

In terms of application, GPON market is segregated into other FTTX, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), and mobile backhaul. Mobile backhaul segment is expected to grow at over 15% CAGR from 2023 to 2032, the report claims. The recent development of next-generation networks such as LTE-A and 5G has encouraged telecom operators to deploy backhaul equipment to deliver low latency and high bandwidth communications.
Significant use of cutting-edge GPON to accelerate business segment share
Based on end-use, GPON market is classified into residential and business. The business segment is anticipated to reach a valuation of over USD 20 billion by 2032. GPON can effectively combine phone, data, and video onto a single fiber for enterprise networks. The adoption of next-generation GPON technology, such as XGS-PON, to improve enterprise networks is projected to boost market expansion. To cite an instance, in March 2022, Izzi, a management service organization, announced deploy Pacific Broadband Network’s netWatch and vendor-agnostic GPON management software.
Expansion of service delivery networks is driving IT & telecom firms to adopt GPON solutions
The business end-use segment is further divided into IT & telecom, healthcare, BFSI, government, and others. IT & telecom segment held over 45% of the market share in 2022 as a result of the heavy implementation of GPON by IT and telecom firms to modernize their service delivery network. For instance, in April 2022, Indian telecom giant HFCL Ltd. completed connecting 1,789 Gram Panchayats via the GPON network with above 7,765 OFC layouts. Furthermore, segment growth is also driven by the ongoing development and expansion of communications networks to meet the rising user demands.
