Ethernet Connectors Market: Introduction
- Ethernet connectors are the cable in network cable which are used for wired connections to the internet. They are used to connect network elements such as Ethernet switches and Ethernet routers to computers, servers, and other network items. Ethernet interface can be connected using Ethernet cables.
- Earlier, Ethernet cables were unshielded, but later the shielded cables were developed to improve their performance. Unshielded cables are acceptable for short run between computer and router. However, shielded cable is best for longer runs where it passes through high electrical noise.
- Commonly used network cables include Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, and Cat7. These cables come with different levels of performance. Hence, it is important to select the cable according to the application.
- In most offices and home environments, the Ethernet cable relies on twisted wire pairs for connectivity. This twisting of wires enables balanced currents, i.e. in one wire the current is moving in one direction and in the other the current is moving in the other direction.
Advantages of Ethernet cable fueling market growth
- The various advantages of Ethernet cable includes high speed & low latency, improved reliability and low security threats, and easy installation and connections. These benefits increase the performance of Ethernet cables over wireless connectivity for high speed transfer.
- Furthermore, the high reliability of cables for transmission of data and increasing need to deploy them is boosting the market growth. Besides, Ethernet cable connections are easy to set up and install as compared to wireless technology. These factors are increasing the market growth of Ethernet connectors.
Increasing applications of Ethernet connectors
- Ethernet connectors are used in residential, industrial, and commercial applications such as office buildings, healthcare sector, retail, transportation, and IT and telecom Also, increasing awareness about integrating factory installations and IT systems across various industries increases the demand for advanced industrial Ethernet in the market. However, limitations such as lack of availability of connection facilities may hamper the market growth.
