Free Space Optical (FSO) Communication Market Size, Share, Scope, Analysis & Industry Growth by 2032

The Free Space Optical (FSO) communication market size was valued at USD 270.3 million in 2023 and is expected to be worth in USD 313.8 million 2024. The market is projected to reach USD 1,070.3 million by 2032, recording a CAGR of 16.6% during the forecast period.

Free Space Optical (FSO) communication is a line-of-sight communication technology that uses air as its medium to transfer data at a high speed with the help of modulated light beams, especially in urban areas. This technology does not need a separate physical cabling or spectrum licenses. The rising demand for high-speed optical communication to meet the growing needs of data-intensive applications, such as cloud computing, online gaming, and video streaming is expected to fuel the adoption of the Free Space Optical (FSO) communication technology.

The COVID-19 pandemic led to the delays in the deployment of technology and telecommunications infrastructure, leading to the temporary slowdown of the market growth.
