Japan Strengthens Its Role as a Strategic APAC Connectivity Hub

The global submarine cable systems market is surging as digital economies demand unprecedented bandwidth for cloud computing, AI, 5G, and international data traffic. According to DataM Intelligence, the market is set to expand at a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13% during 2024-2031, fueled by over 50 major projects worth US$7.2 billion announced between 2019-2021 and rising investments in hyperscale data centers.​

Market Overview
Submarine cable systems form the backbone of global connectivity, carrying over 99% of international data traffic through fiber-optic cables laid across ocean floors. These systems include cables, repeaters, landing stations, and upgrade services, enabling high-capacity, low-latency transmission for telecoms, internet giants, and governments.​

Explosive growth in internet usage, video streaming, edge computing, and offshore renewables drives demand. Rapid 5G rollouts and data center expansions-projected to grow at 10.3% CAGR through 2026-necessitate robust undersea infrastructure, with web-scale players like Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon increasingly funding private cables.​

Market Dynamics
Rising global internet traffic and data center proliferation are primary drivers, as cloud services and AI applications require terabit-scale capacities. 5G backhaul, offshore wind farms, and emerging economies' connectivity needs further accelerate deployments, with Asia-Pacific leading via China Mobile's data hubs and massive cable projects linking Singapore-Hong Kong.​

Challenges include high installation costs, complex maintenance, and geopolitical risks to cable routes. However, advancements in multi-pair fibers (≥25-pair systems growing at 19.4% CAGR) and automated installation mitigate these, while investments in repair vessels and AI monitoring enhance resilience.​

Segmentation Analysis
The market segments by component, service, voltage, application, and region.​
Components feature cables (dominant at high-capacity builds), repeaters, and landing stations. Services divide into installation (leading due to trenching/plowing innovations), maintenance/upgrades, and commissioning. Voltage types include high-voltage for power cables and low/medium for telecom/data. Applications span telecom/data transmission (largest share), offshore energy, and defense.​
9-16 fiber pair cables hold 45.4% capacity share, but space-division multiplexing (SDM) systems are surging for AI traffic demands.​

Regional Insights
North America leads with established infrastructure and tech giants' investments, holding the largest share amid data center booms. Asia-Pacific grows fastest, propelled by China's/Taiwan's offshore wind (fueling high-voltage cables) and regional hubs like Singapore.​

Europe benefits from transatlantic routes and renewables, while Middle East/Africa and Latin America expand via new connectivity corridors. Over 500 active cables span 1.4 million km globally, with APAC dominating new builds.​

Competitive Landscape and Key Developments
Key players include Alcatel Submarine Networks, NEC Corporation, Prysmian S.p.A., SubCom LLC, Hengtong Optic-Electric, Corning, Sumitomo Electric, and Global Marine Group.​

Recent moves emphasize high-capacity innovations: multi-year fiber draw agreements for cloud providers, AI-optimized repeaters, and joint ventures for SDM tech. Offshore wind cables see growth via China/Taiwan projects, while private systems by hyperscalers bypass traditional telcos.​
