The global highly nonlinear fiber market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027). Highly nonlinear fiber is a type of passive optical fiber with the stronger and most flexible features compared to existing optical fibers. The fiber exhibits efficient and improved operations over other optical nonlinearities. A highly nonlinear fiber is designed for small mode areas and is composed of a highly nonlinear glass that is augmented to offer an efficient throughput in various end-user applications. 

The increasing application of highly nonlinear fiber in parametric amplification, pulse compression, and wavelength conversion is anticipated to witness significant growth for the market during the forecast period. Additionally, the growth of the market is expected to boost coupled with the rising demand for telecom signal processing across the globe in the telecommunication sector. Additionally, the significant increase in the implementation of fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) services to gain a higher bandwidth-intensive application for the efficient performance of networking devices is projected to drive the global highly nonlinear fiber market. 

Additionally, the key players present in the global highly nonlinear fiber market include Yangtze Optical Fiber and Cable, Furukawa Electric Corp., and others adopted various strategies that include product launches, and mergers & acquisitions, among others to remain competitive in the market. For instance, in August 2021, Furukawa Electric announced the launch of the FITEL S124M16 ribbon fusion splicer fiber cable to deal with the rapidly increasing data traffic and to replace a conventional 864-fiber.
