According to the statistical analysis of the wire and cable branch of the China Electrical Appliance Industry Association, although there are many varieties of photoelectric cables, the market is huge. However, in recent years, some product markets have shrunk, while other product markets have expanded rapidly. 1. RF cable market concentration is high. In recent years, China's mobile communication with RF (radio frequency) cable has been rapid development, market demand increased by more than 30%.

According to the statistical analysis of the wire and cable branch of the China Electrical Appliance Industry Association, although there are many varieties of photoelectric cables, the market is huge. However, in recent years, some product markets have shrunk, while other product markets have expanded rapidly. 1. RF cable market concentration is high. In recent years, China's mobile communication with RF (radio frequency) cable has been rapid development, market demand increased by more than 30%. From the perspective of product quality, the technical indicators of domestic RF cable products have fully caught up with the level of similar foreign products as early as the end of the 20th century, and individual indicators are slightly better than foreign products, which fully meet the requirements of domestic users and are accepted by most users. From the technology development trend, in the mobile communication network and base station construction using optical fiber remote technology, and in the antenna to receive the signal immediately after the photoelectric conversion, with soft cable components to the signal to the ground, that has appeared in the corrugated conductor cable replacement products. Experts estimate that the current growth momentum of RF cables can be maintained for 2 to 3 years, and soft fiber optic cable components will replace part of the market. Therefore, enterprises should be cautious in investing in communication RF cables. 2. communication cable market shrinks. The communications cable market has declined significantly. As most local cables are replaced by fiber optic cables, the demand is almost zero, and the number of cables required for each additional telephone user is declining. It is estimated that the decline has reached more than 50 per cent. The reason is obvious, the number of fixed-line users in China has been negative growth for many years. 3. data cable technology upgrades quickly. The data cable market continues to expand, and many companies have transformed the serial lines originally used for the production of communication cables to meet the requirements of data cable manufacturing. Large companies producing communication cables are also equipped with advanced data cable production lines, reflecting the activity of this market. Data cable mainly includes five lines, six lines, enhanced five lines, six lines, seven lines. Unless shielded products, there are shielded products and jumper cables. 4. TV cable must improve product quality. TV cable is a large-scale and wide-ranging product in electronic cables. China's CATV (cable television) cable has experienced nearly 30 years of development and has become the world's largest producer and exporter, with exports accounting for about 50% of production. According to data from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, the annual demand for CATV cables in China amounts to 3 million kilometers. China's TV cable has gone through several stages of development, from solid core polyethylene insulation to chemical foam insulation, longitudinal hole (lotus) insulation and physical foam insulation. At present, physical foam insulation is widely used, collectively referred to as the fourth generation TV cable. Copper-clad aluminum wire is commonly used as the inner conductor material, and aluminum-magnesium alloy wire is used as the outer conductor. TV cable high-end and low-end product market differentiation is obvious, a small number of enterprises adhere to the road of high-quality, high-end development, the corresponding product prices are also higher; most of the enterprise product quality is not guaranteed, there is a suspicion of shoddy, the corresponding product prices are also low, this phenomenon has attracted the attention of the industry. Experts appeal that we should pay attention to brand building, and that products made in China should not be allowed to become "cheap goods" abroad, and that Chinese famous brands must be created. Due to the soaring price of copper and has been oscillating at a high level, in recent years, CATV cables are also using copper-clad aluminum wires as outer conductors. Some enterprises are doing comparative tests, and foreign companies are also demonstrating the rationality of material renewal. Electronic cables also include many products, such as computer cables, consumer electronics cables, automotive cables, etc., with a wide variety and a huge market in the future.
