According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global AEC Active Cable for Data Centers market size was valued at US$ 831 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 3591 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 21.5% during review period.
In 2025, global AEC Active Cable for Data Centers production reached approximately 1600.9 k units with an average global market price of around US$ 504.5 per unit. The production capacity for AEC Active Cable for Data Centers in 2025 was approximately 1700 k units. The typical gross profit margin for AEC Active Cable for Data Centers is between 20% and 40%. AEC (Active Electrical Cable) is a high-speed copper interconnect solution for data centers that integrates active signal-conditioning components—such as equalizers, retimers, or DSPs—inside the cable connectors. By enhancing signal integrity, AEC extends the reach of copper cables beyond passive DAC limits while retaining advantages in power efficiency, latency, and cost. AEC is widely used for short- to medium-reach connections between servers, switches, and accelerators, supporting 400G, 800G, and future higher-speed interfaces.
The AEC market in data centers is expanding rapidly, driven by the deployment of AI servers, HPC systems, and 400G/800G switching architectures. Compared with optical transceivers and AOCs, AEC offers clear advantages in cost and power consumption for typical short- to mid-reach applications (approximately 2–7 meters), making it an attractive solution for intra-rack and adjacent-rack connectivity. Demand is primarily driven by hyperscale cloud service providers and large AI clusters, and the market is expected to grow steadily as SerDes speeds increase and copper interconnect technologies continue to advance.
