According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Step Index Multi-mode Fibre market size was valued at US$ 627 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1109 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 8.6% during review period.
Step Index Multi-mode Fibre is a type of optical fiber in which the core has a uniform refractive index and is surrounded by a cladding with a lower refractive index. This sharp refractive index difference creates a "step" profile, allowing multiple light modes to propagate simultaneously through the core. SIMMF is widely used in short-distance data communication, local area networks (LANs), and industrial applications due to its relatively low cost, ease of installation, and ability to carry high bandwidth over moderate distances. It is commonly deployed in backbone cabling, networking, and instrumentation systems where high-speed signal transmission is required over limited distances. In 2024, global Step Index Multi-mode Fibre production reached approximately 114.7 k kilometer, with an average global market price of around US$ 5.25 per meter.
The key driver of Step Index Multi-mode Fibre (SIMMF) is the growing demand for cost-effective, high-speed data transmission over short to medium distances in applications such as local area networks (LANs), data centers, and industrial automation. Its relatively low production cost, ease of installation, and capability to support multiple light modes simultaneously make it an attractive solution for short-range communication. Additionally, the increasing need for reliable, high-bandwidth connectivity in enterprise networks, education campuses, and industrial monitoring systems further fuels the adoption of step index multi-mode fibers globally.
