By type, the single mode fiber are projected to hold the largest share of the dark fiber market during the forecast period.
The single mode fiber segment held the larger market share in 2022 and is expected to exhibit a higher growth during the forecast period. Single mode fiber is best suited for longer transmission distances, such as multi-channel television broadcast systems and long-distance telephony. Also, single mode fiber has lower fiber attenuation and transmits more information per unit of time than multimode fiber.
By network type, long haul segment is projected to exhibit highest CAGR for the dark fiber market during the forecast period.
The long-haul segment held the largest share of the dark fiber industry in 2022 and is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Long haul dark fiber is increasingly being used in video transmission, cloud computing, and 5G/4G/LTE mobile applications. These networks constitute the backbone of global networks wherein cost-effective upgrades and expansion to 100G and beyond are essential. The long-haul networks are widely applied in undersea cabling across long oceanic distances and at notional demarcation lines, thus attracting the participation of several dark fiber ecosystem players in terms of investments. For instance, in February 2023, Bharti Airtel (India) selected Ribbon Communications to deploy long-haul DWDM network. The deployment is based on a disaggregated approach, as part of Airtel’s modernization strategy to offer cost-effective 5G mobile backhaul and enterprise business connectivity through Northwestern India.

North America is expected to hold the largest share in the market by 2028.
The North American region is expected to hold the largest share of the dark fiber market during the forecast period. North America is the largest contributor to the dark fiber market due to the presence of dark fiber service providers in the US, including AT&T, Verizon Communications, Inc., CenturyLink, Inc., Consolidated Communications, and Exa Infrastructure (GTT communications Inc.) An increase in the use of data centers across various business verticals and the early adoption of the latest technologies are expected to contribute to market growth. Various US-based companies, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google, and Microsoft, are increasing their investments in data center construction. The growth will be driven by the US, wherein data centers manage the high volume of data generated, which fuels the market growth. Data centers use dark fiber optic cables to save on costs, improve latency, and provide redundancy. In North America, companies are focusing on expanding the fiber network proving high speeds. Several carriers, municipalities, and planned communities across the US are deploying smaller fiber networks. Cities such as Bristol, Virginia; Burlington, Vermont; Lafayette, Louisiana; Johnson City, Tennessee; Orono, Maine; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and the six counties around Chattanooga, Tennessee are served by the Electric Power Board.
Key Market Players
Major vendors in the dark fiber companies include AT&T (US), Verizon Communications, Inc. (US), CenturyLink (Lumen Technologies) (US) Colt Technology Services Group Limited (UK), Comcast Corporation (US), Consolidated Communications (US), Exa Infrastructure (GTT Communications, Inc.)

SINGAPORE, Feb. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In the wake of the recent $1.5 billion hack affecting a major cryptocurrency exchange, HTX hosted a live discussion on X and its Global Advisor Justin Sun addressed the growing security concerns in the cryptocurrency industry. The discussion, titled “Together Against Industry Crisis, Is There a Best Solution for the Security of the Crypto Industry?” featured insights from leading security firms SlowMist and GoPlus Security, as well as prominent KOLs.
Security: A Top Priority for HTX
Sun stressed that security is a “top priority”, demanding constant vigilance and learning. He illustrated how hacker tactics have evolved, from early hot wallet attacks to more sophisticated multi-signature wallet breaches, and declared that exchanges must continuously enhance their security protocol.
Sun emphasized that security is like personal health management, requiring internal efforts and a proactive approach. HTX has implemented multi-device login, remote login alerts, abnormal transfer alerts, and other security features, and has publicly disclosed Merkle Tree Proof of Reserve (PoR) for 28 consecutive months, maintaining reserve ratios exceeding 100%.
Sun’s Influence on Security Practices Across the Crypto Landscape
Sun’s commitment to security extends to his vision for HTX and his influential role in shaping security practices across the broader crypto landscape. He believes that the principle of security is considered fundamental to every business and product. He cited the early implementation of native multi-signature functionality in TRON as a successful example of proactive security design, demonstrating his commitment to building security into the foundation of his projects. He also highlighted the recent launch of USDD 2.0, emphasizing the deep understanding of stablecoin security risks that informed its development. “Just as exchanges should strengthen security mechanisms from the source in system design and operation, to maximize the prevention of security incidents,” Sun stated.
Sun also revealed that HTX collaborates with numerous white hat teams to conduct continuous penetration testing, security drills, and vulnerability mining. The platform actively monitors global cryptocurrency security incidents and studies hacker attack principles and methods for effective prevention.
Addressing the Situation and Industry Cooperation
Regarding the controversy surrounding CZ’s suggestion for the affected exchange to suspend withdrawals, Sun acknowledged the validity of the advice from an exchange perspective. He explained that the initial hours after a security breach are crucial for investigating the issue and ensuring safety. While suspending withdrawals is necessary to eliminate risks, the suspension period should be minimized to reduce user impact.
Sun called for closer cooperation between exchanges, security agencies, and the community to jointly address hacker threats, promote technological sharing, security innovation, and information exchange, and promote the healthy and sustainable development of the industry.
HTX’s Commitment to User Safety
HTX demonstrates its commitment to security through a proactive and continuously improving approach. The platform’s multi-faceted security strategy encompasses collaboration with leading security experts, rigorous ongoing monitoring, robust internal protocols, and a focus on enhancing multi-signature support, security alerts, and mitigating emerging threats such as hashtag scams. This comprehensive strategy reflects HTX’s dedication to safeguarding user assets and fostering a secure and reliable trading environment. This commitment was further emphasized by the specific security protocol requirements shared by Justin Sun at the February 21st Meetup in Hong Kong.
