Direct Attach Cable Market is expected to Grow with a CAGR of 20.88% through 2030

The growing demand for high-speed data transmission, increasing adoption of cloud computing, and the need for efficient connectivity solutions in data centers are key drivers for the Direct Attach Cable Market.


According to TechSci Research report, “Direct Attach Cable Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030”, the Global Direct Attach Cable Market was valued at USD 13.21 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 41.58 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 20.88% during the forecast period. A key trend in the Direct Attach Cable market is the growing adoption of data center modernization and the rise of edge computing. As companies strive to reduce latency and improve the performance of their networks, they are increasingly focusing on upgrading their existing data centers with more efficient, high-performance interconnects. This modernization trend is fueling the demand for DACs, as they are well-suited for environments that require high-density connections and minimal cabling. Data centers are evolving to accommodate next-generation workloads, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, and real-time data processing, which require low-latency, high-speed connections. DACs, with their short-distance, high-bandwidth capabilities, are becoming an integral part of these infrastructures. Furthermore, the growth of edge computing, which involves processing data closer to the end-user to reduce latency and improve speed, is contributing to the increased need for DACs in decentralized networks. As businesses move data processing closer to where it is generated, the demand for efficient and high-performance interconnect solutions like DACs is expected to grow. Additionally, the push toward green data centers, which emphasize energy efficiency and sustainability, is likely to drive further DAC adoption, as these cables are typically more energy-efficient than other solutions such as fiber-optic cables. As data processing and storage become more decentralized, especially with the expansion of edge computing nodes, the DAC market is expected to experience sustained growth, driven by the need for reliable, high-speed, and cost-effective interconnectivity.
