US Silicon Photonics Market: Cisco, Intel, Broadcom and Marvell Drive AI-Era Optical Connectivity Growth Through 2030
The US Silicon Photonics Market is entering a high-growth phase as artificial intelligence (AI), hyperscale data centers, cloud computing, high-performance computing (HPC), and 5G networks increase demand for faster and more energy-efficient data transmission. According to MarketsandMarkets, the US silicon photonics market was valued at USD 989.7 million in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 3,842.8 million by 2030 , registering a 31.2% CAGR during the forecast period. This rapid expansion reflects a fundamental shift in data-center architecture. Conventional electrical interconnects face increasing limitations in bandwidth, power consumption, latency, and scalability as AI workloads require massive volumes of data to move between GPUs, CPUs, memory, and networking equipment. Silicon photonics addresses these constraints by using optical signals and semiconductor-compatible manufacturing approaches to enable high-speed connectivity. Companies such as Cisco Systems, Intel, Broa...
